The AirTAC SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X700CAY is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 700mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC50X700CAY is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 1767 N at 0.9 MPa, making it a capable mid-range actuator for industrial automation. With a 50 mm bore, 20 mm rod, and a 700 mm stroke, this model features a rear single clevis (CA) mount for pivoting applications, allowing the cylinder to swing as it extends and retracts.
The cylinder body length A is 150 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 850 mm. It uses a PT1/4 port and an M16x1.5 rod thread, with an adjustable air cushion of 21 mm at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The standard TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C. As a genuine AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder, it is engineered for consistent performance in demanding environments.

Operates chute diverters and hopper gates on harvesters and conveyors, with the rear clevis mount allowing the cylinder to follow the arc of the gate linkage without binding.
Provides the clamping force for jigs and fixtures in fabrication shops. The clevis mount allows the cylinder to pivot into position, accommodating part variation.
Pushes or pulls diverter arms on packaging and sorting lines. The 700 mm stroke handles wide conveyor sections, and the adjustable cushion reduces impact at end-of-stroke.
The SC50X700CAY suits applications needing a 700 mm stroke with pivoting freedom at the cap end. The rear single clevis (CA) mount, part code F-SC50CA, allows the cylinder body to pivot, absorbing misalignment in one plane. For higher force, consider stepping up to the 63 mm bore (1559 N at 0.5 MPa); for a smaller footprint, the 40 mm bore provides 628 N.
At a 700 mm stroke, the 20 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads. Use an external guide rail or rod support to prevent rod bearing damage and ensure long seal life. For direct replacement, match bore (50 mm), stroke (700 mm), PT1/4 port thread, CA clevis mount, and ensure the replacement is a genuine AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the cylinder produces 1374 N pushing force and 825 N pulling force. The maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf (1961 N).
Yes, the 'Y' suffix typically denotes a specific factory-assigned variant or batch code, but the core mechanical dimensions—50 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, CA clevis mount, and PT1/4 ports—are identical to the standard SC50X700CA. Always verify the clevis pin diameter and overall extended length match your existing installation.
