The AirTAC SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X700TC 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 SC50X700TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1767 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 700 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore, making it a standard-order actuator for medium-reach linear tasks.
This model features a 20 mm diameter piston rod, M16x1.5 rod thread, and PT1/4 ports. The TC suffix designates a centre trunnion mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC50TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke ends, protecting end caps from impact.

The 700 mm stroke and pivoting trunnion mount allow the cylinder to swing a diverter gate across a wide conveyor, sorting packages or materials by lane with controlled, cushioned motion.
Pivots a long clamping arm into place over a workpiece. The 982 N force at 0.5 MPa provides secure holding, while the TC mount lets the cylinder body swing as the clamp engages.
Opens and closes a discharge door on a large hopper or chute. The trunnion mount accommodates the door's arc of travel, and the 700 mm stroke provides the necessary linear travel for full opening.
Select the SC50 bore when your application requires between 500 N and 980 N of push force at standard plant pressure. If you need roughly 50% more force, step up to the SC63 bore (1559 N push at 0.5 MPa); for lighter, faster tasks, the SC40 bore (628 N push) may be sufficient. The centre trunnion TC mount is ideal for applications where the cylinder body must swing through an arc.
For a 700 mm stroke, ensure the rod is guided if any side load is present—an unsupported 20 mm rod at full extension can bend under lateral force. Use an external guide rail or switch to a guided cylinder for off-axis loads. When replacing this unit, match bore (50 mm), stroke (700 mm), PT1/4 ports, centre trunnion mounting (TC), and the non-magnetic piston to guarantee dimensional and functional interchangeability.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), the push force is 982 N and the pull force is 825 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Its body length 'A' dimension (150 mm for the 50 bore) is shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 cylinder, so mounting dimensions and overall length will differ. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinder with matching stroke, port thread, and mounting.
