The AirTAC SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X710S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 710mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC50X710S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 710 mm stroke is within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore, making this a standard-configuration unit with a 20 mm diameter piston rod and M16x1.5 rod thread.
A built-in magnet (-S suffix) is integrated into the piston, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for contactless position sensing. The cylinder uses adjustable pneumatic cushioning (21 mm cushion length) at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly, and operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa with TPU seals rated for -20 to +70 °C.

The 710 mm stroke moves components between distant conveyor lanes or workstations. Sensor feedback from the built-in magnet confirms end-of-stroke position for reliable automation sequencing.
Actuates diverter gates or flippers on packaging lines. The 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa handles medium-weight product flow, while adjustable cushioning reduces impact noise at shift points.
Positions a stop or pusher plate across a palletising station. The sensor-ready barrel enables the control system to verify retract and extend positions without external flag sensors.
This 50 mm bore unit sits between the SC40 (628 N at 0.5 MPa) and the SC63 (1559 N at 0.5 MPa). If your load requires more force, stepping up to the 63 mm bore nearly doubles the push capacity; if speed or air consumption is a concern, the 40 mm bore may be sufficient for lighter tasks. For replacement, match five points: 50 mm bore, 710 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting configuration.
With a 710 mm stroke, the 20 mm rod is long enough that side loads or off-centre mounting can cause rod deflection and premature bearing wear. For applications where the rod must support a guided load or resist bending, pair this cylinder with an external linear guide or consider a guided-cylinder assembly to protect the rod bearing and piston seals.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder provides 982 N pushing and 825 N pulling force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1767 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so CMSG (reed) and DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors mount directly on the tie-rod barrel without any additional magnet bands or brackets.
