About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X715TC
The SC50X715TC 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-bore actuator for medium-load linear tasks. Its 715 mm stroke is within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 50 mm bore, and the total extended body length reaches 865 mm (150 mm body length A + 715 mm stroke).
This model is factory-configured with a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC50TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot as the rod extends and retracts. It uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod with an M16x1.5 thread, PT1/4 ports, and adjustable air cushioning with a 21 mm cushion length to decelerate the piston quietly at each end of the stroke.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X715TC Is Used
Pivoting Conveyor Diverter
The centre trunnion mount allows the SC50X715TC to swing a diverter gate or sorting arm on a conveyor line, directing packages with a controlled 715 mm stroke arc.
Clamp & Weld Fixture Actuation
Ideal for pivoting a welding clamp or holding fixture into position. The 1767 N max force at 0.9 MPa provides a secure grip on steel fabrications during assembly.
Agricultural Equipment Linkage
Used as a linear actuator on a pivoting linkage for a chute door or hopper gate on farm machinery, where the TPU seals handle dusty, ambient-temperature environments reliably.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X715TC the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50X715TC when your application needs a 50 mm bore actuator that can pivot, handling push forces around 982 N at standard plant pressure. If your load consistently exceeds 1400 N, consider stepping up to the SC63 bore, which provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. For lighter, fixed-mount tasks under 628 N, the SC40 bore is a more compact alternative.
At a 715 mm stroke, the 20 mm rod is robust, but any significant side loading requires an external guide rail or rod alignment coupler to prevent bending stress on the rod bearing. For a direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 715 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and ensure the replacement cylinder has a built-in magnet only if your sensors require it (this model does not include a magnet).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X715TC FAQ
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 increases to 1767 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. You must replace it with another AirTAC SC50 tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, and TC centre trunnion mount.
