The AirTAC Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X95S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 95mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC50X95S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). With a 50 mm bore and 95 mm stroke, it uses a 20 mm diameter piston rod with M16x1.5 threads, making it a robust mid-range actuator for general automation.
This model includes the -S suffix, meaning a built-in magnet is fitted as standard. This allows easy, direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors onto the tie-rod barrel for precise end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position feedback without external brackets.

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
The built-in magnet triggers CMSG/DMSG sensors clamped to the tie-rods, providing reliable open/close confirmation for safety interlocks or sequencing.
Mid-stroke sensor mounting enables multi-position stops, ideal for diverting parts on a conveyor where a full stroke is not required.
Delivers 1767 N at 0.9 MPa for consistent clamping force, with sensor confirmation ensuring the part is fully clamped before machining.
The SC50X95S suits applications needing position sensing. For higher force, the SC63 series provides 1559 N at 0.5 MPa; for a lighter, more compact unit, the SC40 offers 628 N. The 20 mm rod handles axial loads well, but for strokes over 300 mm or any side load, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bearing wear. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, the -S magnet option, and mounting style exactly.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 982 N extending and 825 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the extending force reaches 1767 N.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet. You can directly mount AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors on the barrel without any additional brackets or modifications.
