About the AirTAC SCL50
The AirTAC SCL50 is a double-acting end-lock tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm bore and a 20 mm piston rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 982 N and pulls 825 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 1374 N push and 1155 N pull. Force depends on bore and pressure only, so every stroke on this page gives the same output.
All SCL50 versions share 1/4" air ports, an M16×1.5 rod thread and adjustable air cushions. The cylinder runs on filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 30 to 800 mm/s. This page lists 97 stock order codes with strokes from 25 to 1500 mm; catalog standard strokes run up to 1200 mm, and the longer codes are non-standard strokes that we confirm with the quote.
The SCL50 adds a mechanical lock to one end cover: SCLF codes have it in the front (rod-end) cover and SCLB codes in the rear cover. The lock holds the piston at that end of the stroke while the port on the lock side is exhausted, so the rod does not move if the air supply is lost; air on that port releases it automatically, and a hand lever releases it manually. The catalog gives no holding-force figure for the lock.

| Lock position | Front cover (F) or rear cover (B) |
| Lock release | Automatic (air on the lock-side port) or manual lever |

Theoretical output force (Ø50 mm)
| Pressure | Push | Pull |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1155 N |
Push = pressure × bore area; pull subtracts the Ø20 mm rod area. Usable force is lower because of friction and back-pressure.

Where the SCL50 Is Used
General automation
About 982 N at 0.5 MPa covers most pushing, lifting and indexing tasks.
Holding at the stroke end
The lock keeps the rod at the locked end when the air supply is cut.
Vertical and inclined axes
Lifting units that must not drift down from the locked end when the air is off.
Choosing the Right SCL50 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length, weight and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Then choose the mounting. Basic (no code) uses the cylinder's own mounting holes. This bore is stocked with LB foot, FA front flange, FB rear flange, CA single clevis, TC center trunnion. Foot and flange mountings hold the cylinder rigid for straight-line loads; clevis and trunnion mountings let it pivot when the load moves in an arc.
Finally pick the version. It starts with the lock position: F locks the piston at the front (rod-end) cover, B at the rear cover, so choose the end where the load must be held. Then: S adds a magnet for position sensors.
AirTAC SCL50 FAQ
The position of the lock. F has it in the front (rod-end) cover and holds the piston at that end of the stroke; B has it in the rear cover and holds the piston at the other end. Bore, force and mountings are the same.
Supply air to the port on the lock side and the lock releases automatically; it can also be released by hand with the lever. AirTAC advises against 3-position valves (closed or pressure center) for this cylinder, because pressure trapped on the lock side stops the lock from engaging.
No. Every SCL50 gives about 982 N push and 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa, whatever the stroke.
1/4" ports, PT thread as standard.
Basic plus LB foot, FA front flange, FB rear flange, CA single clevis, TC center trunnion. Use foot or flange for straight-line loads, clevis or trunnion when the cylinder must pivot.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke, mounting and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
0.15 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa) and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
No. You can order a single SCL50. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
