About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10
The AirTAC SE50AX10 is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for short-stroke actuation in harsh environments. It features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (code A) for superior corrosion resistance in washdown or chemical-duty settings. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it bridges the gap between light-duty and heavy industrial tasks.
Unlike traditional tie-rod designs, this actuator utilizes a square extruded aluminum barrel without external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush to machinery while resisting external corrosion. The field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, softening hard mechanical stops during high-speed 30-800 mm/s operations.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10 Is Used
Pharmaceutical Washdown Ejector
Utilizing the SUS420J2 stainless rod, this 982 N cylinder pushes parts off a sterilization conveyor, enduring frequent chemical washdowns without rod pitting.
Form-Fill-Seal Film Cut
The 10 mm short stroke provides rapid, precise knife actuation on a packaging line, leveraging 1374 N at 0.7 MPa to sever thick polymer films cleanly.
PCB Test Fixture Clamp
Holding delicate circuit boards against test probes, the compact tie-rod-free profile mounts flush within dense testing machinery without obstructing adjacent modules.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this bore, stepping down to a 40 mm cylinder reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 628 N, whereas stepping up to a 63 mm bore increases it to 1559 N. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSE or DMSE position sensors; if your PLC requires end-of-stroke confirmation, select an SE50X10S variant instead. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, it serves as a drop-in replacement sharing standard mounting hardware and PT1/4 ports. Note that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not hold a load if air pressure is lost.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE 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 (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the SE50AX10 delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 1374 N. The maximum push force is 200 kgf when operated at the 1.0 MPa pressure limit.
Yes, the SE50AX10 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares identical mounting footprint and rod thread dimensions (M16x1.5) with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, allowing a direct drop-in retrofit.
