About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX100
The AirTAC SE50AX100 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Driven by a Ø20 mm rod with an M16x1.5 thread, it operates at speeds between 30-800 mm/s via a PT1/4 port. This specific configuration uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A), making it highly suitable for environments exposed to moisture or requiring frequent washdowns.
Unlike traditional tie-rod designs, this actuator features a square extruded aluminum barrel that integrates sensor grooves on three sides, allowing flexible mounting of position switches without extra brackets. The unit includes field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends, letting technicians fine-tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to eliminate hard impacts during high-speed cycles. Note that this SKU ships without a built-in magnet, so it does not support direct CMSE or DMSE sensor mounting.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX100 Is Used
Pouch Filling Heads
Drives the vertical reciprocating motion of filling nozzles on vertical form-fill-seal machines, using the 100 mm stroke and 982 N force to manage liquid product flow.
Bottle Divert Gates
Actuates routing flaps on stainless steel conveyor lines in beverage plants, where the SUS420J2 rod withstands daily washdowns and caustic cleaning agents.
Lab Centrifuge Lids
Provides the 982 N push to raise and lower heavy safety shields on laboratory centrifuges, relying on adjustable cushioning to prevent lid slamming.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX100 the Right Cylinder?
Delivering 982 N push at 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore is a versatile mid-range actuator. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push, while upgrading to a 63 mm bore provides 1559 N for heavier loads. Because this is a standard double-acting cylinder, it cannot hold a load in place if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; for position-holding safety, consider the BSE rod-lock variant. To retrofit an existing fixture, match the 100 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface, ensuring you specify the SUS420J2 rod for corrosive environments.
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 SE50AX100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N, with a maximum push capacity of 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE50AX100 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares the exact same mounting interface and footprint as other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. Just ensure your setup accommodates the PT1/4 port and M16x1.5 rod thread.
