About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10S
The AirTAC SE50AX10S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact, washdown-duty automation. Delivering a robust 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles demanding linear motion tasks effortlessly. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods entirely, yielding a flush, corrosion-resistant exterior that simplifies flush mounting and reduces debris buildup in tight machinery spaces.
This specific configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for superior resistance to moisture and harsh cleaning chemicals. The integrated -S magnet enables precise end-of-stroke detection using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. Furthermore, the field-adjustable air cushioning at both stroke ends allows technicians to fine-tune end-cap deceleration, smoothly absorbing kinetic energy rather than relying on a fixed rubber bumper.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10S Is Used
Stainless Food Conveyor Diverter
Leveraging the 982 N push force and SUS420J2 washdown-rated rod, this cylinder reliably actuates sorting gates on food-grade conveyor lines exposed to daily chemical washdowns.
PCB Clamping Fixture
The 10 mm stroke provides rapid, precise clamping of delicate printed circuit boards during automated soldering or inspection, utilizing the -S magnet for immediate position confirmation.
Carton Sealing Press
Delivers high-speed, short-stroke actuation for sealing jaws on continuous flow packaging equipment, where the adjustable air cushion fine-tunes the rapid cycle stops to prevent mechanical shock.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX10S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, evaluate your force margins carefully. Stepping down to the 40 mm bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push output to 628 N, whereas stepping up to the 63 mm bore increases it significantly to 1559 N. If your machinery must maintain a stationary load during air loss or valve centering, note that a standard SE cylinder will drift; an AirTAC BSE rod-lock variant is required for true holding. Because the stroke is a compact 10 mm, side-load stress on the M16x1.5 threaded rod bearing is minimal, though long unsupported strokes always demand an external guide. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, it serves as a direct drop-in retrofit for matching 50 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and standard mounting footprints without altering existing machine plates.
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 SE50AX10S FAQ
This 50 mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 982 N and a pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 1374 N. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, where it achieves a peak push force of 200 kgf.
Yes, the SE50AX10S features a standardized ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 mounting interface, making it dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders. However, it does not hold loads pneumatically; if air pressure is lost, the piston will drift. For dead-stop holding, use a BSE series rod lock.
