About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175
The AirTAC SE50AX175 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to ISO 15552 dimensions, delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (code A), making it highly suitable for corrosive environments or washdown duty where a standard carbon steel rod would fail.
The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both end caps allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, softening hard impacts when cycling at speed. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot host CMSE or DMSE position sensors without modification.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175 Is Used
Bottle Rinser Grippers
Utilizes the SUS420J2 stainless rod to withstand wet rinse stations, providing 982 N of push force to securely grip and invert beverage containers for sanitization.
Packaging Lane Diverters
Employs the 175 mm stroke to push cartons between sorting lanes, relying on the adjustable end cushions to prevent jarring product damage during high-speed diversion.
Food Processing Forming Presses
Leverages the tie-rod-free extruded profile for easy flush mounting on stainless steel machinery frames, applying up to 200 kgf of force to mold dough or protein products.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, compare its 982 N push at 0.5 MPa against its neighbors: the SE40 bore provides 628 N if you need a lighter footprint, while the SE63 bore offers 1559 N for heavier payloads. To replace an existing unit, match the 50 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and your required mounting hardware. Because this SKU has no internal magnet, you must source an -S variant if your control system requires CMSE or DMSE sensor feedback. At 175 mm of travel, side loading remains manageable, but always ensure the load is guided to prevent rod-bearing bending.
Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it does not function as a locking device. If your application must hold a vertical load without live air pressure, integrate an external rod lock like the BSE series or a pilot-operated check valve.
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 SE50AX175 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 SE50AX175 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares the exact same mounting footprint and PT1/4 port size as other standard profile cylinders. This allows for a direct drop-in replacement without needing to redrill mounting holes.
