About the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175S
The AirTAC SE50AX175S is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding pneumatic tasks. It delivers a robust 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, extending smoothly over a 175 mm stroke. Built with a corrosion-resistant SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A), it is specifically tailored for washdown or chemically exposed environments.
This unit features a square extruded aluminum barrel without external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush while resisting external corrosion. The integrated magnet (code S) enables precise position tracking using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. Furthermore, field-adjustable air cushions at both ends allow you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, softening hard impacts during high-speed cycling.

Where the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175S Is Used
Pouch Filling Heads
Drives the vertical sealing and cutting mechanism on continuous flow packaging lines, utilizing the 982 N push force and SUS420J2 rod to withstand washdown chemicals.
Bottle Divert Gates
Actuates routing gates on high-speed bottling conveyors, where the 175 mm stroke provides ample travel and the built-in magnet triggers DMSE sensors for timing.
Lab Sample Racks
Positions sample trays in clinical analyzers, benefiting from the smooth adjustable cushioning at both ends to prevent cross-contamination of fluids.
Is the Airtac SE50 Standard Cylinder SE50AX175S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, note the SE50 bore provides 982 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push, conserving space and air. Conversely, if your load demands more thrust, stepping up to the 63 mm bore provides 1559 N push. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it relies on live air pressure to maintain position; if air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift and cannot hold a load. For applications requiring true position holding, consider the BSE rod-lock variant.
At 175 mm stroke, the M16x1.5 rod thread and Ø20 mm rod carry moderate side loads effectively, but long unsupported strokes still risk rod-bearing bending. For heavy lateral loads, utilize an external guide rail to prevent premature wear. This model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders using standard mounting hardware and a PT1/4 port.
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 SE50AX175S 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. The maximum push force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
No. The adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a brake. If air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. For true position holding without live pressure, use a BSE rod-lock cylinder or an external pilot-operated check valve.
