SMC MGQL50-50 Compact Cylinder

The SMC MGQL50-50 Compact Guide Cylinder is a 50 mm bore, 50 mm stroke double-acting actuator designed for high-load linear motion in tight spaces. It employs a ball bushing bearing for smooth, non-rotating travel and a rubber bumper cushion on both ends to absorb impacts, making it well-suited for repeatable material-handling tasks. This direct-mounted MGQ series cylinder features a 1/4 BSPT port (port thread BSPT) with a 20 mm rod and a single rod end, and it is rated for an operating pressure range from 0.1 to 1.0 MPa with a maximum of 1.0 MPa and a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa. It can operate in environments from −10 to +60 °C. Overall dimensions are 59 mm in height, 110 mm in length, and 140 mm in width, forming a compact footprint for space-constrained installations. Pull and push forces at 100 psi are 1,154 N and 1,374 N respectively, reflecting strong load-handling capability for precision positioning on conveyors or automated lines. The MGQL50-50 is part of SMC’s MGQ compact guide cylinder family, distinguished by its ball bearing guide and robust performance in demanding applications requiring accurate guidance under lateral loads.
