The AirTAC B04-SC Construction Machinery Special Standard Cylinder B04-SC63X600S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 600mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The B04-SC63X600S is an AirTAC construction-machinery dedicated pneumatic cylinder, mechanically identical to the standard SC63X600S. The B04- prefix simply designates its optimization for heavy-equipment builders without altering the core physical specs. As a double-acting tie-rod cylinder, it delivers a push force of 1559 N at 0.5 MPa and 2805 N at 0.9 MPa.
Featuring a 63mm bore and a 600mm stroke, this unit includes a built-in magnet (S suffix) for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor mounting. It uses a 20mm piston rod, a PT1/4 port, and has a body length A of 153mm, yielding a total extended length of approximately 753mm. The adjustable cushion length is 28mm.

Drives heavy cab doors or access panels on earthmoving equipment, utilizing the 600mm stroke and magnetic piston for reliable position feedback in rugged environments.
Actuates diverter valves or discharge gates on concrete machinery where a 2805 N force at 0.9 MPa is required to move viscous material flows.
Lifts and lowers large engine access hoods on tractors and loaders, benefiting from the 28mm adjustable cushion to soften impact at the 600mm stroke end.
This 63mm bore provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 50mm bore (982 N) for lighter loads or up to an 80mm bore (2513 N) for heavier pushing requirements. The 600mm stroke requires careful attention to side loads. A 20mm rod over a 600mm extension is susceptible to bending under lateral loads, so an external guide or a guided cylinder should be used to prevent rod-bearing damage.
For a direct replacement, match the 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting style, and the built-in magnet (-S). This SC tie-rod cylinder is dimensionally shorter than ISO 15552 cylinders and is not a direct ISO replacement.
Quick checklist
The B04- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SC63X600S. It is mechanically and dimensionally identical to the standard SC cylinder, carrying the same 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, and 2805 N thrust at 0.9 MPa.
No, the SC cylinder does not lock or hold a load without live air pressure. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce impact. To hold a vertical load safely, you must use an external mechanical lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
