The AirTAC Airtac B04-SCD Specialized Standard Cylinder for Construction Machinery B04-SCD100X800S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø25mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø100mm bore, 800mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B04-SCD100X800S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B04- prefix designates it as a construction-machinery dedicated variant of the standard SCD100X800S. Mechanically, it shares identical specifications with the base model, offering a 100 mm bore and an 800 mm stroke. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective pressure area is equal in both directions, generating 3681 N of thrust and retraction force at 0.5 MPa, and a robust 6626 N at 0.9 MPa.
This symmetric force output makes it highly effective for heavy-duty two-sided actuation on job-site equipment. The Ø25 mm rod protrudes from both ends, providing dual tooling mounting points and improved anti-rotation stability. A built-in magnet is included (-S), allowing CMSG or DMSG sensors to track piston position along the 29 mm adjustable cushions at each stroke end.

| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 29 mm |

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCD (double-rod) datasheet. Because the rod runs through both caps, the effective area is (bore² − rod²) in both directions. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N | 5154 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf | |
Push and pull are EQUAL on a double-rod cylinder — both chambers lose the rod area, so effective area = (bore² − rod²) each way. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Drives heavy transfer carriages on construction machinery, using the equal push and pull force to move materials back and forth without needing different pressure settings.
Mounts a clamp on the front rod and a stopper flag on the rear rod, allowing one cylinder to execute synchronized two-sided tasks on an excavator attachment.
Uses the built-in magnet with DMSG sensors on the barrel to confirm the 800 mm stroke position in dusty environments, triggering the next step in the machine cycle.
Select this 100 mm bore when your heavy equipment application requires substantial equal force in both directions (5153 N at 0.7 MPa). If your mechanism only needs one-sided pushing, the single-rod AirTAC SC100X800 is a lighter, more compact alternative. Conversely, if the 800 mm stroke exposes the rod to severe side loads from heavy off-center tooling, step up to a fully guided cylinder rather than relying on the through-rod alone. To replace this unit, match the 100 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S magnetic sensor option.
Double-rod checklist
The B04- prefix indicates this is AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SCD100X800S double-rod cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, featuring the same 100 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, and 5153 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa.
No. The 29 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of the stroke to prevent impact damage. If the machine must hold a suspended load without live air pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve.
