The AirTAC Airtac B04-SCD Specialized Standard Cylinder for Construction Machinery B04-SCD63X225S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø20mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø63mm bore, 225mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B04-SCD63X225S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B04- prefix designates it as a construction-machinery dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD63X225S. The through-rod design yields identical push and pull thrust of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, peaking at 2523 N at 0.9 MPa.
Because the Ø20 mm piston rod exits both end caps, the effective pressure area is balanced. This 225 mm stroke unit features adjustable cushions (28 mm length) and a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG sensors. The retracted body length A(SCD) is 210 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 | 1402 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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 balanced actuation arms on heavy equipment where the rear rod operates a secondary mechanical linkage.
Pushes and pulls a workpiece carrier with identical 1402 N force, ensuring consistent timing in both directions.
Provides enhanced rod guidance for assembly tooling that requires resistance to torsional deflection.
Select this 63 mm bore when an application requires equal force both directions and a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or a stopper. If your machine needs less thrust, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier loads, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if rear-side tooling is unnecessary.
At 225 mm stroke, side loading can bend the unsupported rod; use an external guide rail. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option.
Double-rod checklist
The B04- prefix indicates this is a construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SCD63X225S. It shares the exact same physical specs, 1402 N force, and dimensions as the base model.
The double-rod design provides equal push and pull force (1402 N at 0.5 MPa) and allows mounting tooling on the rear rod. Note that air pressure is required to hold a load; use a mechanical lock if the load must stay up when air is cut.
