The AirTAC Airtac B04-SCD Specialized Standard Cylinder for Construction Machinery B04-SCD80X350S 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. Ø80mm bore, 350mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B04-SCD80X350S is AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SCD80X350S double-rod cylinder, mechanically identical to the standard unit. The B04- prefix simply denotes its dedication to heavy-equipment builders. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 3175 N at 0.7 MPa.
Featuring a 350 mm stroke and a 25 mm rod protruding from both ends, this model provides excellent anti-rotation characteristics and symmetric bearing loading. It includes an adjustable cushion of 28 mm to decelerate the piston at stroke ends, and a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor tracking. The retracted length is longer than a single-rod SC cylinder due to its body length A(SCD) of 257 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 | 2268 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3175 N | 3175 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 463 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 robust bidirectional mechanisms on construction machinery where the B04- prefix indicates dedicated heavy-equipment integration and equal force both ways is required.
Moves materials symmetrically using tooling mounted on both rod ends, ensuring balanced loading and preventing rotation during transit.
Pushes and pulls heavy workpieces with high lateral stability, leveraging the dual-rod guidance to resist twisting forces in compact machinery.
This 80 mm bore delivers 3175 N of thrust each way at 0.7 MPa, making it a solid fit for heavy-duty construction-machine actuation. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1962 N. If you only need unidirectional thrust and want to save space, a single-rod SC cylinder is preferable, though you lose the equal bidirectional force and rear-rod tooling mounting.
For a 350 mm stroke, the extended unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under side loads; use an external guide rail or select a fully guided cylinder to prevent premature seal wear. When replacing this unit, match the 80 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option exactly.
Double-rod checklist
The B04- prefix designates this as a construction-machinery dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD80X350S, offering the same 3175 N equal push/pull force, 350 mm stroke, and PT3/8 port.
No. The adjustable 28 mm cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of stroke; it does not lock or hold the load. If the machine must hold position without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or rod brake is required.
