The AirTAC Airtac B04-SCD Specialized Standard Cylinder for Construction Machinery B04-SCD80X75 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, 75mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B04-SCD80X75 is AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated variant of the SCD80X75 double-acting, double-rod cylinder. The B04- prefix designates it for heavy-equipment builders, but mechanically it is identical to the standard SCD80X75. A Ø25 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, yielding identical thrust in both directions: 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa.
With a 75 mm stroke and a 257 mm body length A(SCD), this compact unit provides excellent anti-rotation properties and symmetric bearing loads. The adjustable cushion strokes are 28 mm, and the standard PT3/8 ports supply ample flow for the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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 symmetric push/pull movements on heavy-equipment attachments where the B04 construction-machinery prefix ensures suitability for rugged site environments.
Clamps or releases parts from both ends simultaneously using the equal 2268 N force at 0.5 MPa, ensuring balanced gripping on large structural components.
Uses the rear rod protrusion as a mechanical stopper or sensor flag on a transfer line, taking advantage of the non-rotating through-rod design.
Select this 80 mm bore when an application demands 2268 N of equal force both ways, such as a dual-tooling shuttle on an excavator attachment. If your mechanism only requires one-sided pushing, the single-rod SC80X75 is lighter and more cost-effective. For heavy side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying solely on the through-rod.
To replace this unit, match the 80 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting, and no magnet. Note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near end-of-stroke; they do not lock or hold the load. A mechanical lock or external brake is required to maintain position without live air pressure.
Double-rod checklist
The B04- prefix indicates this is AirTAC's construction-machinery dedicated line. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD80X75 double-rod cylinder, offering the same 80 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. For the 80 mm bore, this means 2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa. It also offers better rod guidance, anti-rotation stability, and a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or sensors.
