About the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000S
The AirTAC SC40X1000S is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 1130 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 1000 mm stroke and a 16 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for linear applications requiring a long reach within a compact body length of 142 mm.
This genuine AirTAC cylinder includes a built-in magnet, allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends, with a cushion length of 21 mm, effectively decelerates the piston to minimize impact noise and vibration at high cycle rates.

Where the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000S Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
Pushes or pulls components across a 1000 mm distance on packaging lines, using the built-in magnet for end-of-travel sensor confirmation.
Automated Assembly
Provides the extended linear motion needed for part insertion or pick-and-place mechanisms where sensor feedback is critical for cycle timing.
Logistics Sorting Gate
Operates a diverter gate or stop on a conveyor system, with the magnetic piston enabling simple position verification via barrel-mounted sensors.
Is the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing a longer stroke in the 40 mm bore, the SC40X1000S reaches the maximum standard stroke of 1200 mm for this series. If your load requires higher force, stepping up to the 50 mm bore provides 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. When using strokes of 300 mm or more, always assess side-load conditions; an external guide or a guided cylinder is recommended to protect the 16 mm rod from bending under misalignment or radial forces. To ensure a correct replacement, match the bore, 1000 mm stroke, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 40mm bore cylinder produces 628 N extending force and 528 N retracting force. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 1130 N.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, making it compatible with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors that clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel.
