About the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000SN
The SC40X1000SN is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, ideal for long linear movements in automation. With a 40 mm bore, 16 mm piston rod, and PT1/4 ports, this model features a 21 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate end-of-stroke impact smoothly.
This specific code includes a built-in magnet (-S) for mounting CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors directly on the tie-rod barrel, and NBR (-N) seals for standard temperature resilience. The 1000 mm stroke reaches the maximum standard length for the 40 mm bore, providing a full meter of travel without requiring a non-standard order.

Where the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000SN Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Transfer
Pushes or pulls components across a full meter of travel on packaging or assembly lines, with sensor feedback confirming end positions.
Automated Gluing & Dispensing
Provides the consistent, extended linear motion needed for applying adhesives or sealants over large panels, controlled by reed switches.
Vertical Panel Lift Assist
Assists in raising or lowering lightweight panels and doors in industrial enclosures, using the 628 N push force for smooth operation.
Is the Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1000SN the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC40 bore when your application needs around 628 N of force at 0.5 MPa. If you require more power, stepping up to the SC50 bore provides 982 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 1000 mm, always check for potential rod buckling under compressive loads; an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent bending of the 16 mm rod.
For a direct replacement, match five key points: 40 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility, and the basic mounting style. This tie-rod cylinder is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles.
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 SC40X1000SN FAQ
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the push force is 628 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1130 N.
Yes. The -S suffix in the model code indicates a built-in magnet along the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly onto the cylinder's tie-rod barrel to detect piston position.
