The AirTAC SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X100SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 100mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X100SH is a double-acting, single-rod tie-rod cylinder with a 40 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 16 mm diameter rod and PT1/4 port provide a robust connection for general automation tasks, while the built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for precise position feedback.
Specified with the 'H' suffix, this model uses Viton (FKM) seals, extending the operating temperature range to 0–150 °C. This makes it suitable for high-temperature environments like foundries, drying ovens, or packaging machinery near heat-sealing bars where standard TPU seals would degrade.

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Ideal for actuators near ovens, autoclaves, or heat-sealing equipment where ambient temperatures exceed 70°C, thanks to the 0–150°C Viton seals.
The built-in magnet pairs with reed or solid-state sensors for end-of-stroke detection in automated clamping, pressing, or ejecting fixtures.
Performs reliable diverting, stopping, or lifting of products on conveyors in washdown-free, high-temperature packaging areas.
Choose the SC40X100SH for applications needing reliable mid-range force and high-temperature resistance. If your force requirement is lower, consider stepping down to the 32 mm bore (402 N at 0.5 MPa); for more force, the 50 mm bore provides 982 N. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, evaluate side-load conditions—an unsupported 16 mm rod can bend under off-axis loads, so use an external guide or switch to a guided cylinder. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the Viton seal material to ensure identical performance.
Quick checklist
At the standard0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 628 N pushing and 528 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1130 N.
Yes, if the original was an AirTAC SC40 with the same stroke, PT port, built-in magnet, and Viton seals. The 'H' suffix is critical for0–150°C operation; a standard TPU seal cylinder will fail prematurely in high heat.
