The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X150CB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X150CB is a 40 mm bore, 150 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Its 16 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/4 port ensure reliable fluid power for medium-duty linear tasks.
This model features a rear double clevis (CB) mount, allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation, which is ideal for applications where the load moves through an arc. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke impact and noise.

Operates pivoting linkages on agricultural equipment like harvester chutes or planter arms, where the rear clevis mount allows the cylinder to swing freely.
Pivots a diverter gate on a conveyor line, directing packages or bulk material between two chutes with a simple, robust pneumatic stroke.
Pulls a pivoting clamp arm closed on a welding or assembly fixture, using the clevis mount to accommodate the arc of the clamping motion.
For higher force requirements, consider stepping up to the 50 mm bore SC series, which provides 982 N of push at 0.5 MPa. The CB mounting style uses a fork at the rear cap (mounting accessory F-SC40CB), so ensure your machine's pivot pin matches the clevis dimensions. When replacing an existing cylinder, match the bore, stroke, PT port thread, CB mount, and confirm if a magnet is needed—this model does not include a built-in magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), it generates 628 N pushing and 528 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1130 N.
The CB suffix denotes a rear double clevis mount, designed to pivot on a pin. If you need a fixed, non-pivoting installation, choose a basic (no mount code) or foot-mounted (LB) version instead.
