The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X200SCB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 200mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X200SCB is a double-acting single-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1130 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 40 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, it uses a 16 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/4 ports, making it a compact workhorse for medium-duty linear actuation.
This configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and a rear double clevis mount (CB, part F-SC40CB) for pivoting attachment. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm) decelerates the piston smoothly, while the TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

The 200 mm stroke and 628 N push force reliably operate diverter gates on packaging conveyors, with the CB clevis mount allowing the cylinder to pivot as the gate swings.
Delivers consistent clamping force for machining fixtures. The built-in magnet enables end-of-stroke confirmation via reed sensors to interlock with the machine cycle.
Controls chutes or levers on farm equipment. The rear clevis simplifies installation on pivoting linkages, and TPU seals handle dusty, ambient-temperature environments.
Choose the SC40 when your application needs roughly 628 N at 0.5 MPa; if you require more force, step up to the SC50 which provides 982 N at the same pressure. For lighter, faster moves, the SC32 offers 402 N. This 200 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for bore 40.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, rear double clevis (CB) mounting, and the -S magnet for sensor compatibility. The SC is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the cylinder provides 628 N pushing and 528 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1130 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 128 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Only replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder matching the same bore, stroke, port thread, mounting (CB), and magnet option.
