The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X200TC 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 SC40X200TC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 40 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, factory-configured with a centre trunnion (TC) mount for pivoting applications. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 628 N extending force, rising to 1130 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a capable mid-range actuator.
This model features a 16 mm diameter piston rod with M12x1.25 male threads and PT1/4 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end (21 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston smoothly. The TC mount includes the TCM1 trunnion bracket (order together as F-SC40TC), allowing the cylinder to swing through an arc as the load moves.

The centre trunnion mount lets the cylinder pivot as it actuates a diverter gate on a conveyor, handling 628 N of push force at standard plant pressure.
Delivers consistent clamping force up to 1130 N at 0.9 MPa for machining or welding fixtures, with the trunnion absorbing angular misalignment.
Operates a swinging chute or hopper door in agricultural equipment. The TPU seals handle dusty environments and temperatures from -20 to +70 °C.
Choose the SC40 when 628 N at 0.5 MPa fits the load. For a step up in force, the SC50 bore provides 982 N at the same pressure; for a lighter, more compact solution, the SC32 delivers 402 N. This 200 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 40 mm bore.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mount, and confirm whether a magnet (-S) is needed. 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 pushes with 628 N and pulls with 528 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the extending force reaches 1130 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 128 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length (142 mm body for the 40 bore) than an equivalent ISO 15552 cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. Replace only with another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder matching bore, stroke, port, and mounting.
