The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X410 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 410mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC40X410 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (879 N at 0.7 MPa), making it a capable mid-range actuator for general automation. Its 410 mm stroke sits well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for the 40 mm bore, so this is a standard-stroke model with no extended lead time.
This tie-rod cylinder uses a 16 mm diameter piston rod with an M12x1.25 rod thread and PT1/4 ports. The body length A is 142 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 552 mm. An adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston to reduce end-of-stroke impact, and the standard TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

Moves components between conveyor lanes or indexing stations with a 410 mm reach. The 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa handles typical pallet and workpiece masses.
Applies controlled clamping force in assembly jigs. The adjustable cushion protects the fixture and part from hammering at the end of the 410 mm stroke.
Diverts totes or cartons on gravity roller conveyors. The tie-rod design is easy to service and the 16 mm rod resists buckling under axial push loads.
Select the SC40X410 when your application needs roughly 600-900 N of push force. If the load is lighter, stepping down to a 32 mm bore (402 N at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For heavier loads, the 50 mm bore provides 982 N at the same pressure.
At 410 mm of stroke, the unsupported rod length is significant. If the load applies any side force, use an external guide rail or a rod-alignment coupler to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 40 mm bore, 410 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no built-in magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 628 N and the pull force is 528 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 1130 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 128 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is shorter in overall length than a comparable ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It will only drop-in replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with the same bore, stroke, port thread, and mounting configuration.
