The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X600SH is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 600mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X600SH is a double-acting single-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1130 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 16 mm diameter rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration across the 600 mm stroke.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and high-temperature Viton seals (-H), extending the operating range to 0–150 °C. The PT1/4 port and M12x1.25 rod thread maintain standard connectivity.

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Viton seals allow reliable operation in ovens, autoclaves, and foundry equipment up to 150 °C.
Built-in magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG solid-state or reed sensors for end-of-stroke detection.
628 N push force at 0.5 MPa handles sorting gates and transfer mechanisms on packaging lines.
For higher force requirements, stepping up to the 50 mm bore provides 982 N at 0.5 MPa. With a 600 mm stroke, ensure the 16 mm rod is protected from side loads; an external guide or self-aligning coupler is recommended to prevent rod bearing wear and bending. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option precisely.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N extending and 528 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1130 N.
No, the SC series is a tie-rod design that is shorter than ISO 15552 cylinders. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles. Replace only with another AirTAC SC of the same bore, stroke, port, and magnet option.
