The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X60CB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 60mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X60CB is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1130 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 40 mm bore and 60 mm stroke suit compact linear tasks where a rear pivot mount is needed. The 16 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth end-of-stroke deceleration.
This model comes configured with a CB rear double clevis mount (fork-style), allowing the cylinder body to pivot during operation. The mounting accessory code is F-SC40CB. Ports are PT1/4 with an M12x1.25 rod thread, and the standard TPU seals support an operating range of -20 to +70 °C.

The rear clevis mount allows the cylinder to swing, making it suitable for actuating linkages on compact agricultural or construction equipment attachments.
Pivoting diverter gates on small conveyors benefit from the SC40X60CB's compact 60 mm stroke and rear fork mount, providing reliable 628 N push force.
Used in welding or assembly fixtures where the cylinder body needs to pivot as it clamps, the double clevis mount offers a secure, self-aligning connection.
For higher force, step up to the SC50 bore (982 N at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact actuator, the SC32 offers 402 N. The 60 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, CB rear clevis mounting, and confirm the magnet option (this model has no built-in magnet).
The CB double clevis is ideal for applications where the cylinder must pivot at the rear cap. Ensure the clevis pin and bracket are sized for the 628 N push force to avoid premature wear on the pivot joint.
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, the push force reaches 1130 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 128 kgf.
Yes, the 'CB' suffix in the model code SC40X60CB indicates the cylinder is supplied with the rear double clevis mounting accessory (part code F-SC40CB). It is ready to be pinned into a pivoting application.
