The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X60SCB 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 SC40X60SCB is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a capable actuator for medium-duty clamping and pressing tasks. Its 16 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration, while the 60 mm stroke suits compact linear transfer and ejection operations.
This model is factory-configured with a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, enabling reliable end-of-stroke detection without external brackets. The rear double clevis mount (CB, accessory F-SC40CB) allows the cylinder body to pivot, accommodating angular misalignment in articulating linkages.

The 60 mm stroke and 628 N push force reliably eject small to medium parts from conveyors or indexing tables, with sensor feedback confirming each cycle.
Provides consistent clamping force for CNC or welding fixtures. The rear clevis mount allows the cylinder to swing clear for easy part loading and unloading.
The CB double clevis mount is purpose-built for pivoting linkages on gates, diverters, or process machinery, handling angular movement without binding.
Choose the SC40X60SCB when 628 N at 0.5 MPa meets your force requirement. If you need more thrust, stepping up to the 50 mm bore provides 982 N at the same pressure. For lighter, more compact applications, the 32 mm bore delivers 402 N.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: 40 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT port thread, rear double clevis (CB) mounting, and the built-in magnet (-S). The CB clevis is ideal for pivoting applications, but ensure the rod end is also free to pivot or use a rod-end eye to prevent side loading on the rod bearing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the cylinder produces 628 N extending (push) and 528 N retracting (pull). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1130 N.
It is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SC40X60SCB or a tie-rod cylinder matching 40 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT ports, rear double clevis mount, and a magnetic piston. Always verify the mounting pin diameter and port size before ordering.
