The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X95 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 95mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X95 is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1130 N at 0.9 MPa), making it a capable mid-range actuator for pressing, clamping, and transfer tasks. With a 40 mm bore, 16 mm piston rod, and a compact 142 mm body length, it fits well in space-constrained machine frames.
This 95 mm stroke model uses PT1/4 ports and adjustable air cushioning to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke shock. The TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C, and the tie-rod construction allows straightforward maintenance access.

The 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa is ideal for pressing bearings, bushings, or dowel pins into housings on automated assembly lines.
With a 95 mm stroke, this cylinder can actuate a gate or diverter arm on a conveyor, sorting packages by size or destination.
Use the SC40X95 to power a toggle clamp or direct-acting hold-down in a machining or welding fixture, where consistent clamping force is critical.
Choose the SC40 bore when your application needs around 628 N at 0.5 MPa; if you require more force, stepping up to the SC50 delivers 982 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, evaluate side-load conditions carefully—an unsupported 16 mm rod can deflect under lateral forces, so consider an external linear guide or a guided cylinder for those cases.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 40 mm bore, 95 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic (no mounting accessory), and no magnet. This ensures a direct dimensional and performance swap for another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder.
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 with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is dimensionally interchangeable only with another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder of the same bore, stroke, and port thread.
