The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X95S 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 SC40X95S is a double-acting AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with a 40 mm bore and 95 mm stroke, pre-equipped with a built-in magnet for barrel-mounted position sensors. At 0.5 MPa it produces 628 N pushing force and 528 N pulling force, rising to 1130 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.
This model uses a 16 mm diameter piston rod with M12x1.25 threads and PT1/4 ports. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at both ends. Its compact tie-rod body has an A-length of 142 mm, making the extended length approximately 237 mm. The suffix S indicates the magnet, allowing CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection.

The 95 mm stroke and 628 N push force reliably divert cartons or trays on a conveyor, with the built-in magnet confirming each cycle via a barrel-mounted sensor.
Delivers 1130 N at 0.9 MPa for light pressing, holding, or clamping fixtures in assembly cells, where the compact tie-rod body fits tight machine envelopes.
The -S magnet option allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG sensors for precise end-of-stroke feedback, ideal for automated sequences requiring position verification.
Choose the SC40 bore when 628 N at 0.5 MPa matches your load; for lighter actuation the SC32 delivers 402 N, while the SC50 steps up to 982 N. This 95 mm stroke is within the standard range for the 40 mm bore (max standard 1200 mm).
For replacement, match five points: 40 mm bore, 95 mm stroke, PT1/4 ports, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and basic mount (no bracket). The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders. If your application involves side loads or a long unsupported rod, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder provides 628 N pushing and 528 N pulling. At 0.7 MPa push force is 879 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it 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 body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so mounting dimensions and overall length differ. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with matching bore, stroke, PT ports, basic mount, and magnet option.
