About the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX200
The AirTAC SE40BX200 is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for a 40 mm bore and 200 mm stroke. It generates 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a hard-chrome plated SUS304 stainless steel rod (material code B) designed specifically for corrosive environments and washdown duty. The extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against frames while resisting corrosion.
This actuator relies on field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends to decelerate the piston near the stroke limits, allowing you to tune out hard end-stop impacts at operating speeds up to 800 mm/s. Note that this specific SKU omits the built-in magnet, so it cannot directly host CMSE or DMSE electronic position sensors without modification.

Where the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX200 Is Used
Bottling Line Diverters
Actuates routing gates on stainless steel beverage filling lines, utilizing the SUS304 rod to withstand caustic washdowns while providing 628 N push at 0.5 MPa.
Food Grade Belt Tracking
Tensions and tracks hygiene-grade conveyor belts in meat processing plants, where the tie-rod-free extruded profile prevents bacterial traps and survives daily washdowns.
Pneumatic Press Ejection
Ejects formed aluminum lids from light-duty pneumatic presses, using the 200 mm stroke and adjustable end-cushions to soften stops at high cycling speeds.
Is the Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX200 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 40 mm bore makes sense when your load requires roughly 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If your application is lighter, stepping down to the 32 mm bore drops the output to 402 N, while moving up to the 50 mm bore increases the push to 982 N. Because this is a standard double-acting cylinder, it will not hold a load in place if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. For position-holding needs, consider the BSE rod-lock variant. As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, it serves as a dimensionally interchangeable direct replacement for competing profile cylinders, utilizing the same mounting footprint and PT1/4 port. At 200 mm stroke, the 16 mm rod handles moderate side loads, but longer unsupported strokes demand an external guide to prevent rod-bearing bending.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX200 FAQ
The SE40BX20 has a 40 mm bore and delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 16 mm SUS304 stainless steel rod, an M12x1.25 rod thread, and a PT1/4 port.
No, the adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and is not a locking mechanism. If air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. For fail-safe load holding, you need the BSE series rod lock cylinder or an external pilot-operated check valve.
