The AirTAC SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX450S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SE40BX450S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 dimension standard. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and utilizes a 40 mm bore with a 450 mm stroke. The extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a flush, corrosion-resistant body that simplifies direct mounting to machine frames.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for corrosive and washdown environments, paired with a built-in magnet (option S) for position sensing. The integrated magnet triggers AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches housed in the sensor grooves on three sides of the body, while field-adjustable air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy near stroke extremes.

Routes plastic containers on a washdown conveyor using the 628 N push force and SUS304 rod to withstand caustic cleaning chemicals.
Tensions and seals strapping around corrugated pallets, relying on the 450 mm stroke to clear tall loads before cycling.
Actuates a metering valve for chemical reagents, using the DMSE electronic sensor to confirm full extension without contamination.
This 40 mm bore generates 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; if your load requires less force, step down to the 32 mm bore (402 N push), or step up to the 50 mm bore (982 N push) for heavier demands. The PT1/4 port and 450 mm stroke match standard ISO 15552 footprints, allowing a direct retrofit for existing hardware. Because the stroke is 450 mm, the unsupported rod length increases bending stress on the front bearing—use an external guide to prevent side-load wear.
Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not hold the load if air pressure drops. For position-holding safety during exhaust or valve centering, pair this cylinder with a BSE rod lock or an external pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N push and 528 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it provides 879 N push. The maximum push is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the operational speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE40BX450S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 standards, meaning it shares the exact same mounting footprint and PT1/4 port locations for direct replacement, provided your mounting accessory and stroke length match.
