The AirTAC SE40 Standard Cylinder SE40BX600 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 600mm 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 SE40BX600 is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for a 600 mm stroke. It delivers a robust 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 16 mm rod and an M12x1.25 thread. The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting corrosion.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) tailored for corrosive or washdown environments. Because it lacks the -S magnet code, it arrives without a built-in position sensor. The field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, softening hard impacts during high-speed cycling.

Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B). Seals: TPU (blank) / FKM high-temp (H) / NBR (N). Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting: Basic, LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, CR, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2. Related SE-family variants: SED (double rod), SEJ (adjustable stroke), BSE (rod lock), BSED (double-rod rod lock).
Uses the 628 N extend force and 600 mm stroke to push PET bottle containers between parallel conveyor lanes during format changeovers.
Leverages the SUS304 stainless rod to safely eject sterilized trays from a washdown chamber without risking surface corrosion.
Extends 600 mm to fold large corrugated carton flaps, relying on the adjustable pneumatic cushion to prevent slamming at stroke end.
When sizing this 40 mm bore actuator, compare its 628 N push at 0.5 MPa against the 32 mm bore (402 N) if your load requires less force, or step up to the 50 mm bore (982 N) for heavier lifting. This model uses a PT1/4 port and includes the SUS304 stainless rod for washdown duty. If your application requires position feedback, you would need an -S magnet variant for CMSE or DMSE sensors.
At 600 mm of stroke, the 16 mm rod is subject to bending under lateral loads; an external guide rail is strongly recommended to prevent rod-bearing wear. Note that a plain SE cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve centers—it cannot hold a load without live pressure. For dead-end holding, consider a BSE rod lock variant. Its standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures direct compatibility with existing foot and flange hardware.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N. The maximum push capacity is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and it operates at speeds between 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE40BX600 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. You can use it as a direct replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, retaining your existing mounting accessories. Note this specific SKU uses a PT1/4 port and lacks a position-sensing magnet.
