The AirTAC SE63 Standard Cylinder SE63BX40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 40mm stroke, PT3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SE63BX40 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for demanding environments. It generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, driven by a PT3/8 port and a 20 mm SUS304 stainless steel rod. The square extruded aluminum barrel eliminates external tie rods, yielding a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against machine frames.
Because this SKU omits the -S magnet, it arrives without built-in position sensing out of the box. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a screw, softening hard mechanical stops during high-speed 30-800 mm/s cycling.

Handles the 1559 N push force required to reroute filled beverage containers on a stainless-steel washdown conveyor.
Uses the 40 mm stroke and SUS304 rod to rapidly fold corrugated cardboard flaps in humid packaging environments.
Cycles the safety guard on a machine tool, benefiting from the adjustable cushion to soften 30-800 mm/s end stops.
Selecting the SE63BX40 makes sense when your process requires moderate thrust and strict washdown capability. If you need less force, stepping down to the 50 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push to 982 N. Conversely, moving up to the 80 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push to 2513 N. The SUS304 rod is ideal for corrosive or food-grade environments.
As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, this unit is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders, allowing you to retrofit existing 63 mm bore hardware without altering the mounting footprint. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder relies on live air pressure to hold a load; if your valve centers or air supply drops, the piston will drift. For positive holding without air, consider the BSE rod-lock variant.
Quick checklist
The SE63BX40 delivers 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at speeds ranging from 30 to 800 mm/s.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance but does not include the -S magnet, meaning it is not ready for CMSE or DMSE position sensors out of the box. To add sensing, you would need a model configured with the magnet option.
