The Airtac SC40X175 is a double-acting tie-rod standard cylinder from the AirTAC SC series with a 40 mm bore, 175 mm stroke and adjustable air cushions at both ends. It is the version without a piston magnet (no S in the code), basic mounting and standard TPU seals.
Reading the code: SC = standard cylinder (double acting), 40×175 = bore x stroke in mm; no S = without magnet; no mounting, seal or thread suffix means basic mounting, TPU seals and PT port thread.

Typical applications
- Bottling, filling and capping machines
- Lifting, pushing and transfer on conveyor lines
- Material-handling and palletising equipment
- Wood, stone and metal working machines
- Like-for-like replacement of an Airtac SC40X175
Compatibility and replacement
Per AirTAC, an SC cylinder is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, so it is not a dimensional drop-in for ISO 15552 cylinders from other makers. It does accept AirTAC SC/SAU-series mounting accessories (LB foot, FA/FB flange, CA/CB clevis, TC trunnion) and rod-end joints. If you need position sensing, order the magnet version SC40X175S and AirTAC CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Frequently asked questions
How much force does it give?
At 0.5 MPa the 40 mm bore gives about 628.3 N pushing and 527.8 N pulling with its 16 mm rod. At the 1.0 MPa maximum the push force doubles to about 1,256.6 N.
How fast can it run?
AirTAC gives a speed range of 30-800 mm/s for this bore, with adjustable air cushion cushioning. Use speed-control fittings to set the speed and keep impact at the stroke ends low.
How do I set the cushion?
Turn the cushion needle screws on the front and rear covers. The cushion acts over the last 21 mm of stroke; adjust until the piston decelerates smoothly at the end of stroke without striking the cover.
