The AirTAC Airtac ACQ Compact Cylinders ACQ32X35SG is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder built to JIS dimensions, with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and a C-clip / riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Magnetic-switch slots around the body accept position sensors.
The AirTAC ACQ32X35SG is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder with G1/8 BSPP ports, 35 mm stroke and a built-in magnet for position sensing. Its parallel G threads seal on a bonded face washer rather than pipe dope, which makes it a natural fit for European and Asian OEM manifolds; the thread is a made-to-order option against the standard PT version. At 0.5 MPa the 32 mm bore delivers 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull through a 16 mm piston rod finished with a female M8x1.25 rod-end thread. The C-clip/riveted body keeps axial length to a minimum, so this cylinder slips into mounting pockets a round-body unit cannot fill. A fixed NBR bumper at each end absorbs the end stop (it is not a field-adjustable cushion, so add an external shock absorber above roughly 300 mm/s or heavy tooling mass), the hard-anodized bore runs on 40 um filtered air between 0.15-1.0 MPa, and the grooved body accepts an AirTAC reed or electronic switch anywhere along the stroke.

Lifting 8-12 kg die-cast sensor housings on a 4-station indexer: the 402.1 N push of the 32 mm bore covers the vertical lift at 0.5 MPa while the 35 mm stroke keeps the Z-axis head short enough for tight machine envelopes.
On a horizontal carton closer, the ACQ32X35SG tucks bottom flaps before gluing; the magnet plus a reed or electronic switch flags full retraction so the glue head never fires on a half-stroked cylinder.
Kicking misoriented PET bottles off a filling-line conveyor at 30-500 mm/s: the compact C-clip body mounts between conveyor rails where a round cylinder would overhang, and the NBR bumpers soften each direction change.
Because your ports must be G (BSPP) parallel thread, match this SKU to existing bonded-washer fittings or a DIN-style manifold; if your plant plumbed with tapered NPT hardware, order the trailing-T variant instead so threads mate correctly. On force, check both neighbours: drop to a 25 mm bore for 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step up to 40 mm for 628.3 N if your 402.1 N budget is too tight once side load and friction are counted. Speed window is 30-500 mm/s. Remember that a plain ACQ will not park its load when the valve centres or pressure drops - the piston drifts, and the bumper only decelerates near stroke end; specify an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if holding is required. This code covers bore 32, stroke 35, magnet (S), female-thread rod end, and G ports; add FA/FB/CB/LB brackets or a male-thread B rod end at order time if needed.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa this 32 mm bore pushes with 402.1 N and pulls with 301.6 N (double-acting, so extend exceeds retract). At 0.7 MPa push rises to 562.9 N. The maximum push rating is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Rated speed span is 30-500 mm/s and pressure span is 0.15-1.0 MPa with 1.5 MPa proof pressure.
The trailing G in the ordering code selects parallel G (BSPP) threads in place of the standard PT taper. G threads seal on a bonded face washer or O-ring, not on thread sealant, so use BSPP fittings with sealing washers and a flat port face - typical of EU and Asian OEM manifolds. This thread option is made to order versus the PT default, and it is the correct pick when matching existing BSPP hardware; choose the NPT (T) variant for tapered North-American plumbing.
