About the Airtac B52-SC Copper-Free Standard Cylinder B52-SC32X100FA
The B52-SC32X100FA is the copper-free (copper-prohibited) build of the AirTAC SC32X100FA tie-rod cylinder. It is intended for lines where copper and copper alloys are not permitted, such as ammonia systems and some battery, electronics, and chemical plants. The exact material substitutions are not listed here, so please confirm them with us before ordering.
This double-acting cylinder delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, rising to 724 N push at 0.9 MPa. It has a 12 mm rod, PT1/8 ports, M10x1.25 rod thread, and a 21 mm adjustable cushion at each end. The body length A is 140 mm, so the total extended length is approximately 240 mm.

Where the Airtac B52-SC Copper-Free Standard Cylinder B52-SC32X100FA Is Used
Precision Clamping
Use the B52-SC32X100FA to clamp small workpieces in a fixture. The 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa holds parts securely during light machining or assembly, and the front flange mount allows rigid panel mounting.
Small Part Transfer
In a pick-and-place or transfer station, this cylinder can push or pull small components over a 100 mm stroke. The adjustable cushion decelerates the piston near stroke end, reducing impact on delicate parts.
Gate or Stop Pin
Deploy a stop pin or gate in a production line. The 12 mm rod and 21 mm cushion provide controlled motion, and the copper-free build suits environments where copper alloys are prohibited.
Is the Airtac B52-SC Copper-Free Standard Cylinder B52-SC32X100FA the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing more force, step up to the SC40X100, which provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the SC32 is the smallest bore in the SC line, so consider a different series for lower thrust. This cylinder has a 100 mm stroke, well within the 1000 mm maximum standard stroke for the 32 mm bore.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: bore (32 mm), stroke (100 mm), port thread (PT), mounting accessory (FA front flange, part code F-SC32FA), and magnet option (none, since no -S suffix is present). For strokes of 300 mm or more, use an external guide to prevent rod bending under side loads; at 100 mm, this is less of a concern but still avoid side loading.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B52-SC Copper-Free Standard Cylinder B52-SC32X100FA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 563 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push reaches 724 N. The maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
B52- marks AirTAC's copper-free (copper-prohibited) build, meaning it uses substituted materials to avoid copper and copper alloys. It shares the same bore, stroke, mounting, and performance as the standard SC32X100FA, but the exact material substitutions should be confirmed with us. For replacement, match bore, stroke, port thread, mounting, and magnet options.
