About the Airtac SAI32 Standard Cylinder SAI32AX500
The AirTAC SAI32X500 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for precise linear motion across a 500 mm stroke. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. This standardized mounting interface ensures seamless direct compatibility with other ISO 15552 actuators.
Built to withstand demanding environments, this specific configuration utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for superior corrosion and wear resistance compared to standard carbon steel. Fluid is supplied via PT tapered ports, and the extruded aluminum barrel features dual sensor grooves designed for CMSE or DMSE switches when a magnet is specified.

Where the Airtac SAI32 Standard Cylinder SAI32AX500 Is Used
Package Diverting
Handles lightweight product routing on packaging lines where the 402 N push force easily moves cartons across a 500 mm transfer distance.
Drawer Actuation
Extends automated storage drawers or tote retrieval mechanisms, utilizing the full 500 mm stroke to access deep shelving units.
Sensor Positioning
Moves inspection cameras or test probes along an axis, taking advantage of the stable ISO 15552 mounting interface and SUS420J2 rod.
Is the Airtac SAI32 Standard Cylinder SAI32AX500 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SAI32X500 is optimal when a compact 32 mm bore must achieve a 500 mm reach, which is the maximum standard stroke for this bore size. If your application requires greater thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push force to 628 N. Because this model features a 500 mm stroke, the extended unsupported rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; integrating an external guide rail or utilizing a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent premature rod-bearing wear.
As a double-acting actuator, this cylinder relies on continuous air pressure to maintain its position. If pneumatic supply is lost or exhausted, the piston will drift and cannot hold a load. For applications requiring true position holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock. To match this unit for an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, PT port, and required mounting accessory.
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 SAI32 Standard Cylinder SAI32AX500 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAI32X500 generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. If pressure is increased to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 563 N.
Yes, the SAI32X500 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can drop it in as a replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders with a 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, and matching mounting dimensions.
