The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X100H is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder equipped with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals, extending its operating range to 0 to +150 °C for demanding hot environments. With a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model uses a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 rod thread and PT1/8 ports. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end, reducing impact noise. The compact tie-rod body has a length A of 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 240 mm, ideal for tight machinery spaces.

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Viton seals make this cylinder suitable for autoclave door mechanisms, drying ovens, and foundry tooling where ambient temperatures reach up to 150°C.
The 100 mm stroke and 12 mm rod provide crisp, repeatable ejection of lightweight plastic or metal components from injection molds and pick-and-place nests.
Operates reliably in heated conveyor sections to divert hot products or materials, maintaining consistent 402 N push force without seal degradation.
Choose the SC32 bore for light clamping, sorting, and small-part transfer where force demand stays below 400 N at typical plant pressure. If your application requires more push force, step up to the SC40 bore, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa—a 56% increase. For strokes longer than 300 mm on this 12 mm rod, verify side-load limits; an external linear guide or a guided cylinder variant is recommended to protect the rod bearing from bending moments.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This SC32X100H is a direct fit for another AirTAC SC32X100H or a same-spec tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) it produces 402 N extending and 345 N retracting. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 724 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It is a direct replacement only for another AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinder or an equivalent tie-rod design matching the 140 mm body length A and PT1/8 ports.
