About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100SN
The SC32X100SN is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 100 mm stroke and a 12 mm piston rod, it suits short linear moves in confined spaces.
This model features NBR (nitrile) seals for standard temperature operation from -20 to +70 °C. The body length A is 140 mm, making the total extended length approximately 240 mm. Ports are PT1/8 with an M10x1.25 rod thread.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100SN Is Used
Small Part Ejection
The 100 mm stroke and 402 N force at 0.5 MPa reliably eject lightweight plastic or metal parts from small molds and fixtures.
Miniature Diverter Gates
Actuates small gates on compact conveyor lines. The NBR seals and PT1/8 ports integrate easily with standard pneumatic circuits.
Lab Automation Actuation
Provides clean, repeatable linear motion for test tube handling or sample preparation stations where a 100 mm reach is needed.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100SN the Right Cylinder?
For higher force, step up to the SC40 bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa). For lighter, more compact needs, the SC32 is the smallest standard SC bore. Ensure the 12 mm rod is adequately supported if side loads are present.
When replacing, match five points: 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, NBR seal material, and the basic (no-mount) configuration. This cylinder does not include a magnet; for sensor mounting, select the -S variant.
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 SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100SN FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable. For mounting, use the standard AirTAC SC accessories like the LB foot mount (F-SC32LB) or FA front flange (F-SC32FA).
