The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X100STC 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 SC32X100STC is a double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, ideal for light-duty clamping and sorting tasks. Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration at end-of-stroke.
This model includes a built-in magnet for barrel-mounted CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors and ships with the TC centre trunnion pivot (F-SC32TC) plus TCM1 bracket, allowing the cylinder to swing through an arc. The PT1/8 port and M10x1.25 rod thread suit compact pneumatic circuits.

The 100 mm stroke and 402 N force at 0.5 MPa reliably actuates gates or diverters on compact conveyor lines, with magnetic sensors confirming position.
Provides consistent 345 N pull force for belt or chain tensioners in packaging machinery, where the centre trunnion mount allows self-alignment.
Used in laboratory test rigs to apply a repeatable 724 N push at 0.9 MPa, with the adjustable cushion protecting delicate samples from impact shock.
For applications needing more force, step up to the SC40 bore which provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm stroke is well within the 1000 mm maximum standard stroke for this 32 mm bore. When replacing an existing cylinder, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, the -S magnet option, and the TC trunnion mount to ensure dimensional compatibility.
At this stroke length, the rod is fully supported by the front bearing; side loads should still be avoided to prevent premature seal wear. For guided motion, consider pairing with an external linear guide.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 402 N and pull force is 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
Direct replacement requires matching the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT ports, magnet option, and TC centre trunnion mount. If your old cylinder uses a different mounting style, you can swap the trunnion for an LB, FA, FB, CA, or CB bracket from the F-SC32 accessory range.
