The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1050S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 1050mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X1050S is a double-acting, single-rod tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a non-standard 1050 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, driven by a 12 mm diameter piston rod.
This model features a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The cylinder body length A is 140 mm, resulting in a total extended length of approximately 1190 mm. With its PT1/8 port and M10x1.25 rod thread, it is a genuine AirTAC component designed for compact pneumatic systems.

The 1050 mm stroke moves lightweight parts between distant conveyors or workstations. The built-in magnet provides sensor feedback to confirm full extension and retraction in automated lines.
Ideal for actuating long diverter gates on packaging lines. The compact 32 mm bore fits in tight spaces, while the long stroke directs products down multiple chutes with sensor-verified positioning.
Used in diagnostic equipment to move a sampling probe over a long distance. The clean, double-acting air operation and magnetic piston sensing ensure precise, repeatable motion for liquid handling.
Select the SC32 bore when your application requires up to 402 N of force at 0.5 MPa. If you need more power, stepping up to the SC40 bore provides 628 N at the same pressure. For this 1050 mm stroke, which exceeds the standard 1000 mm maximum for the 32 mm bore, it is critical to manage side loads carefully. The long, 12 mm diameter rod is susceptible to bending under lateral force; always use an external guide or linear bearing to protect the rod and seals, and ensure the load is perfectly aligned with the piston axis.
To replace an existing cylinder, match all five key points: 32 mm bore, 1050 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic mounting style. This is a non-ISO tie-rod cylinder, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC series unit of the same configuration.
Quick checklist
The theoretical push force at 0.5 MPa is 402 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it is 724 N. The pull force on the retract stroke is 345 N at 0.5 MPa, due to the area of the 12 mm piston rod.
A stroke this long on a 12 mm rod creates a high risk of bending under side loads. You must guide the load externally with a linear rail or rod guide, and ensure the cylinder is mounted so the force is applied purely axially. Never use this cylinder to push an unguided load over its full stroke.
