The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X106 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 106mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X106 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion make it suitable for light automation tasks requiring a specific 106 mm stroke length.
This 32 mm bore model uses a PT1/8 port and an M10x1.25 rod thread. With a body length A of 140 mm, the total extended length is approximately 246 mm. As the 106 mm stroke is not a standard catalog offering, this is a non-standard, made-to-order configuration.

The 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa is well-suited for ejecting small plastic or metal parts from a fixture or pick-and-place nest, where the 106 mm stroke provides a clean clearance.
Operates a small diverter flap on a compact conveyor line. The adjustable cushion decelerates the 12 mm rod smoothly at the stroke end, minimizing vibration on lightweight products.
Provides a consistent, oil-free linear motion for pressing vials or actuating a small lever in a benchtop analytical instrument, where the non-standard 106 mm stroke fits a custom fixture.
Select the SC32 bore for light push/pull applications up to 724 N at 0.9 MPa. If your force requirement exceeds this, step up to the SC40 bore, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. For strokes over 300 mm on this 12 mm rod, evaluate side-load forces carefully; an external linear guide is recommended to prevent rod bending.
To ensure a direct replacement, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 106 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting (no accessories), and the absence of a built-in magnet. This cylinder is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to other AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinders.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 402 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the force increases to 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder and is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore and stroke. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders. It will only directly replace another AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinder with matching port, mounting, and magnet options.
