The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X125 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 125mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X125 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 max operating pressure). Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion make it well-suited for light-duty clamping, sorting, and ejecting tasks where a 125 mm stroke is required.
With a body length A of just 140 mm, this genuine AirTAC actuator fits into tight machine envelopes. The PT1/8 ports and M10x1.25 rod thread are standard across the SC32 family, simplifying spare-part management.

The 125 mm stroke and 402 N push force reliably eject small plastic or metal parts from injection-molding or stamping dies.
Actuates lightweight diverter flaps on conveyor lines, sorting packages or products with a clean 125 mm linear motion.
Provides consistent clamping force for woodworking or light assembly jigs, with adjustable cushioning to reduce impact noise.
Choose the SC32X125 when your application needs a compact pneumatic cylinder with a force around 400 N at standard shop air. If you need more push force, stepping up to the SC40 bore provides 628 N at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For strokes of 300 mm or longer on this 12 mm rod, be cautious of side loads—consider an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending.
To ensure a drop-in replacement, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and confirm the magnet option (this model has no built-in magnet). This SC cylinder is a tie-rod design, not an ISO 15552 profile, so verify body length A (140 mm) against your existing unit.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC32X125 produces a theoretical push force of 563 N. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 724 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is physically shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder. It is only dimensionally interchangeable with another AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinder matching the 125 mm stroke, PT ports, and basic mounting.
