The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X125TC 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 SC32X125TC is a compact double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 32 mm bore and 125 mm stroke suit light-duty clamping, sorting, and assembly tasks where space is tight.
This model features a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (F-SC32TC), allowing the cylinder to pivot during operation. The 12 mm diameter piston rod includes a 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the load smoothly. As a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, it offers a shorter overall length than an ISO 15552 profile.

Pivots a small diverter gate on a conveyor line. The centre trunnion mount allows the cylinder to swing as it extends and retracts the gate.
Operates a toggle clamp in a woodworking or light-gauge metal fixture. The 402 N force at standard shop air is sufficient for holding parts during drilling or routing.
Moves a test fixture or sample tray in a lab automation setup. The clean, filtered-air operation and compact tie-rod design fit well on an optical bench or inside an enclosure.
Choose the SC32 bore for light push/pull applications up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. If your load requires more force, step up to the SC40 bore, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. Ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loading, as the 12 mm rod can bend under leverage.
For a direct replacement, match these five points exactly: 32 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and the absence of a magnet. The TC mount is ideal for applications where the cylinder body must swing through an arc.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 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 increases to 724 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter in overall length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. You must replace it with another AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinder or a unit with identical mounting dimensions.
