The AirTAC SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X145 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 145mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X145 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). With a 12 mm piston rod and a 145 mm stroke, it fits neatly into light clamping, sorting, and small-part transfer duties where space is limited.
This model uses a 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly, reducing end-of-stroke shock. The body length A is 140 mm, giving an extended length of approximately 285 mm. PT1/8 ports and an M10x1.25 rod thread are standard.

The 402 N force at 0.5 MPa is ideal for light-duty clamping fixtures on drilling or milling stations, holding workpieces securely without distortion.
Use the 145 mm stroke to actuate small diverter gates on packaging conveyors, sorting cartons or pouches between lanes with a fast, repeatable motion.
Compact 32 mm bore and tie-rod construction suit benchtop liquid handling or test-tube pick-and-place mechanisms where clean, dry air is the power source.
Step up to the SC40 bore for 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa if your load exceeds the SC32's 402 N capacity. For strokes of 300 mm or more, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder to protect the 12 mm rod from bending under side load. When replacing an existing unit, match bore, stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting, and absence of a magnet to ensure direct compatibility.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa the SC32X145 produces 563 N of push force. The pull force at the same pressure is 345 N (at 0.5 MPa). Maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 724 N.
This basic model (SC32X145) does not include a built-in magnet. To use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, order the SC32X145-S variant, which adds a magnet band on the piston for sensor clamping on the barrel.
