The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X15 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 15mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X15 is a compact double-acting pneumatic cylinder delivering 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force when operated at 0.5 MPa. With a 15 mm stroke and a 12 mm diameter piston rod, it is well-suited for short-travel clamping, ejecting, or positioning tasks where space is limited.
This tie-rod cylinder features an adjustable pneumatic cushion (21 mm length) to decelerate the piston quietly at end-of-stroke. The body length A is 140 mm, making the total extended length approximately 155 mm. Standard PT1/8 ports and an M10x1.25 rod thread simplify pneumatic connections and tooling attachment.

The 15 mm stroke and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa make this cylinder ideal for part clamping fixtures on small CNC or assembly stations.
With a total extended length of just 155 mm, the SC32X15 fits neatly into tight conveyor lines to eject or divert small components.
Delivers a controlled 724 N of thrust at 0.9 MPa, suitable for pressing bushings, pins, or connectors in benchtop automation cells.
For applications needing slightly more force, the 40 mm bore SC40 series provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 15 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and confirm whether a magnet is required for sensors. A genuine AirTAC SC32X15 is a direct fit for another SC32X15 of the same configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SC32X15 produces 402 N extending (push) and 345 N retracting (pull). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 724 N.
This basic SC32X15 model does not include a built-in magnet. To use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors for position feedback, order the SC32X15-S variant, which has a magnet integrated into the piston.
