The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X150TC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X150TC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 150 mm stroke, supplied with a centre trunnion (TC) mount for pivoting applications. Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports make it a compact choice for light automation tasks, delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model includes the TCM1 trunnion bracket (assembly code F-SC32TC), allowing the cylinder to swing through an arc during operation. The adjustable air cushion at each end, with a 21 mm cushion length, decelerates the piston smoothly to reduce end-of-stroke impact. With a body length of 140 mm, the total extended length is approximately 290 mm.

The 150 mm stroke and centre trunnion mount allow this cylinder to pivot a diverter gate on a compact conveyor line, handling light products with its 402 N push force at standard plant pressure.
Ideal for light-duty clamping in assembly jigs, the SC32X150TC provides a controlled 724 N clamping force at 0.9 MPa, with adjustable cushioning to prevent part damage on contact.
The TC trunnion mount enables the cylinder body to pivot, making it suitable for driving linkages in packaging or textile machinery where the actuator must follow an arcing motion.
For applications requiring more force, stepping up to the SC40 bore provides 628 N of push at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. The 150 mm stroke is well within the 1000 mm maximum standard stroke for the 32 mm bore, ensuring standard availability. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and the absence of a magnet (-S) option.
For strokes of 300 mm or more, consider external guides or a guided cylinder to protect the rod from bending under side loads, though at 150 mm this SC32X150TC is generally suitable for direct linear actuation with minimal risk of rod deflection.
Quick checklist
At 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. The theoretical maximum force 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, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. Replace it only with another AirTAC SC32 cylinder matching the 150 mm stroke, PT port, and TC trunnion mount.
