The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X220H is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 220mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X220H is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder equipped with high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals, extending its operating range to 0–150 °C for hot or aggressive environments. With a 32 mm bore and 220 mm stroke, it produces 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model uses a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 rod thread and PT1/8 ports. The adjustable air cushion at each end provides a 21 mm deceleration zone, and the total extended body length is approximately 360 mm (140 mm body length A + 220 mm stroke).

Related variants: SCD (double rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Viton seals make this cylinder ideal for actuating dampers, valves, or clamps inside ovens, autoclaves, and heated presses where ambient temperatures reach up to 150 °C.
The 220 mm stroke and 724 N max force suit ejector pins or part-pusher stations on small injection-molding or die-casting machines, especially near hot molds.
Operates material-diverting gates or stops on conveyors moving hot products, such as baked goods, ceramics, or warm metal parts, without seal degradation.
For applications requiring more force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore SC40 series provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. The SC32X220H is a standard-stroke model (max 1000 mm for bore 32). When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 32 mm bore, 220 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mount (no accessory bracket), and the -S magnet option if sensors are needed (this unit does not include a magnet).
At 220 mm stroke, side-load forces on the 12 mm rod are moderate, but always align the load axially with the rod. For non-axial loads, use an external linear guide to protect the rod bearing and seals from premature wear.
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 reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The SC32X220H is a double-acting cylinder and will drift or drop if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered. To hold a load safely without live pressure, you must add an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or a mechanical brake.
