The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X225S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 225mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X225S is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 225 mm stroke, delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa). The 12 mm piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for light automation tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The total extended body length is approximately 365 mm, making it a space-efficient choice for compact machine designs.

The 225 mm stroke and 402 N push force reliably actuate diverter gates on compact conveyor lines, routing lightweight packages or components between lanes.
With a built-in magnet for sensor feedback, this cylinder controls the vertical stroke on small pick-and-place heads, ensuring consistent part retrieval and placement.
Delivers clean, oil-free actuation for test-tube elevators or lid openers in laboratory workcells, where the 724 N max force handles light payloads with precision.
Choose the SC32 bore for light pushing, clamping, and sorting applications where the 402 N force at 0.5 MPa is sufficient. If your load requires more force, step up to the SC40 bore, which provides 628 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 225 mm on a 12 mm rod, ensure the load is guided and free of side forces; an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler is recommended to prevent rod bending.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points: 32 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensor compatibility, and the basic (no bracket) mounting style.
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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet in the piston. You can clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
