About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X30
The AirTAC SC32X30 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (563 N at 0.7 MPa). With a 30 mm stroke and a 12 mm diameter piston rod, it is sized for short, repetitive linear motions in tight machine envelopes.
This model features a 140 mm body length (A dimension), adjustable pneumatic cushioning for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration, and PT1/8 threaded ports. It operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa across a -20 to +70 °C temperature range with standard TPU seals.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X30 Is Used
Small Part Clamping
Applies 402 N of controlled force at 0.5 MPa for holding small components during light machining, marking, or adhesive curing operations.
Miniature Diverter Gates
Actuates compact diverter flaps on small conveyor lines, sorting lightweight packages with a short 30 mm throw and reliable double-acting control.
Lab Automation Actuation
Provides clean, oil-free linear motion for test-tube handling or sample positioning in benchtop lab automation equipment.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X30 the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing slightly more force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore SC40 series provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. The SC32X30 is a basic configuration without a magnet or mounting accessories; if position sensing is required, select the -S magnet option to use CMSG/DMSG sensors. For direct replacement, match bore (32 mm), stroke (30 mm), PT port thread, and confirm the mounting style—this model uses the basic tie-rod body without brackets.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X30 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC32X30 produces 563 N of push force. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. Pull force at 0.5 MPa is 345 N.
This specific model (SC32X30) does not include a built-in magnet. To use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, you need the -S magnet version (SC32X30S). Without the magnet, the cylinder body cannot trigger reed or solid-state switches.
