The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X300N is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X300N is a double-acting AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 300 mm stroke, fitted with NBR (nitrile) seals. At 0.5 MPa it generates 402 N pushing force and 345 N pulling force, rising to 724 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure. The 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion are sized for light automation and handling tasks.
With a body length A of 140 mm, the total extended length is approximately 440 mm. The NBR seal material suits standard industrial environments within the -20 to +70 °C range. This cylinder uses PT1/8 ports and an M10x1.25 rod thread, and it accepts the full range of SC mounting accessories such as foot, flange, and clevis brackets.

Moves lightweight components between conveyor lanes or indexing stations where a 300 mm reach and 402 N push force are sufficient.
Operates compact gripper or vacuum cup assemblies on Cartesian robots, using the 12 mm rod for precise, low-deflection guidance.
Diverts cartons or pouches on a packaging line with a 300 mm stroke, leveraging the adjustable cushion to reduce end-of-travel noise.
For applications needing slightly more force, the 40 mm bore SC40 series provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. If space is tight and the 300 mm stroke creates a long unsupported rod, consider an external guide rail or a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending under side load. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 32 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, NBR seal material, and confirm the mounting accessory (e.g., LB foot or FA flange) and whether a magnet is needed for sensors.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder provides 402 N pushing force and 345 N pulling force. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the pushing force increases to 724 N.
No. The SC32X300N is a double-acting cylinder that requires continuous air pressure to maintain position. If pressure is lost or the directional valve is centered, the piston can drift. For load holding, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
