The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X316 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 316mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X316 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 32 mm bore and 316 mm stroke, this model uses a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 thread and features an adjustable pneumatic cushion of 21 mm at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly.
This cylinder's body length A is 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 456 mm. It operates on filtered air within a pressure range of 0.15–1.0 MPa and a standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C using its default TPU seals. The SC32X316 is a genuine AirTAC component designed for reliable linear actuation in compact machinery.

Pushes lightweight components off a conveyor line with 402 N of force at 0.5 MPa, ideal for repetitive diverting tasks in packaging.
Applies consistent clamping pressure in woodworking or light assembly jigs, using its 316 mm stroke to accommodate varying workpiece sizes.
Operates test fixtures and sampling mechanisms, providing clean, precise linear motion with a compact 32 mm bore profile.
Select the SC32X316 when your application requires a force around 402 N at standard plant pressure. If you need more power, stepping up to the SC40 bore provides 628 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For strokes of this length, ensure the rod is not subjected to significant side loads; an external linear guide should be used to prevent bending of the 12 mm rod. For a direct replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 316 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting, and ensure the magnet option (-S) is matched if your original cylinder had a sensor.
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 force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter in overall length than a standard ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. It should only replace another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with identical bore, stroke, port thread, and mounting configuration.
