The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X340 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 340mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X340 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa). Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion make it well-suited for light automation tasks requiring a 340 mm linear stroke.
With a body length A of 140 mm, the total extended length reaches 480 mm. This genuine AirTAC SC series unit uses PT1/8 ports and M10x1.25 rod threads, operating reliably on filtered air from -20 to +70 °C with standard TPU seals.

The 340 mm stroke and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa efficiently actuates gates or diverters on compact packaging conveyors, sorting lightweight items.
Ideal for ejecting small plastic or metal parts from a fixture. The adjustable cushion decelerates the 12 mm rod smoothly, protecting the tooling at the end of the 340 mm travel.
Provides a clean, repeatable 340 mm linear motion for dipping sensors or sampling probes into a test medium, operating quietly on filtered compressed air.
Choose the SC32X340 for light-duty push/pull tasks up to its 724 N limit at 0.9 MPa. If your application demands more force, stepping up to the SC40 bore provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. For strokes of 300 mm or more, ensure the load is guided externally to prevent bending stress on the 12 mm rod, as side loads can damage the rod bearing and seals.
To guarantee a correct replacement, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 340 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model is a direct fit for another AirTAC SC32X340 tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 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 increases to 724 N.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is dimensionally interchangeable only with another AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinder matching the 340 mm stroke, PT ports, and basic mounting.
