The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X397 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 397mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X397 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, ideal for medium-stroke positioning where space is at a premium. Its 12 mm piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide smooth deceleration for consistent cycle rates.
With a body length A of 140 mm, the total extended length reaches approximately 537 mm. This genuine AirTAC SC cylinder operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa and uses standard PT1/8 ports, making it a reliable workhorse for general automation tasks.

The 397 mm stroke is well-suited for pusher arms on compact conveyors, diverting lightweight products with its 402 N push force at standard line pressure.
Provides a controlled 397 mm linear feed for strip stock or small components in assembly machines, using adjustable cushioning to soften the end-of-stroke impact.
Operates sample tray shuttles or reagent handlers in lab automation, where the 32 mm bore offers a clean, compact footprint and reliable double-acting motion.
Step up to the SC40 bore if your application requires more than 402 N at 0.5 MPa, as the 40 mm bore provides 628 N. For strokes approaching this length, ensure the load is guided; the 12 mm rod is not designed to absorb significant side forces. A replacement must match the 32 mm bore, 397 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting, and the absence of a magnet.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. The maximum theoretical push force at 0.9 MPa is 724 N.
Yes, this basic model does not include a mount, but you can order a rear single clevis (CA) or double clevis (CB) separately using the accessory code F-SC32CA or F-SC32CB. The cylinder body is designed to accept standard AirTAC SC series mounting hardware.
