The AirTAC SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X40STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 40mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X40STC is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder delivering a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). Its compact 32 mm bore and 40 mm stroke suit short linear actuation tasks, with a 12 mm diameter piston rod and a body length A of 140 mm.
This model is factory-equipped with a built-in magnet (-S suffix) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors, and a centre trunnion mount (TC suffix) supplied with the TCM1 bracket for pivoting applications. The standard PT port thread and TPU seals provide reliable operation from -20 to +70 °C.

The 40 mm stroke and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa efficiently actuate diverter gates for lightweight packages on conveyor lines.
With the built-in magnet, CMSG/DMSG sensors provide end-of-stroke confirmation for precise clamping of small electronic components during assembly.
The centre trunnion mount (F-SC32TC) allows the cylinder to pivot freely, ideal for driving short-throw levers and linkages in packaging machinery.
Choose the SC32 bore for light-duty pneumatic tasks needing up to 402 N at 0.5 MPa. If your force requirement exceeds 600 N, step up to the SC40 bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa). For a direct replacement, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, PT port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing without additional brackets.
