About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X450STC
The AirTAC SC32X450STC is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable deceleration for mid-stroke applications.
This model features a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor mounting and a centre trunnion (TC) pivot, supplied with the TCM1 bracket. The 450 mm stroke is well within the 1000 mm maximum standard stroke for 32 mm bore cylinders.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X450STC Is Used
Material Handling Gates
The 450 mm stroke and centre trunnion mount allow this cylinder to pivot and actuate diverter gates on conveyor systems, sorting packages by size or destination.
Clamping & Fixturing
Delivering 402 N at standard line pressure, it provides consistent clamping force for woodworking or light metal fabrication jigs, with sensors confirming jaw position.
Agricultural Equipment
Suitable for actuating chutes or levers on farm machinery, the TPU seals handle dusty environments and the trunnion mount accommodates the required arcing motion.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X450STC the Right Cylinder?
For higher force requirements, step up to the 40 mm bore SC40 series, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. For lighter, more compact needs, consider a smaller bore. The 450 mm stroke on a 12 mm rod is suitable for axial loads; avoid side loading without an external guide to prevent rod bending.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, centre trunnion (TC) mounting with F-SC32TC bracket, and the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X450STC FAQ
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 at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
Yes, the 'S' in the model code signifies a built-in magnet. This allows you to directly clamp AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors onto the barrel to detect piston position without additional brackets.
