The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X50FA is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X50FA is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke, supplied with a front rectangular flange (FA) for direct panel mounting. At 0.5 MPa it generates 402 N push force, making it suitable for light clamping, sorting, and ejector tasks.
This model uses a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 knuckle thread and PT1/8 ports. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end. The FA flange (part F-SC32FA) bolts to the rod-end face, simplifying installation on machine frames.

The 50 mm stroke and 402 N push force reliably eject lightweight plastic or metal parts from injection molds and pick-and-place nests.
Front-flange mounting allows the cylinder to be fixed directly to a conveyor side frame, actuating a small diverter gate for product sorting lines.
Delivers controlled clamping force for holding small workpieces during drilling, gluing, or ultrasonic welding, with adjustable cushioning to reduce impact.
Choose the SC32X50FA when you need a compact 32 mm bore cylinder with a front flange for end-face mounting. If your load exceeds 402 N at 0.5 MPa, step up to the SC40 series (628 N push at 0.5 MPa). For a direct drop-in replacement, match bore (32 mm), stroke (50 mm), PT1/8 port thread, front FA flange mount, and confirm the magnet option is not required. The short 50 mm stroke keeps the rod well-supported inside the barrel, so side-load risk is minimal in this configuration.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N. At 0.7 MPa it reaches 563 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it delivers 724 N.
Yes, provided the original is an AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, and front FA flange. The SC series is shorter than ISO 15552 cylinders, so it is not a direct dimensional interchange for those profiles.
