The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X50H 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 SC32X50H is a 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke double-acting pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SC tie-rod family. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 12 mm diameter piston rod with M10x1.25 threads. The ‘H’ suffix denotes high-temperature Viton (FKM) seals, extending the operating range to 0–150 °C for demanding thermal environments.
With a compact body length A of 140 mm, the cylinder’s total extended length is approximately 190 mm. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at end of stroke, reducing impact. PT1/8 ports are standard, and the cylinder is rated for an operating pressure of 0.15–1.0 MPa with a 1.5 MPa proof pressure.

Viton seals allow the SC32X50H to operate reliably in autoclave loading, drying ovens, or near heated platens where ambient temperatures reach up to 150 °C.
With 402 N of push force, this compact cylinder is ideal for ejecting lightweight plastic or metal parts from molds and fixtures on high-speed assembly lines.
Use the 50 mm stroke for precise, low-force clamping in blister packaging or heat-sealing machinery, where standard seals would degrade prematurely.
Select the SC32X50H for light clamping, sorting, and ejection tasks where space is tight and ambient temperatures exceed standard limits. If you need more force, step up to the SC40 series, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. For strokes over 300 mm, consider an external guide to protect the 12 mm rod from side-load bending.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: bore (32 mm), stroke (50 mm), PT port thread, Viton seal material, and the absence of a magnet or mounting accessory. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable with other AirTAC SC32 tie-rod cylinders of the same configuration.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC32X50H generates a push force of 563 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf (804 N), but the recommended operating limit is 0.9 MPa, producing 724 N.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. Mounting accessories are specific to the SC family, such as the F-SC32LB foot mount or F-SC32FA front flange. They are not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 mounts.
