About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X50S
The AirTAC SC32X50S is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke, delivering a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa. Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports suit light pneumatic handling and clamping tasks where space is limited.
This model includes a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to mount directly on the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly within a 21 mm cushion zone, and the standard TPU seals operate from -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X50S Is Used
Part Presence Sensing
The built-in magnet enables direct mounting of reed or solid-state sensors for precise end-of-stroke confirmation in automated assembly fixtures.
Small Part Diverter
With a 50 mm stroke and 402 N push force, this cylinder reliably actuates gates or diverters on compact conveyor lines for lightweight products.
Light Clamping & Stamping
Ideal for low-force pneumatic clamping or marking operations where sensor feedback is required to verify the tool has retracted before the next cycle.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X50S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC32X50S for compact, sensor-ready actuation up to 402 N at 0.5 MPa. If your load requires more force, step up to the SC40 series, which provides 628 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 300 mm or more, even on a 32 mm bore, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder to protect the 12 mm rod from side-load bending.
When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points: 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S suffix), and your current mounting accessory. This genuine AirTAC SC unit is a direct replacement for another SC32 tie-rod cylinder with the same specifications.
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 SC32X50S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar) the cylinder pushes with 402 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force rises to 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 804 N (82 kgf).
Yes. The -S suffix in SC32X50S indicates a built-in magnet. You can clamp AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the barrel without any additional brackets.
