About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X530
The AirTAC SC32X530 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a non-standard 530 mm stroke, exceeding the 1000 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. It delivers a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at 0.9 MPa operating pressure, driven by a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 knuckle thread.
This model features a 21 mm adjustable pneumatic cushion at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The body length A is 140 mm, making the total extended length approximately 670 mm. Ports are PT1/8, and the cylinder operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s. TPU seals provide a standard temperature range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X530 Is Used
Small-Part Sorting Gates
The 530 mm stroke provides extended reach for diverting small components on conveyor lines, with 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to actuate lightweight gates reliably.
Automated Fixture Clamping
Ideal for long-travel clamping in woodworking or light assembly jigs, using its 12 mm rod and adjustable cushion to gently secure parts without impact damage.
Ventilation Damper Actuation
Operates remote louvers or small ventilation dampers in agricultural buildings, leveraging the non-standard 530 mm stroke for full-open to full-close movement.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X530 the Right Cylinder?
For a 32 mm bore, this cylinder provides 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires more force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa) is a direct path. For strokes over 300 mm, especially with a 12 mm rod, avoid side loading; an external guide rail or a guided cylinder assembly is strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
When replacing an existing unit, match these five points exactly: 32 mm bore, 530 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting (no bracket), and the absence of a magnet. This is a tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC32 of the same configuration.
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 SC32X530 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N (pull force is 345 N). At 0.7 MPa, push force increases to 563 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
It is not recommended. The 12 mm rod is slender for a 530 mm stroke. Any side load, even from a misaligned clevis, can bend the rod or damage the piston bearing. Always use an external guide rail or a rod-alignment coupler for long-stroke applications.
