The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X560 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 560mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X560 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 12 mm piston rod and a 560 mm stroke, this non-standard extended length suits applications needing a slim 32 mm bore profile with longer reach than the standard 500 mm limit.
Its adjustable pneumatic cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke ends, reducing impact noise. The PT1/8 ports and M10x1.25 rod thread provide standard connectivity, while the 140 mm body length A keeps the overall envelope tight for space-constrained machinery.

The 560 mm stroke reaches across narrow conveyors to divert lightweight packages or components, operating reliably at 30-800 mm/s with filtered air.
Delivers consistent 402 N push at 0.5 MPa to press labels onto products. The adjustable cushion protects delicate applicator heads from impact damage.
Ideal for linear sampling mechanisms where a compact 32 mm bore and extended 560 mm stroke retrieve samples from deep chambers with clean, oil-free air.
For a 32 mm bore at 560 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally—the slender 12 mm rod is vulnerable to bending under side loads at this extension. If higher force is needed, stepping up to the 40 mm bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa) may be more suitable.
To replace an existing SC32X560, match five points exactly: 32 mm bore, 560 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no magnet. This is a non-standard stroke, so confirm lead time with your AirTAC distributor.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SC32X560 produces 563 N of push force on extension and 345 N of pull force on retraction (the retraction force is lower due to the 12 mm rod area). At the maximum 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 724 N.
No, the maximum standard stroke for the 32 mm bore SC cylinder is 500 mm. The 560 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length. You should confirm availability and lead time, and consider an external guide to support the fully extended rod against side loads.
