The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X60S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X60S is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at the 0.9 MPa max operating pressure). Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and 60 mm stroke suit short linear movements in automated assembly and clamping fixtures.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors to be mounted directly on the barrel for end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly, and the PT1/8 port thread is standard.

The built-in magnet enables precise end-of-stroke sensing for automated clamping and holding operations in CNC fixtures and assembly jigs.
With 724 N of force at 0.9 MPa and a 60 mm stroke, this cylinder reliably ejects lightweight components from conveyors or sorting chutes.
Compact 32 mm bore and sensor-ready design fit tight lab automation setups for test-tube handling or microplate positioning.
Choose the SC32X60S when 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa is sufficient. For higher force in the same bore family, step up to the SC40 (628 N at 0.5 MPa). When replacing an existing cylinder, match all five points: 32 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, built-in magnet (-S), and basic (no bracket) mounting. The SC is a tie-rod cylinder and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 402 N and pull force is 345 N. At 0.7 MPa push force reaches 563 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it delivers 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors clamp directly onto the barrel for contactless position sensing without additional brackets.
