The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X650 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 650mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X650 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a 650 mm non-standard stroke, extending beyond the standard 1000 mm maximum for this bore. It produces a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa and 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for light to medium linear actuation tasks.
This model features a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 rod thread and PT1/8 ports. The adjustable air cushion, with a 21 mm cushion length, decelerates the piston at stroke ends to reduce impact. The body length A is 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 790 mm. The standard TPU seals operate reliably from -20 to +70 °C.

The 650 mm stroke and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for actuating stop gates on light-duty conveyors, diverting small packages or components between lanes.
Provides a long, controlled reach for label applicator arms. The adjustable cushion ensures a smooth stop, preventing label misalignment or damage at the end of the 650 mm stroke.
Used in laboratory automation to move test probes or sensors into position. The tie-rod design allows for easy maintenance, and the non-standard stroke fits custom test chamber depths.
For applications requiring more force, consider stepping up to the 40 mm bore SC40 series, which delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If a shorter, standard stroke is acceptable, the SC32X500 is the longest standard offering for this bore.
At a 650 mm stroke, the 12 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads. An external linear guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the rod and bearings. When replacing this cylinder, match the 32 mm bore, 650 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting configuration, and the absence of a magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 563 N. The pull force on the retract stroke at the same pressure is lower due to the 12 mm rod reducing the piston area, delivering 483 N.
No, the maximum standard stroke for the 32 mm bore SC cylinder is 1000 mm, but 650 mm is not a listed standard stroke increment. This makes the SC32X650 a non-standard, made-to-order length. You must specify the exact 650 mm stroke when ordering.
