The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X80N is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC32X80N 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 maximum operating pressure). Its 80 mm stroke is a standard length for the 32 mm bore, well within the 1000 mm maximum, making it a ready-to-ship actuator for light automation tasks.
This variant is fitted with NBR (nitrile) seals, offering reliable performance in standard industrial environments. The 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports keep the unit lightweight, while the 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end protects the end caps during high-cycle operation.

Pushes lightweight components off a conveyor line. The 80 mm stroke provides enough travel for clean separation in compact packaging machines.
Applies consistent 402 N holding force for gluing or assembly jigs. The NBR seals are compatible with many standard cutting fluids and light oils.
Ideal for life-cycle test fixtures requiring thousands of cycles. The adjustable cushion reduces end-of-stroke impact, preserving the unit's service life.
Choose the SC32 when your application needs up to 402 N of force at standard plant pressure. If you require more power, stepping up to the SC40 provides 628 N at the same 0.5 MPa. For strokes significantly longer than this 80 mm unit, ensure the 12 mm rod is not subjected to side loads, which can cause bending.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, NBR seal material, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. This model does not include a magnet, so if you need position sensing, select the -S variant and add compatible CMSG/DMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 32 mm bore cylinder generates 563 N of push force. The pull force at the same pressure is lower due to the rod area; refer to the datasheet for full retraction force values.
No, the SC32X80N model does not have a built-in magnet. To mount CMSG or DMSG sensors directly on the barrel, you need the SC32X80S variant, which includes the magnet option.
