About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X8S
The AirTAC SC32X8S is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a very short 8 mm stroke, ideal for ejector, clamping, and sorting tasks where space is tight. Its 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports keep the footprint small while delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (563 N at 0.7 MPa).
The built-in magnet (denoted by the -S suffix) allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to mount directly on the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The adjustable air cushion (21 mm length) decelerates the piston smoothly, and the standard TPU seals provide a working range of -20 to +70 °C.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X8S Is Used
Part Ejection
The 8 mm stroke and 402 N push force quickly eject small plastic or metal parts from a die or conveyor, with magnetic sensors confirming each cycle.
Compact Clamping
Short-stroke clamping of thin workpieces in assembly jigs. The 32 mm bore provides ample force without requiring a bulky cylinder body.
Sorting Gates
Operates a small diverter gate on a packaging line. The -S magnet lets a CMSG sensor verify gate position at both ends of the 8 mm travel.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X8S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC32X8S for light push-eject or sorting stations that need magnetic piston sensing in a very short stroke. If you require more force, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa). For strokes longer than 300 mm on a 32 mm bore, consider an external guide to protect the 12 mm rod from side-load bending. When replacing an existing cylinder, match bore, stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet (-S), and the basic (no bracket) mounting 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 SC32X8S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402 N pushing and 345 N pulling. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
Yes. The -S suffix means a magnet is built into the piston, so AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors can be clamped directly onto the barrel to detect piston position.
