The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X900 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 900mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X900 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 12 mm diameter piston rod and an M10x1.25 rod thread, this cylinder is well-suited for light clamping, sorting, and ejector applications requiring a 900 mm stroke.
Its 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, reducing impact noise and vibration. The body length A is 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1040 mm. For strokes of this length, ensure the rod is guided externally if side loads are present, as the slender 12 mm rod is designed for axial thrust, not bending.

The 900 mm stroke and 402 N force at 0.5 MPa are ideal for pushing lightweight boxes or totes off a conveyor line onto a perpendicular transfer.
Directs parts on an assembly line. The adjustable cushion allows for high-speed operation without hard stops, preserving the mechanism's alignment.
Provides the long reach needed to eject finised products from a form-fill-seal machine, with the compact tie-rod body fiting into tight spaces.
Choose the SC32X900 when your application requires a compact, light-force actuator with a 900 mm reach. At 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N push force. If your load exceeds this, stepping up to the 40 mm bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa) is recommended. For any stroke over 300 mm, side-load management is critical: an external guide rail or a guided cylinder prevents rod bending and premature bearing wear. When replacing an existing cylinder, match five points exactly: 32 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mount (no accessory), and no magnet. The SC is a tie-rod design and is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 724 N. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The AirTAC SC series is a tie-rod cylinder with a shorter overall body length than an ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It is not dimensionally interchangeable. For a correct replacement, match the SC32 tie-rod design, bore, stroke, PT port, and mounting.
