The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X90S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X90 is a compact double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). With a 32 mm bore and a 90 mm stroke, it is well-suited for light clamping, sorting, and ejector tasks where space is limited.
This model features a 12 mm piston rod with M10x1.25 threads and a 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end. The body length A is 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 230 mm. PT1/8 ports and standard TPU seals (-20 to +70 °C) make it a direct fit for many small-automation builds.

The 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa is ideal for fixturing and clamping small components during assembly or machining, with the 90 mm stroke providing ample jaw travel.
Use the SC32X90 to actuate gates or paddles on a conveyor line. Its fast 30-800 mm/s speed range keeps up with high-cycle sorting operations.
The 12 mm rod and compact 140 mm body length fit neatly into tight tooling spaces, making this cylinder a reliable choice for part-ejection stations.
Choose the SC32 when your application needs up to 402 N at 0.5 MPa. If you require more force, step up to the SC40 bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa). For strokes of 300 mm or longer on this 12 mm rod, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing from side loads.
To replace an existing SC32X90, match five points: 32 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no magnet. This ensures identical fit and performance to the original AirTAC SC unit.
Quick checklist
At 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, push force reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
No. The SC series is a tie-rod cylinder that is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is not dimensionally interchangeable. Only replace another AirTAC SC32 cylinder with the same bore, stroke, port thread, and mounting.
