The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X940S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 940mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X940S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic 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 32 mm bore and a long 940 mm stroke, this model features a 12 mm diameter piston rod and a 21 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the load smoothly at end-of-travel.
The integrated magnet (denoted by the -S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the tie-rod barrel for precise position feedback. This cylinder is ideal for automated transfer lines and material handling where end-of-stroke sensing is required without external brackets.

Moves components 940 mm across assembly stations, with magnetic sensors confirming extend and retract positions for interlock safety.
Operates a long-throw diverter gate on a conveyor line, using the 724 N push force at 0.9 MPa to shift product lanes reliably.
Acts as a pneumatic stop at the end of a gravity roller conveyor, cushioning the impact of a pallet with its 21 mm adjustable cushion.
For applications requiring slightly more force, step up to the 40 mm bore SC40 series, which provides 628 N at 0.5 MPa. With a 940 mm stroke, the 12 mm rod is relatively slender; ensure the load is guided externally or use a guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear under side loads. To match this cylinder as a replacement, verify five points: 32 mm bore, 940 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the basic mounting configuration, and the presence of the built-in magnet (-S) for sensor compatibility.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, 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.
Yes. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet on the piston. This allows you to clamp compatible AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors directly onto the cylinder's tie-rods to detect end-of-stroke or intermediate positions.
