The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X950LB is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 950mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X950LB is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa). Its 32 mm bore and 12 mm piston rod drive a 950 mm stroke, making it a practical solution for long-reach material transfer and actuation tasks.
This model includes the LB foot-mount accessory (F-SC32LB) for secure surface mounting on the barrel. The 21 mm adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, protecting end caps during high-cycle operation. Ports are PT1/8 with an M10x1.25 rod thread.

The 950 mm stroke pushes components across a wide conveyor lane. The LB foot mount anchors the cylinder body firmly to the machine frame.
Actuates a diverter gate in material handling systems. Adjustable cushioning reduces impact noise at the end of the long travel.
Moves lightweight cartons between packaging stations. The compact tie-rod design fits into narrow machine envelopes.
For higher force, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N at 0.5 MPa). At 950 mm, the stroke is near the 1000 mm maximum for this bore. The 12 mm rod is slender; if the load applies any side force, use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing from bending and premature seal wear.
When replacing, match five points: 32 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, LB foot mount, and confirm the magnet requirement (this model has no built-in magnet).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes with 402 N and pulls with 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 724 N.
No. The 12 mm rod is not designed for unsupported side loads at this stroke length. You must install an external linear guide or use a guided cylinder to absorb bending moments and prevent rod bearing failure.
