Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S
The AirTAC Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø12mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø32mm bore, 110mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S
The SCD32X110S is a compact double-rod pneumatic cylinder that outputs exactly 345 N of force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, thanks to its through-rod design where the 12 mm rod occupies both pressure areas equally. This symmetry makes it ideal for applications needing consistent speed and thrust on the extend and retract strokes, such as operating a two-sided tool or a transfer mechanism that must not twist.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (denoted by the -S suffix), this model accepts CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors directly on its tie-rod barrel for non-contact position sensing. The 21 mm air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly, and the PT1/8 ports keep the plumbing compact. With a body length of 187 mm, it fits into tight spaces where a guided rod on both ends is needed.

|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø12 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 110 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 21 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1000 mm |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCD (double-rod) datasheet. Because the rod runs through both caps, the effective area is (bore² − rod²) in both directions. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf | |
Push and pull are EQUAL on a double-rod cylinder — both chambers lose the rod area, so effective area = (bore² − rod²) each way. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S Is Used
Two-Sided Actuation
Operates tooling on both ends of the cylinder with perfectly matched force and speed, ideal for symmetrical clamping or forming fixtures.
Rear Rod Sensing
The -S magnet and exposed rear rod allow mounting a sensor flag or cam on the back side to confirm full retraction in a compact envelope.
Anti-Rotation Pusher
The dual-rod guidance provides better resistance to twisting than a single-rod cylinder, useful for light-duty pushing without a separate guide rail.
Is the Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SCD32 bore when your application requires a light, balanced push-pull force up to 621 N at the maximum 0.9 MPa operating pressure. If you need more thrust, stepping up to the SCD40 bore provides 528 N at the same 0.5 MPa. This double-rod unit is the right choice over the single-rod SC series when you need to mount tooling or a cam on the rear rod, or when the inherent anti-rotation of the through-rod improves your mechanism's stability. For a direct replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 110 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option. The 110 mm stroke is well within the 1000 mm maximum standard length for this bore, keeping lead times short.
Double-rod checklist
- ✓ Need equal force / speed both directions?
- ✓ Rear rod for tooling, stopper or sensor flag?
- ✓ Better rod guidance / anti-rotation?
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep BOTH rod ends clear of side load and interference.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCD mounting accessory (FA / LB / TC / TCM1).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SCD Standard Cylinder SCD32X110S FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the push and pull forces are identical. At 0.5 MPa it outputs 345 N, at 0.7 MPa it is 483 N, and at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa it reaches 621 N in both directions.
Choose the SCD when you need a piston rod on both ends. This allows you to mount a load or tooling on each side, use the rear rod for an external position flag, or gain better rod bearing support to reduce deflection. The force output is equal in both directions, unlike a single-rod cylinder where the pull force is lower.
