The AirTAC Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X110X110S is a genuine double-acting MULTI-POSITION (tandem) air cylinder: two piston sections of 110mm and 110mm give 3 controllable stop positions across a 220mm total travel, with a Ø32mm bore, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCT32X110X110S is a double-acting multi-position cylinder that delivers three fixed rod positions: fully retracted (0 mm), an intermediate stop at 110 mm, and full extension at 220 mm. Each piston section generates 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a compact solution for light-duty sorting or diverting tasks where two distinct extended positions are needed from a single tie-rod body.
This model includes a built-in magnet, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be clamped directly onto the barrel for non-contact position confirmation at each stop. With a 12 mm diameter rod and PT1/8 ports, the cylinder body has an A(SCT) dimension of 233 mm and uses an adjustable air cushion to decelerate the load smoothly at both ends of the 220 mm total stroke.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCT (multi-position) datasheet. SCT is available in bores 32–100; each of the two sections has a 500 mm max standard stroke (800 mm max). Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Position | Rod extension |
|---|---|
| P0 (retracted) | 0 mm |
| P1 (section 1) | 110 mm |
| P2 (both extended) | 220 mm |
Positions are set by pressurising section 1, section 2, or both. With equal strokes you get 3 distinct positions; with unequal strokes you get 4.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Force is per actuated piston section (single-piston, same as the SC bore): push uses the full bore area, pull subtracts the rod area. Size with a safety margin.

Use the three positions (0, 110, 220 mm) to guide parts from a single infeed lane to two separate outfeed conveyors, routing items left or right based on a control signal.
Operate a sliding gate with a closed, partially open, and fully open state. The 110 mm intermediate stop allows for metered flow or selective product release on a packaging line.
Control a press platen to two distinct working depths. The cylinder moves to a pre-press position at 110 mm before applying full force at the 220 mm extended position for a two-stage forming process.
Select this 32 mm bore SCT when your application requires three precise, repeatable stops without the complexity of two separate cylinders and external hard stops. The 110 mm per-section stroke provides a balanced intermediate and extended position. If you need higher force, consider stepping up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 628 N of push force per section at the same 0.5 MPa pressure.
For a direct replacement, ensure the new unit matches the 32 mm bore, both 110 mm strokes, PT port thread, and the built-in magnet (-S suffix). This is a basic mount model, so confirm your existing mounting brackets are compatible with the SCT tie-rod body style.
Multi-position checklist
This model provides 3 distinct mechanical stop positions because the two stroke sections are equal. The rod positions are 0 mm (fully retracted), 110 mm (first section extended), and 220 mm (both sections extended for total travel).
The force output is 402 N push and 345 N pull per single actuated piston section at 0.5 MPa. The two sections do not combine their force to act on a single load; they are used to achieve the discrete intermediate stopping positions along the stroke.
