About the Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S
The SCT32X150X100S provides four fixed rod positions—0 mm, 100 mm, 150 mm, and 250 mm total travel—by pressurising two 32 mm bore piston sections in sequence. Each section delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa), driven through a 12 mm diameter rod with PT1/8 ports and a 21 mm air cushion.
An integrated magnet allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for position feedback at each stop. With a 233 mm body length and TPU seals for -20 to +70 °C operation, this genuine AirTAC unit suits compact multi-stop handling where electronic sensing is required.
Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCT multi-position tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke 1 / Stroke 2 | 150 / 100 mm |
| Total travel | 250 mm |
| Stop positions | 4 positions |
| Acting type | Double acting (tandem, multi-position) |
| 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 / section | Up to 500 mm standard |
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.
Stop Positions (4)
| Position | Rod extension |
|---|---|
| P0 (retracted) | 0 mm |
| P1 (section 1) | 150 mm |
| P2 (section 2) | 100 mm |
| P3 (both extended) | 250 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S Is Used
Two-Way Diverter Gate
Uses the 100 mm and 150 mm stops to route packages to two separate conveyor lanes from a single infeed point.
Multi-Depth Insertion
Pushes components to a shallow 100 mm pre-insertion depth or a full 150 mm seating depth in a two-stage assembly press.
Staged Part Ejection
Ejects parts to a 100 mm intermediate bin for QC sampling or a 150 mm final bin for pass products, controlled by sensor-confirmed position.
Is the Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 4-position tandem when a single cylinder must deliver two different intermediate stops without the complexity of two separate actuators. For lighter loads, the same 32 mm bore provides 345 N pulling force per section; if you need more thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore (SCT40) gives 628 N push per section at the same pressure. Ensure the 150 mm and 100 mm stroke sections align with your stop requirements.
For replacement, match the SCT32 bore, both strokes (150 mm and 100 mm), PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. Since the longer section exceeds 100 mm, check side-load alignment and consider external guides if the rod is subjected to off-axis forces.
Multi-position checklist
- ✓ Need 4 repeatable stops?
- ✓ Section strokes 150 + 100 mm suit your layout?
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ 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 Plumb the two sections to the correct valves for each stop.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCT mounting accessory (FA / FB / CA / CB / LB).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SCT32-63 Multi-Position Tandem Air Cylinder SCT32X150X100S FAQ
It has four discrete mechanical stops: 0 mm (fully retracted), 100 mm (second section extended), 150 mm (first section extended), and 250 mm (both sections extended).
Only if your application specifically needs the four fixed stops. It replaces an existing AirTAC SCT32 with 150 mm and 100 mm strokes, PT ports, and a magnet. It is not a direct functional swap for a standard single-stroke SC cylinder.
