The AirTAC AirTAC SDA32X35BH Compact Cylinder | 32mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and a riveted short body that saves mounting depth. Sensor slots around the body accept magnetic switches for position sensing.
The AirTAC SDA32X35BH is a double-acting, single-rod compact cylinder engineered with a 32 mm bore and 35 mm stroke. It yields 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Equipped with an FKM fluororubber seal, this unit handles higher thermal and oil exposure than standard NBR designs. The riveted unibody architecture drastically reduces axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units, freeing up valuable machine footprint.
This specific SKU features a male M10x1.25 threaded piston rod end for direct load coupling, overriding the default female M6x1.0 port. Because it lacks the -S magnet code, it cannot host reed or electronic switches. End-of-travel deceleration relies strictly on fixed NBR bumpers rather than a field-adjustable air cushion, meaning high-energy cycles may require an external shock absorber.

Secures aluminum engine blocks during machining operations, utilizing the 402.1 N extend force and FKM seals to withstand cutting fluid spray.
Actuates trim dies on PET bottle lines where elevated ambient heat from plastic extrusion requires fluororubber elastomers for longevity.
Pushes misaligned cartons off a high-speed packaging belt using the male M10x1.25 rod end to drive a robust mechanical linkage.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, step down to the SDA25 for 245.4 N @0.5 MPa or step up to the SDA40 for 628.3 N @0.5 MPa. For the SDA32X35BH, a safe working load is roughly 241 N (about 60% of the 402.1 N @0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Ensure your order specifies the PT1/8 port, the 35 mm stroke, the male M10x1.25 rod thread, and the FKM seal. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the fixed bumper only slows the piston near stroke end and will not lock the load. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if position holding is mandatory.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder generates 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa, and the operational speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal piston magnet, so it cannot trigger reed or electronic switches. You must select the -S option code to enable sensing capabilities. Additionally, end damping is provided by fixed NBR bumpers rather than an adjustable cushion, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-velocity applications.
