The AirTAC AirTAC SDA32X90 Compact Cylinder | 32mm Bore is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (thin) air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm 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 SDA32X90 is a double-acting single-rod compact cylinder engineered to deliver 402.1 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. Its riveted assembly merges the barrel, rear cover, piston, and rod to drastically reduce axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units. The 32 mm bore features a hard-anodized inner wall and a two-way piston seal for reliable pneumatic performance.
This 90 mm stroke model incorporates a 12 mm piston rod and PT1/8 air ports. End-stop deceleration is handled strictly by a fixed NBR bumper at each end, which is not a field-adjustable air cushion. Because this specific SKU lacks the S option code, it has no internal piston magnet and cannot be paired with magnetic switches.

Ejects finished aluminum parts from a machining center fixture, utilizing the 402.1 N push force to overcome friction without demanding excessive axial mounting space.
Folds corrugated cardboard flaps prior to tape sealing on a packaging line, where the 90 mm stroke provides the precise reach needed for varying box dimensions.
Actuates a routing diverter arm on a parcel handling conveyor, with the fixed NBR bumper absorbing the kinetic energy of the 12 mm rod at the end of travel.
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, stepping down to the SDA25 yields 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDA40 provides 628.3 N at the same pressure. The 90 mm stroke sits well within the 130 mm maximum standard stroke limit for this bore size. Based on the 402.1 N output at 0.5 MPa, a safe working load is roughly 241 N (about 60 percent capacity), translating to a vertical lift capability of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Ensure your ordering essentials match your assembly needs: 32 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, female M6x1.0 rod-end thread (or male M10x1.25 if specified), and no sensor magnet. Note that a standard compact cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the fixed bumper only decelerates the stroke end rather than locking the load. An external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to hold a vertical load safely.
Quick checklist
This double-acting 32 mm bore cylinder generates 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 563 N push at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.
No. This model uses a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke end, which cannot be field-adjusted like an air cushion. Additionally, this specific SKU lacks the S option code, meaning it has no piston magnet and cannot support reed or electronic switches.
