The AirTAC SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32BX260S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 260mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SE32BX260S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for precise linear motion. It delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for lighter-duty automation. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods, yielding a compact, flush-mounting body that resists corner damage and corrosion.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance in washdown or chemically active environments. The built-in magnet (code S) supports position sensing via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches, while the field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows you to fine-tune end-of-stroke deceleration for smoother operation.

Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B). Seals: TPU (blank) / FKM high-temp (H) / NBR (N). Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting: Basic, LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, CR, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2. Related SE-family variants: SED (double rod), SEJ (adjustable stroke), BSE (rod lock), BSED (double-rod rod lock).
Drives the rotary-to-linear motion for end-seal cutting jaws on horizontal flow wrappers, utilizing the 260 mm stroke and 402 N push to cleanly crimp packaging film.
Actuates precision liquid dispensing heads in diagnostic analyzers, where the SUS304 rod prevents corrosion from chemical splashes and the -S magnet tracks fill cycles.
Shifts lightweight diverter gates on conveyor lines, relying on the adjustable pneumatic cushion to soften the 260 mm stroke impact and prevent pallet jarring.
Stepping down is not an option as the 32 mm bore is the smallest available in the SE range. If your application requires greater thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore provides 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Keep in mind that a standard SE cylinder relies on live air pressure to maintain its position; if air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. For load-holding without continuous pressure, consider the BSE rod-lock variant.
For a direct ISO 15552 replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and your required mounting accessory. Because the stroke is 260 mm, the 12 mm rod and rod-end thread M10x1.25 carry an inherent risk of bending under lateral stress; an external guide is recommended to prevent side-load damage to the rod bearing.
Quick checklist
The SE32BX260S generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N. The maximum allowable push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the SE32BX260S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a direct replacement for other standard profile cylinders. You can reuse existing mounting hardware and utilize the built-in magnet with AirTAC CMSE or DMSE sensors.
