The AirTAC SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32BX40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 40mm 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 SE32BX40S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact pneumatic tasks. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it integrates a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance in washdown or chemically exposed environments. The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a flush, space-saving profile that simplifies direct mounting on machinery.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (code S), this unit seamlessly interfaces with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. Field-adjustable air cushions at both ends allow technicians to tune deceleration, softening hard mechanical stops during high-speed 30-800 mm/s cycling. It is a true deceleration device, not a locking mechanism.

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).
The SUS304 rod prevents contamination in clinical analyzers, while the 402 N push force securely positions test carriages over a 40 mm stroke.
Provides rapid 30-800 mm/s actuation for cutting and sealing films, with the -S magnet triggering DMSE sensors for precise end-of-stroke timing.
The tie-rod-free extruded profile mounts flush to PCB routing machines, applying 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa to hold boards without marring surfaces.
Delivering 402 N push at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore is the smallest standard ISO 15552 size available. If your application requires less force, you would step out of the ISO 15552 standard entirely, but if you need more power, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Because the stroke is only 40 mm, side-load stress on the M10x1.25 rod thread is minimal, though external guides are always recommended for lateral loads.
This cylinder serves as a direct replacement for any ISO 15552 footprint, matching standard mounting dimensions and PT1/8 ports. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not hold a load if air pressure is lost. For position holding, consider a BSE rod lock variant or an external pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The SE32BX40S provides 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a PT1/8 port.
Yes, the SE32BX40S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares the exact mounting footprint and PT1/8 port locations of equivalent profile cylinders, enabling a seamless retrofit.
