About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X138S
The AirTAC SE32X138S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact pneumatics. It delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid fit for light-duty cycling. The 138 mm stroke is a standard size, ensuring quick availability.
Built with an extruded aluminum barrel, this model eliminates external tie rods to resist corrosion and mount flush in tight spaces. The built-in magnet (-S) supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise end-of-stroke detection. Field-adjustable air cushions at both ends let you tune deceleration to soften hard impacts at high cycle rates.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X138S Is Used
PCB Depaneling Router
Drives a cutting head along a 138 mm axis to singulate printed circuit boards, utilizing the 402 N push force to maintain steady routing pressure.
Carton Flap Folding
Actuates small folder flaps on packaging lines, where the 345 N pull force reliably tucks cardboard without crushing the material.
Lab Dispenser Positioning
Moves a pipette array over microplates, relying on the CMSE magnet sensor to verify the exact 138 mm stroke endpoint for fluid dispensing.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X138S the Right Cylinder?
Stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while dropping below 32 mm is not standard in the SE line. Because this is a 138 mm stroke, side loads are moderate, but always verify the rod-end thread M10x1.25 alignment when rigging linkages. If your process requires holding a load without live air pressure, this cylinder will drift, and you must specify a BSE rod-lock variant. For ISO 15552 retrofits, match the 32 mm bore, 138 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and basic mounting footprint for a direct drop-in replacement.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X138S FAQ
The SE32X138S delivers 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 features a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 thread and a PT1/8 port.
Yes, the SE32X138S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562. You can drop it into existing mounting hardware using the same 32 mm bore and 138 mm stroke footprint, and the adjustable cushions can be tuned to match your previous setup.
