About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X15
The AirTAC SE32X15 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact actuation. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force, making it ideal for precise, short-stroke tasks. Its 15 mm stroke is a non-standard configuration, manufactured to order for specialized machine movements where standard 25 mm travels are too long.
The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush in tight spaces. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, protecting the internal mechanics from harsh impacts. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, meaning it is not equipped for CMSE or DMSE position sensing out of the box.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X15 Is Used
PCB Edge Guide Clamping
Provides 402 N of clamping force on an electronics assembly line, securely holding delicate printed circuit boards for robotic soldering within a tight 15 mm travel.
Film Feed Nipper Actuation
Drives a high-speed nipper mechanism on a vertical form-fill-seal machine, using its short 15 mm stroke to precisely cut and feed packaging film without overshooting.
Small Part Ejection
Ejects small stamped metal parts from a progressive die set, utilizing the smooth profile barrel for flush mounting in confined press enclosures.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X15 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 32 mm bore provides 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, there is no smaller bore in the SE series, but stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa for heavier loads. Because this is a non-standard 15 mm stroke, it is made to order. As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, utilizing a PT1/8 port, an M10x1.25 rod thread, and standard mounting accessories. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress on the rod bearing is minimal, though external guidance is always recommended for rigid loads.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder cannot hold a load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. If your short-stroke application demands strict position holding without live pressure, consider the BSE rod-lock variant instead of relying on the air cushion, which only decelerates the piston near stroke end.
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 SE32X15 FAQ
The SE32X15 generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards, meaning it shares the exact mounting footprint and PT1/8 port of other 32mm ISO 15552 cylinders. However, it does not hold its position if air is lost; for dead-load holding, you would need the BSE variant with a rod lock.
