About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X170S
The AirTAC SE32X170S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 standard, delivering a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa. Its 32 mm bore and 170 mm stroke provide compact linear motion for lighter-duty machinery. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against machine frames.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (S option), this unit directly supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic position sensors dropped into the body grooves. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a setscrew, softening hard impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X170S Is Used
PCB Depaneling Router
Provides the 402 N push at 0.5 MPa needed to drive the Z-axis plunge on a printed circuit board depaneling router, utilizing the 170 mm stroke to clear tool changes.
Small Carton Flap Folder
Actuates a mechanical arm to fold minor flaps on small pharmaceutical cartons, where the smooth tie-rod-free barrel prevents snagging on passing packaging materials.
Lab Sample Dispenser
Drives a precision pipetting head down into reagent trays, relying on the built-in magnet and DMSE electronic sensors to confirm exact fluid draw positions.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X170S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SE32X170S is ideal when your application requires roughly 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force and a smaller footprint, the adjacent 32 mm bore is the smallest standard size available. If your load demands more thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. Because this is a 170 mm stroke, it falls under the 300 mm threshold, but always ensure the load is guided to prevent rod-bearing wear.
As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, the SE32X170S is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, allowing you to retrofit existing setups without altering mounting hardware. It uses a PT1/8 port and a 12 mm rod. Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not hold the load. If pneumatic pressure is lost, the rod will drift, requiring an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for position holding.
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 SE32X170S FAQ
The SE32X170S delivers a push force of 402 N and a pull force of 345 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE32X170S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, meaning it shares the exact same mounting footprint and rod thread dimensions as other standard ISO 15552 profile cylinders. You can drop it into existing FA or LB mounting brackets without machining.
