About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X185S
The AirTAC SE32X185S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32mm bore and 185mm stroke. It generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for compact, lower-force automation tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a smooth, corrosion-resistant profile that mounts flush against machine frames while saving valuable space.
This specific unit includes a built-in magnet (S option) for non-contact position sensing using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. To protect the piston and tooling from harsh end-of-stroke impacts, it features field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends. You can tune the cushion screws on the 27mm cushion length to perfectly match the moving load and speed, ensuring smooth deceleration rather than a harsh metal stop.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X185S Is Used
PCB Router Clamping
Secures small printed circuit boards during routing operations, utilizing the 402N push force to hold parts firmly without crushing delicate components.
Carton Flap Folding
Drives small pneumatic fingers to fold minor flaps on packaging lines, where the 185mm stroke provides the exact reach needed to clear passing cartons.
Lab Sample Diverting
Actuates a diverter arm on diagnostic equipment, using the built-in magnet and DMSE electronic sensors to confirm sample routing positions.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X185S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32mm bore if your application requires around 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force and faster cycling, stepping down to the 20mm bore (which provides 314 N push at 0.5 MPa) might be appropriate, though note that 20mm is outside the standard SE ISO 15552 family. If your load is heavier, the next size up is the 40mm bore, which provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. Remember that a plain double-acting cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; if your machine requires fail-safe load holding, you must integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or use a BSE series rod lock. At 185mm stroke, the 12mm rod is relatively short and well-supported, but for any stroke 300mm or longer, you should add an external guide to prevent rod-bearing bending under side loads.
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 SE32X185S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N. The maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE32X185S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 standards. It shares the same mounting footprint and PT1/8 port size, meaning you can drop it in as a replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders without modifying the machine frame.
