About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X20
The AirTAC SE32X20 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 standard, delivering a 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. Its 20 mm stroke makes it highly effective for short-travel clamping and ejection tasks where space is tight.
Unlike traditional tie-rod bodies, this unit utilizes a square extruded aluminum barrel that allows flush mounting and resists corrosion. The pneumatic cushioning at both ends is field-adjustable via a setscrew, letting you tune end-of-stroke deceleration to protect tooling. Note this specific SKU lacks a position-sensing magnet.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X20 Is Used
PCB Ejection Arms
Uses the 20 mm stroke to push delicate printed circuit boards out of routing fixtures without overtravel, relying on the 402 N force to overcome release friction.
Carton Flap Tucking
Executes rapid, short-throw tucking of secondary packaging flaps on a filling line, operating efficiently at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Small Part Straightening
Aligns lightweight aluminum brackets prior to robotic welding, utilizing the compact 32 mm profile barrel to fit closely within dense tooling grids.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X20 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when an application requires roughly 400 N of extension force. If your task needs less clamping authority, stepping down is not an option as 32 mm is the smallest available SE size; conversely, if you need greater thrust, the 40 mm bore provides a 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because the plain SE design vents and drifts upon loss of air pressure, do not rely on it to hold vertical loads safely—consider a BSE rod lock for those scenarios. This unit is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, accepting standard mounting accessories and the default PT1/8 port.
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 SE32X20 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push and 345 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 563 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE32X20 is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, meaning it shares standard mounting and port dimensions (PT1/8) with other cylinders in this class. This specific SKU does not have a built-in magnet, so it cannot host CMSE or DMSE position sensors without modifying the piston.
