The AirTAC Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X290 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 290mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SE32X290 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 clean extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting corrosion.
This 32 mm bore unit features a 12 mm rod and field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends to soften end-stop impacts. Because this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet, it does not support CMSE or DMSE electronic position sensing without modification.

Indexes tool cassettes in CNC routing cells, using the 290 mm stroke to reach secondary tool racks while the 402 N push force securely seats the collet.
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging conveyor, where the compact tie-rod-free profile clears the tight frame geometry of adjacent belt rollers.
Pushes processed test tubes out of a centrifuge carousel, relying on the adjustable end cushions to prevent glass breakage at the end of the 290 mm extension.
Choosing this 32 mm bore makes sense when your application requires roughly 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less power, the neighboring smaller ISO 15552 size does not exist in this series, but stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push for heavier loads. As a true ISO 15552 cylinder, it serves as a drop-in replacement for any standard 32 mm bore, 290 mm stroke profile cylinder using the same PT1/8 ports and mounting accessories.
With a 290 mm stroke, the 12 mm piston rod is highly susceptible to bending under lateral stress. Always use an external guide rail to support the load and prevent rod-bearing wear, as the cylinder itself cannot hold the load if air pressure is lost.
Quick checklist
The SE32X290 provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N, and the maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a PT1/8 port.
No, the SE32X290 is a standard double-acting cylinder and will drift if air pressure is lost. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not function as a locking mechanism. For position holding, consider a BSE series rod lock cylinder.
