Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400
The AirTAC Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 400mm 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.

About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400
The AirTAC SE32X400 is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for compact linear actuation. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force, making it well-suited for lighter-duty machinery. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods, yielding a smooth, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against frames.
This 32 mm bore model features a 12 mm piston rod and a PT1/8 port. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it is not equipped for direct CMSE or DMSE position sensing out of the box. Field-adjustable air cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, softening impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400 Is Used
Package Diverter Gate
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging conveyor, using the 400 mm stroke to shift parcels between sorting lanes with 402 N of push force.
Lab Sample Ejection
Pushes processed test tubes out of a centrifuge carousel, where the smooth tie-rod-free profile prevents dust accumulation in clean environments.
Small Parts Stamping
Drives a sub-press for light-duty metal forming, relying on the adjustable pneumatic cushioning to soften the 800 mm/s impact at stroke end.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting the SE32X400 is ideal when an application requires a 400 mm stroke within a tight 32 mm bore footprint. If your project demands less force, stepping down is not an option as 32 mm is the smallest standard SE bore. If you need substantially more thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. Because this cylinder exerts a maximum thrust of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa, ensure your mounting hardware is rated accordingly.
At 400 mm of stroke, the 12 mm rod is subject to bending moments under heavy side loads; utilizing an external guide rail prevents rod-bearing wear and preserves seal integrity. Note that a plain SE cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, so a BSE rod lock variant is required for fail-safe load holding. As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 component, it serves as a direct drop-in replacement for other 32 mm bore profile cylinders sharing the PT1/8 port and standard mounting pattern.
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 SE32X400 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the SE32X400 provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N. The maximum thrust is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
This specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot support AirTAC CMSE or DMSE position sensors without modification. However, it is a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, meaning it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders of the same 32 mm bore and mounting type.
