About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400SH
The AirTAC SE32X400SH is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for high-temperature and extended-stroke automation. It delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 32 mm bore and 400 mm stroke. The H seal designation indicates an FKM (Viton) elastomer, expanding the operating temperature range up to 150 C for harsh thermal environments.
The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods, yielding a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush in tight machinery spaces. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to dial in end-of-stroke deceleration via a screw, softening hard impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s. The integrated S magnet directly interfaces with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise position detection.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400SH Is Used
Thermoforming Ejector
Ejects formed plastic parts from 150 C molds, leveraging the FKM seal to withstand ambient heat while applying 402 N of push across the 400 mm stroke.
Drying Oven Diverter
Actuates a routing gate inside a heated textile drying oven, where the Viton seal prevents degradation and the built-in magnet triggers DMSE sensors for timing.
Lab Coating Arm
Drives a 400 mm dispensing arm for chemical coating processes, using the no-tie-rod extruded profile to resist corrosive vapors and maintain smooth linear motion.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X400SH the Right Cylinder?
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore yields 402 N push. If your mechanism requires 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 provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Keep in mind that a plain double-acting cylinder does not hold its position or load when air is exhausted or a valve centers; the piston drifts. For position holding without live pressure, consider the BSE rod lock variant or an external pilot-operated check valve.
For a 400 mm stroke on a 32 mm bore, the 12 mm rod and M10x1.25 thread carry a limited side-load capacity. Long unsupported strokes invite rod-bearing bending; you must use an external guide to prevent binding and premature seal wear. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, serving as a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders using the same PT1/8 port and mounting accessories.
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 SE32X400SH FAQ
The SE32X400SH provides 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 of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
No, the adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a locking mechanism. If the air supply is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. To hold a load without live pressure, use a BSE rod lock cylinder or an external rod lock.
