About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X490S
The AirTAC SE32X490S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 490 mm stroke. The square extruded aluminum barrel lacks external tie rods, yielding a compact footprint that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting corrosion.
This unit includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct compatibility with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, softening hard mechanical impacts during high-speed cycling.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X490S Is Used
PCB Drill Tool Changer
Handles the 490 mm vertical reach to index drill bits in automated CNC routers, utilizing the 402 N push force and compact 32 mm profile.
Bottle Diverter Gate
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging line, where the integrated magnet triggers DMSE sensors to confirm gate position before product flow.
Lab Sample Dispenser
Drives a 490 mm volumetric dispensing probe into test tubes, relying on adjustable end cushions to prevent liquid splashing at high speeds.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X490S the Right Cylinder?
If you need less reach or force, the SE40 bore provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping down is not possible as 32 mm is the smallest available SE bore. Because this is a 490 mm stroke, the 12 mm rod and bearing face bending stresses under side loads; an external guide rail is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal wear.
As a standard ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, allowing you to reuse existing mounting hardware. This specific configuration uses a PT1/8 port, a 27 mm cushion length, and an M10x1.25 rod thread.
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 SE32X490S FAQ
The SE32X490S generates a push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa and 563 N at 0.7 MPa. The pull force is 345 N at 0.5 MPa, with a maximum push force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not lock the load. If position holding without live air pressure is required, use a BSE rod lock variant or an external pilot-operated check valve.
