About the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X500SH
The AirTAC SE32X500SH is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder built to the ISO 15552 standard. In the 32mm bore class, it generates 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 563 N at 0.7 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel design omits external tie rods, yielding a compact, flush-mounting body that naturally resists corrosion and simplifies sensor placement along its three integrated grooves.
Configured with an FKM (Viton) seal, this unit operates reliably in elevated thermal environments up to 150 °C where standard elastomers would fail. The built-in magnet enables seamless position detection with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches, while the field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration for the 500 mm travel.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X500SH Is Used
Plastic Injection Mold Extraction
Utilizes the 402 N extend force and 500 mm stroke to positively eject hot plastic parts from molds, leveraging the FKM seal to withstand ambient radiant heat up to 150 °C.
High-Temp Divert Gate
Actuates a routing flap on a conveyor system moving hot stamped metal components, using the magnetic piston to trigger DMSE electronic sensors for position confirmation.
Lab Oven Door Mechanism
Opens and closes the insulated door of an industrial curing oven, relying on the Viton FKM seals to maintain integrity in continuous 120 °C operating environments.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X500SH the Right Cylinder?
Generating 402 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, the 32mm bore is optimal for lighter-duty cycling. If your assembly requires less force, there is no smaller standard ISO 15552 bore in this series, so you would instead reduce your operating pressure. If you need to step up the power for heavier payloads, the next size up is the 40mm bore, which provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. Keep in mind that a plain double-acting cylinder like this drifts when air is removed or a valve is centered; if the mechanism must hold a vertical load without live pressure, integrate a BSE rod lock or an external pilot-operated check valve.
At 500 mm of stroke, the unsupported mass of the piston rod introduces a higher risk of bearing bending under lateral stress. To prevent premature seal wear and rod scoring, guide the load externally rather than relying solely on the cylinder bearings. This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet for CMSE/DMSE sensors and uses a PT1/8 port. For an ISO 15552 retrofit, match the 32mm bore, 500mm stroke, and your preferred mounting accessory (such as an FA front flange or LB foot) for a direct dimensional drop-in.
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 SE32X500SH FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the 32mm bore 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.
Yes. The SE32X500SH is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, meaning it shares the exact same mounting footprint and physical dimensions as other standard profile cylinders. You can swap it directly using your existing FA, LB, or TC mounting hardware without redesigning the machine frame.
