The AirTAC Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X520S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 520mm 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 SE32X520S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 520 mm stroke. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and operates on clean, 40-micron filtered air. The square extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact body that mounts flush against machine frames while resisting corrosion.
This specific unit includes a built-in magnet (-S) for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The integrated sensor grooves on three sides of the body allow flexible switch placement along the stroke. Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration to protect payloads during high-speed cycling.

Actuates the cutting head across 520 mm travel in an electronics assembly line, using the 402 N push force to maintain steady positioning against router vibration.
Pushes lightweight plastic housings from a main conveyor belt to an inspection lane, relying on the 345 N pull force for rapid retraction at speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Extends a sample tray carriage inside analytical equipment, utilizing the built-in magnet and DMSE sensors to confirm full extension at 520 mm before the test cycle begins.
This 32 mm bore generates 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, you must step down to a smaller bore, but as 32 mm is the smallest in the SE range, you would instead optimize pressure or leverage a mechanical advantage. If you need more power, stepping up to a 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because this is a 520 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads; always pair this cylinder with an external linear guide to prevent rod-bearing damage. As a true ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders, allowing you to retrofit the bore, stroke, PT1/8 port, and mounting hardware without altering the machine footprint. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not hold a load. If unpowered position holding is required, use a BSE rod lock variant.
Quick checklist
The 32 mm bore produces 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. The maximum push force is 82 kgf at the 1.0 MPa operating pressure limit.
Yes, the SE32X520S includes a built-in magnet (-S) designed to work with AirTAC CMSE reed switches and DMSE electronic sensors. The sensors mount directly into the extruded barrel's grooves, which are machined on three sides for flexible placement along the 520 mm stroke.
