Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X960S
The AirTAC Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X960S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 / VDMA 24562 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 960mm 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 SE32X960S
The AirTAC SE32X960S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder operating at 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. Built to the ISO 15552 standard, its extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods, yielding a compact, corrosion-resistant body that mounts flush against machine frames. This specific configuration includes a 960 mm non-standard stroke and a built-in magnet for position sensing.
Field-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends allows technicians to tune end-of-stroke deceleration via a set screw, softening hard impacts when cycling at speeds up to 800 mm/s. The integrated magnet directly supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, which seat cleanly into the multiple sensor grooves machined into the barrel profile.

Where the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X960S Is Used
Carton Diverting Arm
Uses the 960 mm stroke to push corrugated cartons across a wide sorting belt, relying on the 402 N push force to overcome friction without stalling.
Film Roll Web Tracking
Shifts a packaging film roll laterally to align web edges, utilizing the built-in magnet and DMSE sensors to confirm the extended edge position.
Tote Pusher System
Ejects plastic storage totes from a high-density shelf, using the adjustable end cushions to soften the stop at full extension and prevent tote damage.
Is the Airtac SE32 Standard Cylinder SE32X960S the Right Cylinder?
This 32 mm bore generates 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, a smaller option is not available below 32 mm in this series, but if you need substantially more thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because the 960 mm stroke exceeds the standard maximum of 1000 mm for this bore, it is processed as a non-standard, made-to-order configuration.
At 960 mm, the unsupported piston rod length introduces a significant risk of bending under side loads, so an external guide bearing is strongly recommended to prevent rod-bearing damage. Note that a standard SE cylinder does not hold its position when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. If your machine requires true load holding without live pressure, consider the BSE rod-lock variant. For retrofitting, this model uses a PT1/8 port and shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface of competing profile cylinders, allowing you to reuse existing FA front flange or LB foot brackets.
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 SE32X960S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N push and 345 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 563 N, with a maximum push capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
Yes, the SE32X960S is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. You can swap it directly into existing mounting hardware using standard FA or LB brackets. Just ensure your pneumatic plumbing matches the PT1/8 port.
