The AirTAC Airtac SSA Single-Acting Compact Cylinder SSA32X30H is a genuine single-acting COMPACT cylinder (single acting, push type) with a Ø32mm bore and 30mm stroke. Air pushes the rod and an internal spring returns it, so one solenoid line drives the motion — ideal for short-stroke clamping and ejection in tight spaces.
The AirTAC SSA32X30H is a 32 mm compact single-acting push-type cylinder with a 30 mm stroke. Compressed air extends the rod, while an internal spring handles the return, requiring only one air line and solenoid port to simplify plumbing. This specific SKU features an FKM (fluororubber) seal for enhanced high-temperature and oil resistance, and because it lacks the -S option, it cannot accept magnetic switches.
It provides a net push of 346.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 507.5 N at 0.7 MPa, figures that already subtract the return-spring force. The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth in tight fixtures, and a fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end without acting as an adjustable air cushion or load lock.

| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod end thread | M6×1.0 female / M10×1.25 male (B) |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SDA-family datasheet. Single-acting types start at 0.2 MPa (the spring must be overcome). Confirm against the product label before installation.
| Pressure | Push force (net) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 347 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 508 N |
These are NET output forces — the return-spring force is already deducted. Single-acting push only; the spring performs the opposite stroke. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×30 | Stroke length in mm (single-acting max 30 mm). |
| S | Built-in magnet for magnetic-switch sensing (omit = none). |
| B | Male-thread piston rod (omit = female thread). |
Thread: PT standard. SSA pushes out / spring returns; STA pulls in / spring extends. Related: SDA (double acting), SDAD (double rod), SDAJ (adjustable stroke).
Uses the 346.6 N net push to eject molded components from heated zones, leveraging the FKM seal for thermal stability.
Secures workpieces in machining cells flooded with coolant, where the fluororubber seal prevents premature degradation.
Fits into densely packed assembly stations using its 30 mm stroke and compact riveted body to press pins into panels.
Sizing this model requires comparing adjacent bores at 0.5 MPa. Dropping down to the SSA25 yields 216.9 N, whereas stepping up to the SSA40 provides 545.6 N, making the 346.6 N of this 32 mm bore a solid middle ground. The safe working load is roughly 208 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), allowing a vertical lift of approximately 17.7 kg with a 2:1 margin.
Confirm the 32 mm bore, 30 mm stroke (the maximum standard length for this series), PT1/8 port, and the Ø12 mm rod. The H designation indicates the FKM seal, and no magnet is present. Remember that on air loss the spring drives the rod to its retracted rest position, so it cannot hold a mid-stroke load without external devices.
Quick checklist
The net push force is 346.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 507.5 N at 0.7 MPa. These values already account for the internal return spring being subtracted, giving you the true design output.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option and cannot accept reed or electronic switches. You would need to select the -S variant to enable position sensing.
