SC32×300 Standard Pneumatic Air Cylinder – 32mm Bore × 300mm Stroke – Double Acting
The SC32×300 Standard Pneumatic Air Cylinder is a heavy-duty double-acting pneumatic actuator designed for industrial automation, conveyor systems, packaging equipment, machinery and general pneumatic applications.
With a 32 mm bore and 300 mm stroke, this cylinder provides a long linear travel while maintaining the strong and reliable SC-series tie-rod construction. Compressed air is used to positively extend and retract the piston rod, making it suitable for controlled pushing, pulling, positioning and automation tasks.
The aluminium cylinder barrel, robust end caps and external tie rods provide a durable design suitable for regular industrial operation.

Double-Acting Operation
The SC32×300 is a double-acting cylinder, meaning compressed air controls movement in both directions.
When compressed air is supplied to one port, the piston rod extends. Supplying air to the opposite port causes the piston rod to retract. A suitable pneumatic directional control valve is normally used to control the cylinder.
Installation Recommendations
For reliable operation:
- Use clean and filtered compressed air.
- Install suitable pneumatic fittings and tubing.
- Flow-control valves can be used to regulate cylinder speed.
- Ensure the cylinder is correctly aligned with the load.
- Avoid excessive side loading on the piston rod.
- Select mounting brackets suitable for the application.
- Check that the operating pressure is suitable for the required load.
