About the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1300
The AirTAC SC32X1300 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder with a 32 mm bore and an extended 1300 mm stroke, built for applications requiring long linear travel from a compact body. At 0.5 MPa operating pressure it delivers 402 N pushing force, and at the maximum 0.9 MPa the thrust reaches 724 N, driven by a 12 mm diameter piston rod with M10x1.25 rod thread.
This model exceeds the standard maximum stroke of 1000 mm for the 32 mm bore, making it a non-standard, made-to-order configuration. The cylinder body length A is 140 mm, giving a total extended length of approximately 1440 mm. Adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends (21 mm cushion length) decelerates the piston to reduce end-of-stroke impact, and the standard PT1/8 port thread connects to common pneumatic fittings.

Where the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1300 Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
The 1300 mm stroke moves lightweight components between distant conveyor stations or assembly nests where a compact tie-rod body fits into narrow machine frames.
Automated Sorting Gate
Operates a long-travel diverter gate or flap in material handling lines. The adjustable cushioning softens the stop at each end, protecting the gate mechanism from shock.
Stretch-Wrapper Film Carriage
Drives the vertical film carriage in a pallet stretch-wrapping machine. The 32 mm bore provides enough force to lift a light film roll while the long stroke covers full pallet height.
Is the Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1300 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC32 bore for light-duty positioning and clamping where the 402 N push at 0.5 MPa is sufficient. If your load requires more force, step up to the SC40 bore, which provides 628 N at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For a 1300 mm stroke, side-load management is critical: the 12 mm rod is slender over this length and can bend under lateral force. Always guide the load externally with a linear rail or rod guide, or consider a guided cylinder if the application cannot tolerate misalignment.
To replace an existing cylinder, match five points exactly: 32 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic (no bracket) mounting, and no magnet. This SC32X1300 is a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder and is dimensionally shorter than an ISO 15552 profile, so it is not a drop-in replacement for ISO 15552 cylinders.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for 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 (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1300 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf (804 N). Always apply a safety factor for real-world dynamic loads.
Not recommended. The 12 mm diameter rod is slender over a 1300 mm stroke and is susceptible to bending and buckling under side loads or misalignment. Always support the load with an external linear guide or rod bearing to prevent premature seal wear and rod damage.
