The AirTAC Airtac SC32 Standard Cylinder SC32X1300S is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 1300mm stroke, PT1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC32X1300S is a double-acting single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 32 mm bore and an extended 1300 mm non-standard stroke. This model delivers a theoretical push force of 402 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for long-reach actuation tasks.
It features a 12 mm diameter piston rod with an M10x1.25 rod thread and PT1/8 port connections. The built-in magnet (-S suffix) allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke position detection. The adjustable pneumatic cushion at each end is 21 mm long, designed to decelerate the piston smoothly.

Moves components across wide gaps in packaging or assembly lines. The 1300 mm stroke and sensor-ready magnet enable precise, monitored positioning over extended distances.
Operates diverter gates on long conveyors. The adjustable cushion reduces end-of-stroke impact, protecting the gate mechanism during high-cycle sorting operations.
Ideal for pushing or pulling mechanisms in hard-to-reach machine areas where a compact body with a long stroke is required. The tie-rod design allows for robust, extended-reach mounting.
This 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires more force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore model (SC40) increases push force to 628 N at the same pressure. For strokes of 300 mm or more, like this 1300 mm unit, carefully evaluate side loads. A long, unsupported 12 mm rod is susceptible to bending under lateral force; always use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearings and seals.
When replacing this cylinder, match five key points: 32 mm bore, 1300 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, the built-in magnet for sensors, and the basic (no bracket) mounting configuration. This is a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 profile unit, so dimensional interchangeability is limited to another AirTAC SC32 of the same stroke.
Quick checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 402 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the force increases to 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
A stroke of 1300 mm on a 32 mm bore cylinder requires careful side-load management. The rod is not designed to support lateral forces. You must mount the load on an external linear guide rail and use a floating rod coupler to ensure the cylinder only sees axial force, preventing rod bending and premature seal failure.
