The AirTAC SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1300STC is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 1300mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The SC40X1300STC is a double-acting AirTAC SC series tie-rod cylinder with a 40 mm bore and an extended 1300 mm stroke. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1130 N at 0.9 MPa), this model is built for long linear movements in compact machinery. The 16 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion ensure smooth end-of-stroke deceleration.
This specific configuration includes a built-in magnet (-S) for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, and is supplied with a centre trunnion mount (TC) and TCM1 bracket for pivoting applications. As a non-standard stroke exceeding the 1200 mm maximum, this is a made-to-order unit. The port thread is PT1/4.

The 1300 mm stroke moves parts across wide gaps in packaging or assembly lines, with sensor feedback from the built-in magnet confirming end-of-stroke position.
Provides a steady, long linear pass for adhesive or sealant heads. The trunnion mount allows the cylinder body to pivot, following the dispensing path.
Operates large ventilation dampers or hopper gates in agricultural processing, where the 1130 N maximum thrust overcomes sticky or heavy sliding panels.
Choose the SC40 when its 628 N force at 0.5 MPa fits your load; for higher thrust, step up to the SC50 bore providing 982 N. For strokes of 1300 mm, side-load management is critical—never expose the unsupported rod to radial forces. Use an external linear guide or a guided cylinder to protect the rod bearing from bending moments. For direct replacement, match bore (40), stroke (1300), PT port thread, centre trunnion mount (F-SC40TC), and the built-in magnet (-S) to another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder.
Quick checklist
At the standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the push force is 628 N and the pull force is 528 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 1130 N.
No, the maximum standard stroke for a 40 mm bore SC cylinder is 1200 mm. A 1300 mm stroke is non-standard and requires a made-to-order configuration. Ensure your application supports the long, fully extended rod with an external guide to prevent bending.
