The AirTAC Airtac SC40 Standard Cylinder SC40X1310 is a genuine double-acting standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 1310mm stroke, PT1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. It is used for push, pull, lift and clamp motion in industrial automation.
The AirTAC SC40X1310 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 1130 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 40 mm bore and a 16 mm diameter piston rod, this model is built for linear applications requiring an extended 1310 mm stroke, which exceeds the standard 1200 mm maximum for this bore size, making it a non-standard, made-to-order configuration.
This cylinder features a compact body length A of 142 mm and an adjustable pneumatic cushion of 21 mm at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The rod is equipped with an M12x1.25 male thread and the ports are PT1/4, ensuring compatibility with common pneumatic fittings. As a genuine AirTAC component, it operates reliably with filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa.

Pushes or pulls components across a wide conveyor gap where a 1310 mm stroke is essential for full part traversal without a stop in between.
Operates a long-travel clamp on a woodworking or assembly jig, applying 628 N at 0.5 MPa to secure large panels during gluing or fastening.
Opens and closes a large air-handling damper in an agricultural building, using the full 1310 mm stroke to move the louvered door through its complete arc.
When selecting the SC40X1310, verify that the 1310 mm stroke and the 16 mm rod are suitable for your load. For side loads or this very long stroke, an external guide or a guided cylinder is strongly recommended to protect the rod bearing from bending moments. If 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, stepping up to the SC50 bore provides 982 N, while the SC32 bore offers 402 N for a lighter, more compact option.
To ensure a correct replacement, match five key points: the 40 mm bore, the 1310 mm stroke, the PT1/4 port thread, the basic mounting configuration (no accessory brackets), and the absence of a built-in magnet. This model uses the default TPU seals and PT threads, so direct interchangeability is limited to cylinders sharing these exact specifications.
Quick checklist
At 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. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 128 kgf.
No, the maximum standard stroke for the 40 mm bore is 1200 mm. The 1310 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length. For such a long stroke, using an external guide rail is critical to prevent rod deflection and uneven seal wear.
