About the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X1300
The AirTAC SC50X1300 is a double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). Its 20 mm diameter piston rod and 21 mm adjustable air cushion provide reliable deceleration for mid-range automation tasks.
With a 1300 mm stroke, this model exceeds the standard 1200 mm maximum for 50 mm bore SC cylinders, making it a made-to-order configuration. The PT1/4 port and M16x1.5 rod thread integrate easily into existing pneumatic circuits, while the TPU seals offer a standard -20 to +70 °C operating range.

Where the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X1300 Is Used
Long-Reach Part Transfer
Moves components across wide gaps on packaging or assembly lines where a 1300 mm stroke is essential for spanning conveyor sections.
Vertical Door Actuation
Operates tall industrial doors or hopper gates, using the adjustable cushion to soften the impact at the end of the long vertical travel.
Extended Pusher Station
Pushes products off a wide belt into a sorting chute, leveraging the 50 mm bore's force class for consistent, linear motion.
Is the Airtac SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X1300 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SC50 bore when your application needs around 982 N of force at 0.5 MPa; step up to the SC63 for 1559 N or down to the SC40 for 628 N. For this 1300 mm stroke, side-load management is critical—the extended 20 mm rod is vulnerable to bending under off-axis forces. Use an external guide rail or rod-alignment coupler to protect the rod bearing and ensure smooth operation. When replacing, match bore, stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mount, and the absence of a magnet sensor.
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 SC50 Standard Cylinder SC50X1300 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 982 N. At 0.7 MPa it increases to 1374 N, and the theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf. Pull force at 0.5 MPa is 825 N due to the rod area.
No, the maximum standard stroke for a 50 mm bore SC cylinder is 1200 mm. A 1300 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order configuration. Ensure your application accounts for the extended body length of approximately 150 mm plus the 1300 mm stroke.
