SMC NCDGCA20-1300 Pneumatic Cylinder

SMC NCDGCA20-1300 is a round-body, single-rod, double-acting pneumatic cylinder with a 20 mm bore and a 13-inch stroke, designed for compact linear actuation in automation and manufacturing environments. It uses 10-32 port connections for air supply, enabling compact plumbing in tight installations and straightforward integration with small-diameter fittings. As part of SMC’s NCDG family, this cylinder is built for reliable high-speed cycling and repeatable motion, making it suitable for automation tasks such as pick-and-place, fixture actuation, and small-component handling in assembly lines. The 13-inch stroke provides substantial travel within a slim 20 mm bore, allowing longer displacement without increasing the cylinder’s external footprint, which helps conserve space in control panels and machine enclosures. The round-body design supports straightforward alignment and mounting in constrained layouts, while the single-rod configuration helps minimize side loads and improve piston guidance. This model aligns with typical factory pneumatic systems, and its compact dimensions pair well with a broad range of mounting accessories and end stops to tailor stroke and mounting for specific applications in packaging, small-scale automation, and precision positioning tasks where space is at a premium.
