Norgren RM/960/G/1300 Pneumatic Cylinder - 1300 mm Stroke
Part Number: RM/960/G/1300
Quick Summary
Norgren RM/960/G/1300 is a high-performance pneumatic cylinder delivering precise linear actuation for heavy-duty material handling and automation. In demanding lines, achieving consistent force and smooth deceleration across a 1300 mm stroke can be challenging. For safety and reliability, buyers typically look for CE conformity, robust protection ratings, and compatibility with SIL control interfaces to meet industry standards. The RM/960/G/1300 sits within the RM/900 range of the Martonair family, features adjustable cushioning, a corrosion-resistant anodised aluminium barrel, and a martensitic stainless piston rod, delivering long service life and predictable performance for OEMs and integrators.

Large-bore design delivers substantial force across a long travel. The RM/960/G/1300 produces up to 10887 N of theoretical force at nominal pressure, enabling fast, reliable actuation in heavy-duty pick-and-place or stamping applications. This long-stroke cylinder is well-suited to packaging lines and die-set tooling where consistent motion is critical. Double-acting with adjustable cushioning provides precise control of acceleration and deceleration. The adjustable cushioning reduces end-of-stroke shock, extending fixture life and minimizing vibration in CNC and forming operations. Rugged materials enhance durability and compatibility with outdoor and dirty environments. An anodised aluminium barrel paired with a martensitic stainless rod offers corrosion resistance and long service life, while the non-magnetic construction minimizes magnetic interference with nearby sensors and measurement devices. Mounting flexibility and porting options ease integration into diverse OEM layouts. A G1/2 port and the extensive RM/900/Martonair ecosystem simplify procurement and retrofit work. Reliability and serviceability are emphasized with available service kits QM/960/00, designed to support RM/900 style cylinders and reduce maintenance downtime.

FAQs
The RM/960/G/1300 supports a wide range of mechanical mountings and is designed to integrate with standard RM/900/Martonair configurations. Verify mounting pattern compatibility for your fixture, ensure correct alignment of the piston rod with the load, and use appropriate hardware to secure the cylinder. The 6 inch bore and 1300 mm stroke work best when end-of-travel cushions are tuned using the adjustable cushioning to prevent impact damage and preserve fixture life.
At 2 to 10 bar, the cylinder provides substantial actuation force with a theoretical maximum around 10887 N, enabling robust long-stroke movement. The adjustable cushioning helps manage acceleration and deceleration, improving cycle timing and reducing vibration. For maximum efficiency, pair with compatible control valves and ensure ports are clean and leak-free to maintain consistent performance.
Yes. The 6 inch bore with a 1300 mm stroke is well suited for stamping, transfer, and load-positioning tasks where high force and precise travel are required. The adjustable cushioning minimizes impact at the end of stroke, protecting tooling and fixtures, while non-magnetic construction reduces interference with nearby sensors in automated lines.
Check the supplier documentation for local regulatory compliance such as CE conformity and any region-specific safety certifications. Also verify environmental suitability, including operating temperature range (-20 to 80 C) and pressure limits (2–10 bar). If your system requires SIL compatibility or IP protection levels, confirm these with the vendor or through a formal declaration to ensure alignment with your safety and environmental standards.
The RM/960/G/1300 uses corrosion-resistant materials and a robust construction to reduce wear and downtime. Service kits for RM/900-based cylinders (QM/960/00) simplify maintenance and parts replacement, lowering total cost of ownership. In practice, the combination of long stroke, adjustable cushioning, and durable materials translates to longer service intervals, improved uptime, and predictable performance in demanding automation environments.
