About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1750TC
The AirTAC SC160X1750TC is a large-bore, double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 18095 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa. With a 40 mm diameter piston rod and a 1750 mm stroke, this model is engineered for heavy industrial linear motion tasks that require an extended reach beyond the standard 1500 mm maximum, making it a non-standard, made-to-order configuration.
This cylinder features a centre trunnion (TC) mount, supplied with the TCM1 bracket (part code F-SC160TC), allowing the assembly to pivot and absorb misalignment in swinging load applications. It includes PT3/4 port threads, a 29 mm adjustable air cushion to decelerate the piston smoothly, and operates on filtered air within a -20 to +70 °C temperature range using standard TPU seals.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1750TC Is Used
Heavy Pallet Lifting
Provides the high force and long stroke needed for lifting and positioning heavy pallets or large containers on warehouse lift stations.
Industrial Press Feed
Feeds heavy steel plates or large components into stamping presses, where the trunnion mount allows the cylinder to follow the material path.
Log Splitter Ram
Acts as the main ram in a large hydraulic-style log splitter conversion, using the 18095 N force to split tough hardwoods efficiently.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1750TC the Right Cylinder?
Select the SC160 when your application demands a force output in the 10000 N class at 0.5 MPa. If a lower force is sufficient, stepping down to the SC125 bore reduces the push force to 6136 N at the same pressure, potentially lowering air consumption and cost. For any stroke over 300 mm, and critically for this 1750 mm stroke, side loads must be managed with external linear guides or a guided cylinder to protect the 40 mm rod from bending and premature seal wear.
For a direct replacement, match five key specifications: the 160 mm bore, the exact 1750 mm stroke, the PT3/4 port thread, the centre trunnion (TC) mounting accessory, and the absence of a magnet on the barrel. This ensures dimensional and functional interchangeability with an existing AirTAC SC160 setup.
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 AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1750TC FAQ
At 0.7 MPa (7 bar), the theoretical push force is 14074 N. The pull force on the retract stroke is slightly lower due to the rod area, delivering 9425 N at 0.5 MPa.
No, a 1750 mm stroke with a 40 mm rod is highly susceptible to bending and buckling under side loads. An external guide rail or a guided cylinder is required to ensure the rod's linear path and prevent damage to the piston rod and seals.
