About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1915S
The SC160X1915S is a large-bore, double-acting tie-rod cylinder engineered for very long linear movements. With a 160 mm bore and a non-standard 1915 mm stroke, it generates a powerful push force of 10053 N at 0.5 MPa and up to 18095 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, driven by a robust 40 mm diameter piston rod.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors along the barrel for precise, non-contact position feedback. The adjustable air cushion at each end decelerates the large mass smoothly, with a cushion length of 29 mm. Its PT3/4 port and M36x2 rod thread handle high flow rates for consistent cycling.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1915S Is Used
Long-Stroke Material Pusher
Pushes heavy pallets or large components across a wide conveyor or staging area, utilizing the full 1915 mm reach and 10053 N of force at standard shop air.
Automated Gantry Transfer
Acts as the main axis on a heavy-duty gantry, transferring large weldments or assemblies between distant stations with magnet sensor-confirmed end-of-stroke positions.
Large-Scale Damper Actuation
Operates a massive louver or damper door in industrial air handling or processing systems, where the built-in magnet provides open/closed confirmation to the central controller.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X1915S the Right Cylinder?
For applications needing this 160 mm bore's force class, stepping down to a 125 mm bore reduces push force to 6136 N at 0.5 MPa, while the next size up is the 200 mm bore at 15708 N. The 1915 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length exceeding the 1500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, requiring a special production lead time.
At this extreme stroke, the long, 40 mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. External linear guides or a self-guided rod assembly are essential to prevent rod bearing damage and ensure reliable operation. For a direct replacement, match the 160 mm bore, 1915 mm stroke, PT3/4 port thread, and the integrated magnet sensor feature.
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 SC160X1915S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the theoretical push force is 14074 N. The pull force on the retract stroke is 9425 N at 0.5 MPa, due to the area reduction from the 40 mm piston rod.
No. The maximum standard stroke for a 160 mm bore SC cylinder is 1500 mm. The 1915 mm stroke on this SC160X1915S is a non-standard, made-to-order length, which requires a longer lead time. It is not an ISO 15552 cylinder, so it is only dimensionally interchangeable with another AirTAC SC tie-rod cylinder of the same exact configuration.
