About the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X750S
The SC160X750S is a large-bore double-acting tie-rod cylinder delivering a substantial push force of 10053 N 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 750 mm stroke, this model is built for heavy linear actuation tasks where magnetic piston sensing is required.
This genuine AirTAC cylinder features a 29 mm adjustable air cushion at each end to decelerate high-inertia loads smoothly. The built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors on the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke or mid-position detection without external brackets.

Where the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X750S Is Used
Heavy Material Handling
Operates large transfer shuttles or lift tables in distribution centers, using the magnetic piston to confirm position in automated conveyor loops.
Press & Clamping
Provides the high clamping force for large assembly or forming presses, with sensor feedback ensuring the tool has fully engaged before the next cycle starts.
Dam & Gate Actuation
Drives sluice gates or large diverter valves in water treatment plants, where the magnet confirms open/closed status in submerged or remote installations.
Is the Airtac AIRTAC SC125-160 Standard Cylinder SC160X750S the Right Cylinder?
For applications requiring slightly less force, the SC125 bore offers 6136 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands more, the SC200 bore provides 15708 N. At a 750 mm stroke, ensure side loads are managed; an unsupported 40 mm rod extending this far can be susceptible to bending. Use external guides or a guided cylinder for off-axis loads. To replace this unit, match the 160 mm bore, 750 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mount, and the -S magnet option exactly.
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 SC160X750S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the pushing force is 14074 N and the pulling force is 13195 N. The maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 2050 kgf.
Yes, the -S suffix denotes a built-in magnet specifically designed to actuate AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensors clamped directly to the tie-rod barrel.
