The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X10 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 10mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its large-bore tie-rod build delivers high thrust and drops into standardized ISO 15552 mounting on heavy automation.
Delivering 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for heavy-duty short-stroke automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because the actual stroke is just 10 mm, plan for about 3682 N of real work, which lifts roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
This double-acting single-rod actuator uses a G1/2 port and a 32 mm carbon steel rod with a 20 um hard chrome plating. It operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s across a 0.15-1.0 MPa pressure range. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches; order the -S variant if position sensing is required.

SGC-family variants: SGC (double acting), SGCD (double rod), SGCJ (adjustable stroke). Mounting: LB / FA / FB / CA / CB / CR / TC / FTC / TCM1 / TCM2. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides high 6136 N clamping force in a compact 10 mm stroke for securing thick steel plates during heavy stamping operations.
Acts as a short-travel locking pin on large injection moulding machines where massive immediate force is needed within a tiny footprint.
Drives a short 10 mm riveting pin in automated assembly lines, utilising the 8590 N push force available at 0.7 MPa for rapid part deformation.
As the smallest bore in the SGC family, the 125 mm tier offers 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, with the next size up being the 160 mm bore delivering 10053 N. For a 10 mm stroke, side-load bending risks are negligible, but because a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred, you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a suspended load. The adjustable 40 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not function as a brake. Choose standard TPU seals for normal -20 to +70 C environments, or specify the Viton H option for 0-150 C high-temperature duties.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 port and delivers a push force of 6136 N and a pull force of 5734 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 8590 N and the pull force is 8028 N. The theoretical maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Mechanically, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, meaning it drops directly into standard large-bore ISO 15552 fixtures and accessories without custom brackets.
