The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X100 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 100mm 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 double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles heavy automation tasks with ease. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures.
Featuring a 125 mm bore, a 32 mm hard-chrome rod, and a G1/2 port, the SGC125X100 operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s. For practical sizing, plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

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.
Drives heavy bearings into automotive housings, utilizing the 6136 N push force to seat components precisely without hydraulic fluid.
Acts as a heavy-duty end stop on high-speed packaging conveyors, absorbing kinetic impact using the 40 mm adjustable air cushion.
Provides auxiliary holding pressure on large mold halves, taking advantage of the rigid four tie-rod construction under load.
When sizing this 125 mm bore model, verify if the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa offers adequate headroom for your fixture. If your application demands less power, stepping down to a smaller bore might be necessary, as the SGC series starts at 125 mm. Conversely, if you need substantially more thrust, the 160 mm bore provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm stroke keeps the rod compact, minimizing side-load bending concerns.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered, as the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end rather than locking it. To suspend a load safely, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Furthermore, since this base configuration has no magnet, you must select an -S variant if your control system requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic sensors.
Quick checklist
The SGC125X100 delivers 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push and 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G1/2 air port and features a 32 mm piston rod with an M27x2.0 thread.
Yes, the tie-rod build is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, accepting standard LB, FA, CA, and TC mounts. However, because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you must specify an -S model for sensing.
