The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X1150STC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1150mm 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 large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles long 1150 mm strokes. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for extended lifespan. The included piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing.
With a 125 mm bore, the unit uses a G1/2 air port and a 32 mm rod with an M27x2.0 thread. For practical sizing, plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The adjustable 40 mm air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston smoothly, and the default TPU seals handle temperatures from -20 to +70 C.

Pushes finished parts out of a 1-meter deep hydraulic press bed, utilizing the 1150 mm stroke to clear the tooling entirely before the conveyor engages.
Extends 1150 mm to shuttle heavy pallets from a multi-level storage rack, relying on the 6136 N push force to overcome guide friction.
Crushes industrial packaging scrap in a horizontal baler, using the full stroke to compress material against the end plate before baling.
This 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less force is needed there is no smaller SGC bore, but stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. The TC trunnion mount suits pivoting loads, and the -S magnet allows sensor integration. Because the stroke is 1150 mm, external guide rails are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and excessive side loading. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost—the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you must hold a suspended load.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 6136 N push and 5734 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 8590 N push and 8028 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is G1/2.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing standard TC trunnion, foot, flange and clevis accessories. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches to be fitted for position detection.
