The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X1250 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1250mm 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 large-bore automation with a 1250 mm stroke. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. A G1/2 port supplies the 32 mm chrome-plated rod.
Because this SKU lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. Plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The TPU seal handles -20 to +70 C, with a Viton H option for 0-150 C environments.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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.
Pushes heavy pallets along a 1250 mm conveyor lane using 6136 N of 0.5 MPa thrust, relying on external guides to absorb side loads.
Actuates a long diverting gate in distribution centers, where the 1250 mm stroke moves parcels between sorting lanes.
Indexes sheet materials along a 1.25-meter path, using the 40 mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the payload smoothly.
This 125 mm bore sits at the lower end of the SGC range; stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N at 0.5 MPa if your application needs more thrust. The 1250 mm stroke demands external guide support to prevent rod bending under side loads. Without a -S magnet, position sensing is unavailable. Note that exhausting the air causes the piston to drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for vertical load holding.
Quick checklist
The G1/2 port feeds a 32 mm rod. It generates 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.
No, this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet. You must order the -S variant to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures it drops into standard large-bore fixtures.
