The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X125TC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 125mm 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 is built for rigorous automation. 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. The G1/2 port and M27x2.0 rod thread handle the demanding air flow required for the 125 mm bore.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. 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 standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface means it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures, and the included TC trunnion mount simplifies pivoting load integration.

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 bearings into heavy housings on an automotive line, utilizing the 6136 N push force to seat components reliably.
Actuates a heavy-duty diverter arm on a packaging conveyor, pivoting smoothly via the TC trunnion mount to redirect large pallets.
Raises and lowers a loaded transfer gate in a distribution hub, handling the 313 kg vertical lift capacity with a safe 2:1 margin.
When sizing this 125 mm bore unit, verify if the 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa provides adequate thrust; if your application requires less force, stepping down requires leaving the SGC family, while stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. This model uses a TC trunnion setup, so ensure your frame supports the pivot loads. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered—the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if the load must be held. At 125 mm stroke, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide the rod end to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 air port and delivers 6136 N push / 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push / 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing.
