Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 160mm 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.

About the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC
Generating 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles heavy-duty positioning with a 160 mm stroke. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. The G1/2 port and M27x2.0 rod thread accommodate robust pneumatic plumbing.
Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures. Plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC Is Used
Press Die Ejection
Provides 6136 N of push at 0.5 MPa to eject heavy stamped parts from a 160 mm deep press die.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Uses the TC trunnion mount to pivot a heavy-duty stop gate on a high-speed packaging conveyor.
Injection Mold Clamping
Secures large mold halves with 8590 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa before the high-pressure injection cycle begins.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC the Right Cylinder?
This 125 mm bore sits at the entry point of the SGC large-frame range, offering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N if your fixture needs more authority. The included TC trunnion mount suits pivoting articulations, and you can pair it with LB foot, FA flange, or CA clevis accessories via the standard ISO 15552 interface.
Remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is removed or the valve centers, as the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke ends rather than locking the load. For suspended masses, integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Long-stroke side load — support the rod end
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load; support long strokes at the rod end.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X160TC FAQ
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 air port. It 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.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet. You must select the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. The four steel tie rods provide rigid mounting via the ISO 15552 interface.
