The AirTAC SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X210 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 210mm 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 cylinder handles heavy automation tasks with a 210 mm stroke. It uses a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface, dropping smoothly into existing large-bore fixtures and matching standard accessories. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. The bore accepts a G1/2 port and an M27x2.0 rod thread.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. The standard TPU elastomer seals support operating temperatures from -20 to +70 C, with Viton H available for 0-150 C high-heat environments.

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.
Provides the 6136 N push force needed to eject heavy stamped metal parts from a press bed over a 210 mm travel distance.
Acts as a robust pneumatic stop gate in high-throughput conveyor lines, absorbing heavy pallet impacts using its adjustable 40 mm air cushions.
Secures injection moulding tooling halves with reliable double-acting thrust, utilising the rigid four tie-rod construction to resist deflection.
When sizing this 125 mm bore, verify if the 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa is sufficient; if you need more power, stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. If your application is lighter, there is no smaller SGC bore, so you would need to look outside the series. For position feedback, note this non-magnetic version cannot host sensors, so selecting an -S variant is required if you need CMSG or DMSG switches. Since the 210 mm stroke is relatively moderate, side-load risks are lower, but always ensure rigid mounting using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets to prevent rod bending. Remember that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of travel; they do not act as a brake, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to hold a load vertically if air pressure is lost.
Quick checklist
The SGC125X210 delivers a push force of 6136 N and a pull force of 5734 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 8590 N and pull is 8028 N. The theoretical maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a G1/2 air port and an M27x2.0 rod thread.
This specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you must select an -S variant for sensing. Mechanically, it uses a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface, making it dimensionally interchangeable with standard large-bore ISO 15552 fixtures and accessories.
