The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X275H is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 275mm 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 brings genuine ISO 15552 mounting-interface interchangeability to high-temperature automation. The -H designation specifies a Viton (FKM) seal, extending the operating range from -20 up to 150 C for foundry or oven-adjacent machinery. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life.
With a 275 mm stroke and a G1/2 port, the unit provides 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. For practical sizing, plan for about 3682 N of real work at that pressure, which equates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, meaning it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches without changing the variant.

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.
Uses the 8590 N push force at 0.7 MPa and Viton high-temperature seals to hold hot mold halves securely in metal casting lines.
Leverages the 275 mm stroke to open and close industrial curing oven doors where ambient heat would destroy standard TPU seals.
Pushes misaligned pallets off a high-speed conveyor, safely handling components weighing up to the 313 kg vertical-lift equivalent.
When sizing this 125 mm bore against the broader SGC range, stepping down is not an option as it is the smallest available size in the series. Stepping up to the 160 mm bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force significantly to 10053 N if your application demands more authority. Because this 275 mm stroke falls below the 500 mm threshold, rod-bending side loads are less critical, but always guide the load to prevent binding. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve is centered; the adjustable 40 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps. To suspend a load safely mid-stroke, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 air port and generates 6136 N push / 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 8590 N push / 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need to select the -S variant for magnetic position sensing.
