The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X300S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 300mm 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 actuator is built around a genuine ISO 15552 tie-rod format. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the front and rear covers, providing high structural rigidity while the heterogeneous two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because it uses the standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures and shares common accessory dimensions.
With a 300 mm stroke and a built-in piston magnet (the -S suffix), this unit supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG electronic or reed switches for position sensing. Plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The G1/2 air port and M27x2.0 rod thread match the 125 mm bore standard, and the TPU seal handles temperatures from -20 to +70 C.

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 wooden pallets sideways onto secondary packaging lines using its 6136 N thrust and 300 mm travel.
Actuates a 300 mm lifting gate in distribution hubs, safely moving loads approaching the 313 kg vertical limit.
Ejects formed metal parts from hydraulic presses, relying on the CMSG sensors to confirm full retraction.
When sizing this 125 mm bore actuator, compare your actual load against its 6136 N push and 5734 pull ratings at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, moving down is not an option within the SGC range as this is the smallest available bore; if you need substantially more thrust, the 160 mm bore offers 10053 N at the same pressure. For this 300 mm stroke, ensure your mounting arrangement—whether LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion—prevents excessive side loading on the M27x2.0 rod to avoid premature seal wear.
Note that a standard double-acting cylinder does not hold its position if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the piston will drift. The adjustable 40 mm air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not function as a locking brake. If your machine requires absolute load holding on the 300 mm stroke, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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. Its theoretical maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S designation means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. It also follows the ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing it to use standard LB, FA, CA, and TC foot, flange, clevis, and trunnion accessories.
