The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X400TC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 400mm 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 ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for large-bore automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, providing high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The 125 mm bore uses a G1/2 port, a Ø32 mm hard-chrome rod, and M27x2.0 rod threads. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. The TC trunnion mounting interface makes it dimensionally interchangeable with standard ISO 15552 large-bore fixtures, and the adjustable 40 mm air cushions at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact.

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 robust 6136 N push stroke needed to eject formed metal parts from heavy stamping presses.
Uses the TC trunnion mount to pivot and divert heavy logistics pallets along high-throughput packaging lines.
Raises and lowers loaded warehouse lift gates, safely moving components weighing up to 313 kg vertically.
When sizing this 400 mm stroke model, verify if the next bore down or up fits your space: there is no smaller SGC bore, while the 160 mm bore raises push force to 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. At 400 mm of travel, guide the load externally to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. The TC trunnion mount suits pivoting loads, but remember a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a suspended load. To use magnetic sensors, you must switch to the -S variant, as this base SKU has no magnet.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 port and delivers 6136 N push / 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push / 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the tie-rod build and TC trunnion interface are dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting standard. However, because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches without upgrading to the magnet-equipped variant.
