The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X425S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 425mm 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 for 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 -S suffix adds a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. It uses a G1/2 port, an M27x2.0 rod thread, and a 40 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends. Standard TPU seals handle temperatures from -20 to +70 C, with Viton H available for 0-150 C 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.
Uses the 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa to eject formed metal parts from a hydraulic press bed safely.
Deploys the 425 mm stroke to square heavy wooden pallets against a rigid stop before automated banding.
Swings a heavy gate on a packaging line to divert bulk materials into secondary processing chutes.
As the smallest bore in the SGC family, the 125 mm size provides a baseline 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application needs less force, you must step outside the SGC series, but stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N for heavier demands. Because this 425 mm stroke is relatively long, ensure your guiding structure prevents rod bending and side loads.
The built-in magnet matches CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for end-position confirmation. Remember that standard air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not lock the rod. If air pressure drops, the load will drift, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure holding.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 port and generates 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, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, dropping into the same large-bore fixtures. The tie-rod construction adds rigidity, and the -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
