The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC125X850SH is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 850mm 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 handles large-bore automation tasks. The SGC125X850SH features a 125 mm bore, an 850 mm stroke, and a G1/2 air port. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because this SKU includes the -S option, a built-in piston magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
The -H designation equips this unit with Viton (FKM) seals, extending the operating temperature range from -20 to +70 C up to a sustained 0-150 C for high-heat environments. For practical sizing, 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 850 mm stroke demands careful alignment to prevent rod bending, making external guide rails essential to absorb side loads.

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 force at 0.5 MPa to eject heavy automotive interior panels from hot molds, relying on the Viton -H seal to withstand 150 C ambient radiant heat.
Extends the full 850 mm stroke to push heavy freight pallets across transfer lines, requiring external guide rails to prevent rod bending during lateral diversion.
Raises 313 kg material loads vertically in high-temperature logistics zones, using the -S magnet and DMSG sensors to confirm top and bottom positions.
When sizing this 125 mm bore unit, verify if the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa provides adequate thrust, as stepping up to the 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. If your application requires less force, note that 125 mm is the smallest available SGC option. The integrated -S magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without further modification. With an 850 mm stroke, you must use external guide rails to support the rod and prevent excessive bending under load. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the adjustable 40 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of stroke. To hold a load safely mid-stroke, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The 125 mm bore provides 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. The air port size is G1/2, the rod diameter is 32 mm, and the speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
No, the double-acting piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centered. The 40 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not function as a locking brake. To maintain a vertical position safely, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
