The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X100S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 100mm stroke, G3/4 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 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore double-acting actuator is built around a rigid tie-rod design where four steel rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers. The standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface means it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures, and its two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Equipped with a G3/4 port and an M36x2.0 rod thread, it integrates smoothly into heavy pneumatic setups.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches for closed-loop control. For practical sizing, plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. You can also specify Viton H seals if your environment demands 0-150 C high-temperature operation.

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 coil stock into a mechanical press, utilizing the 10053 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to overcome material friction and guide resistance.
Separates empty pallets from a magazine stack, relying on the 100 mm stroke and 9425 N pull force to retract the heavy carriage reliably.
Drives a large mold ejection plate, using the -S magnet and EMSG sensors to confirm part release before the press opens.
When sizing this 160 mm bore, verify if the 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa offers enough headroom, or step up to the 200 mm bore (15708 N push) for heavier demands; stepping down to the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N. This 100 mm stroke operates well within the 30-500 mm/s speed range, but remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve centers, as the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends rather than locking it. For suspended loads, specify an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The included -S magnet pairs directly with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, and mounting options span LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion styles.
Quick checklist
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and delivers 10053 N push / 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push / 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, so standard large-bore accessories fit perfectly. The included -S piston magnet allows you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches directly to the barrel.
