The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X1100S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1100mm 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 double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is engineered for heavy-duty automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, providing the structural rigidity needed to handle large-bore thrust without flexing. The two-way piston seal incorporates an oil reservoir for continuous lubrication, extending operational life across the 1100 mm stroke.
Equipped with a built-in piston magnet (-S), the unit directly supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG reed or electronic switches for position sensing. Plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The G3/4 air port and M36x2.0 rod thread handle high flow rates, while the standard TPU seals perform reliably from -20 to +70 C.

Pushes heavy stamping blanks into hydraulic presses, utilizing the 10053 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to move large steel sheets reliably over the 1100 mm travel distance.
Extracts empty pallets from high-bay storage magazines, where the 512 kg vertical lift capacity and long stroke handle deep stack retrieval efficiently.
Drives heavy core pulls on large injection molding machines, relying on the rigid four-tie-rod construction to maintain alignment under high dynamic loads.
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare your actual load against the 10053 N push and 9425 N pull ratings at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, the smaller 125 mm bore offers 6136 N; if you need substantially more thrust, stepping up to the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. Because this model features an 1100 mm stroke, supporting the rod end with an external guide is critical to prevent side-load bending and premature seal wear over such a long extension distance.
The integrated magnet allows seamless mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Remember that the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps; they do not function as a brake. If the machinery must hold a vertical load during air loss or valve centering, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to prevent drifting.
Quick checklist
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread. The thrust ratings are 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, so it drops directly into standard large-bore fixtures and supports LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, and TC mountings. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can attach CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for precise end-of-stroke detection.
