The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X1400 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 1400mm 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 ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for heavy-duty automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. The G3/4 air port feeds the 40 mm piston rod, and the unit travels at 30-500 mm/s.
Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. For real-world sizing, plan for about 6032 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Standard TPU seals handle -20 to +70 C, though Viton H raises this to 150 C.

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.
Shoves heavy pallets along a 1400 mm accumulation line, utilizing the 10053 N push force to overcome friction without stalling.
Actuates a large loading dock door across a 1.4 meter span, relying on the rigid tie-rod construction to maintain alignment.
Ejects finished metal parts from a stamping press, using the 9425 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to retract the 40 mm rod reliably.
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare it against the smaller 125 mm option (6136 N push @0.5 MPa) or the larger 200 mm bore (15708 N push @0.5 MPa) to match your exact load. At a 1400 mm stroke, the extended rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads, so an external guide bearing is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal failure.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps and do not act as a holding brake. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread. It generates 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet. You must select the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. However, all versions share the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing you to drop the cylinder into existing large-bore fixtures.
