The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X1400S 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 double-acting 160 mm bore tie-rod cylinder handles heavy-duty linear motion over its 1400 mm stroke. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity under large-bore thrust, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures. Equipped with a G3/4 port and an M36x2.0 rod thread, it carries a built-in magnet for position sensing.
For practical sizing, plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for end-of-stroke detection. Standard TPU seals handle temperatures from -20 to +70 C, with Viton H available for 0-150 C high-temperature environments.

Pushes heavy stamping blanks into a press bed over the 1400 mm travel, utilizing the 10053 N push force to move heavy steel sheets reliably.
Extracts empty pallets from a vertical magazine, requiring the extended stroke and robust tie-rod construction to handle the long reach and high cycle counts.
Actuates a large transfer arm in a sawmill to push logs onto an outfeed conveyor, depending on the 512 kg vertical lift equivalent for gravity-assisted loading.
When sizing this actuator, compare it against its neighbors: the smaller 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. This 160 mm model fits applications needing around 10053 N. Because the 1400 mm stroke creates a long lever arm, you must use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. Additionally, a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end. To hold a load securely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 160 mm bore model uses 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.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. The standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability, allowing you to reuse existing large-bore fixtures and accessories without redesigning the mounting footprint.
