Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 150mm 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.

About the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for heavy-duty automation. The double-acting aluminium barrel is clamped by four steel tie rods for high structural rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir to maximize operational lifespan. It features a 40 mm rod, a G3/4 air port, and a 150 mm stroke.
For practical sizing, plan for roughly 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting about 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The standard TPU seal handles temperatures from -20 to +70 C, though a Viton H option extends this to 150 C. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA Is Used
Press Fit Assembly
Drives heavy bearings into automotive transmission housings, utilizing the 10053 N push force to seat components reliably.
Pallet Dispenser
Separates empty pallets from a stack in high-throughput logistics lines, using the CA clevis mount to handle articulated swing motions.
Bulk Container Forming
Folds and secures heavy corrugated bulk bins, relying on the 50 mm adjustable air cushions to prevent impact damage at stroke end.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare it against adjacent options: the smaller 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. If your application demands position holding, remember that exhausting the air or centring the valve will cause the piston to drift; the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the stroke near the end caps and act purely as buffers, never as brakes. To secure a suspended load, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
The model code includes a CA clevis mounting interface, conforming to ISO 15552 dimensions for straightforward fixture integration. If your machinery requires end-of-stroke detection, select the -S magnet variant instead, as this base unit cannot support sensors.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Long-stroke side load — support the rod end
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load; support long strokes at the rod end.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X150CA FAQ
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 force of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet option, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need to order the -S variant for magnetic sensing. Mechanically, it uses a genuine ISO 15552 tie-rod interface, allowing it to drop into standard large-bore fixtures.
