Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X175STC
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X175STC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 175mm 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 SGC160X175STC
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder is built for heavy-duty automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, providing the high rigidity needed to handle large-bore thrust, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Plan for about 6032 N of real work, or roughly 512 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin.
This 160 mm bore unit features a 175 mm stroke, a G3/4 air port, and an M36x2.0 rod thread. The included -S magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures, and the factory-installed TC trunnion mount simplifies pivot-centering in new machinery.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X175STC Is Used
Press Die Ejection
Provides the 10053 N push force required to eject heavy stamped metal panels from press dies, utilizing the TC trunnion to accommodate angular misalignment during the 175 mm extraction stroke.
Pallet Stopper Gate
Acts as a robust pneumatic stop gate on high-mass pallet conveyors, using its 9425 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to retract the barrier and allow 500 kg unit loads to pass safely.
Injection Mold Clamping
Secures mid-size injection molding tooling halves, relying on the rigid four-tie-rod construction to withstand high initial impact forces without barrel deflection during the mold close cycle.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X175STC the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore actuator, compare its 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the smaller 125 mm bore (6136 N) and the larger 200 mm bore (15708 N) to ensure you have the right thrust margin. The 175 mm stroke keeps the rod compact, but for any application exceeding 500 mm you must account for side-load risks and add external guide rails to prevent rod bending. A plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve is centered, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if your fixture requires suspended load holding. The air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and cannot act as a brake.
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 SGC160X175STC FAQ
This 160 mm bore model features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread. It delivers 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.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG reed or electronic switches. The TC trunnion mount utilizes the standardized ISO 15552 interface, allowing the cylinder body to pivot smoothly around its center axis for articulated mechanisms.
