Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X225
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X225 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 225mm 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 SGC160X225
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting large-bore cylinder handles heavy automation tasks with ease. It features a robust tie-rod build where four steel rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, and a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. 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 Ø160 mm bore utilizes a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 piston rod. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. Dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures, and a Viton H seal option can raise the standard -20 to +70 C operating temperature up to 150 C.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X225 Is Used
Press Die Ejection
Provides the robust 10053 N push force required to eject heavy formed metal panels from large stamping presses.
Pallet Dispenser
Handles the 225 mm stroke and high thrust needed to separate and feed empty wooden pallets into automated packaging lines.
Injection Mold Clamping
Secures heavy industrial molds utilizing the rigid four-rod construction and 13194 N pull force at 0.7 MPa.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X225 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 225 mm stroke model, verify your motion requirements against the neighboring SGC bores: the smaller Ø125 bore yields 6136 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger Ø200 bore provides 15708 N. This model hits a solid middle ground with 14074 N of thrust available at 0.7 MPa. Since the 225 mm stroke exceeds 200 mm, ensure external guide rails are used to prevent rod bending under heavy lateral loads.
Note that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered, as the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end rather than locking it. To suspend a load safely, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit.
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 SGC160X225 FAQ
The SGC160X225 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 of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread.
No, because this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no internal magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the SGC160X225-S variant for magnetic sensing, though it remains dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface.
