The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X275S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 275mm 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 large-bore cylinder brings serious muscle to heavy automation. The Ø160 mm bore operates on a G3/4 port and uses an M36x2.0 rod thread. Plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
Built to ISO 15552 mounting-interface dimensions, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without redesign. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors directly for position detection.

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.
Provides the 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa needed to eject formed metal parts from heavy stamping presses.
Uses its 275 mm stroke and 512 kg vertical lift capacity to lift and transfer loaded pallets between conveyor zones.
Secures large automotive castings during machining, relying on the rigid four-tie-rod construction to resist deflection.
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare it against its neighbours: the smaller Ø125 bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger Ø200 bore provides 15708 N. If your load drops when air is removed or the valve centres, note that this standard cylinder will drift; the end cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke limits and do not act as a brake. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This 275 mm stroke falls below the 500 mm side-load threshold, but always ensure the M36x2.0 rod end aligns with the load to prevent premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
This Ø160 mm bore model features a G3/4 air port and delivers 10053 N push / 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push / 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. It is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing it to use the same fixtures and accessories as any standard ISO 15552 large-bore cylinder.
