Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X300TC
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X300TC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 300mm 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 SGC160X300TC
Generating 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles heavy industrial loads with a 160 mm bore and 300 mm stroke. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long-term lubrication. Plan for about 6032 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The unit features a G3/4 air port, an M36x2.0 rod thread, and 50 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. You can select TPU, Viton H for 0-150 C high heat, or NBR seals, and it uses the standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface for broad fixture compatibility.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X300TC Is Used
Automotive Press Loading
Pushes heavy stamped metal panels into hydraulic presses using the 10053 N push force available at 0.5 MPa.
Pallet Dispenser Mechanism
Separates empty wooden pallets from a vertical magazine stack, relying on the 300 mm stroke and TC trunnion pivot.
Concrete Mold Vibration
Secures and actuates heavy precast concrete mold halves, utilizing the rigid four-rod construction to withstand vibration.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X300TC the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore model, verify your actual load requirements against the 9425 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less power, the smaller 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa; if your application demands more thrust, step up to the 200 mm bore which yields 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa. The included TC trunnion mount utilizes the ISO 15552 interface to simplify fixture alignment.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and acts purely as an end-of-stroke buffer, never as a locking brake. To hold a load securely vertically, 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 SGC160X300TC 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, because this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet option, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. You would need to specify the -S variant to enable magnetic position sensing.
