Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X450SH
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X450SH is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 450mm 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 SGC160X450SH
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles large-bore automation with ease. 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 service life. Plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
The -S suffix equips the piston with a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing, and the -H option specifies a Viton seal rated for 0-150 C high-temperature environments. Air enters via the G3/4 port, driving the 40 mm rod at 30-500 mm/s. Adjustable 50 mm air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy near the stroke limits, but they do not lock the piston; you will need an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load securely.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X450SH Is Used
Injection Mold Platen Clamping
Applies up to 14074 N of push force at 0.7 MPa to secure heavy mold halves, utilizing the Viton H seal to withstand ambient heat radiating from the mold surfaces.
Hot Forge Press Ejection
Ejects forged parts using the 450 mm stroke, where the 0-150 C Viton seal survives the high ambient temperatures of the forging cell that would degrade standard TPU.
Pallet Diverting Arm
Actuates a heavy diverting arm to reroute loaded pallets, relying on the CMSG sensor to confirm the full 450 mm extension and the tie-rod build to absorb shock.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X450SH the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare it against its neighbors: 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 exceeds the 512 kg vertical lift guideline, stepping up to the 200 mm is advisable. Because this model features a 450 mm stroke, mounting stability is critical—ensure your fixture uses ISO 15552 interface dimensions (like FA flange or TC trunnion) and provide external guide rails to prevent rod bending under side loads. The Viton H seal allows operation up to 150 C, making it suitable for hot environments where standard TPU seals would fail. Remember that standard double-acting operation means the cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost.
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 SGC160X450SH FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and a 40 mm piston rod. 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.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, so it drops directly into standard large-bore fixtures. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and the four steel tie rods provide extra rigidity for high-force applications.
