The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X475 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 475mm 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 ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder handles heavy automation tasks 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 extended operational life. Plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, or roughly 512 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
The 160 mm bore features a 40 mm piston rod, an M36x2.0 rod thread, and a G3/4 air port. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. The standard TPU seals support a -20 to +70 C temperature range, though Viton H options can raise this to 150 C for high-heat environments.

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 robust 10053 N push force needed to eject formed metal parts from heavy stamping presses, utilizing the 475 mm stroke to clear the die area completely.
Ideal for separating and feeding empty pallets in high-throughput logistics lines, where the 160 mm bore moves heavy stacks reliably at 30-500 mm/s.
Drives the ram in industrial waste compactors, using the 50 mm adjustable air cushions to smoothly decelerate the 475 mm stroke under high inertial loads.
When sizing this 475 mm stroke model, compare it against its neighbors: the smaller SGC125 bore offers 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger SGC200 bore provides 15708 N. At a 475 mm extension, side-load forces are significant; ensure external guide rails support the load to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. The adjustable 50 mm air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end, but they do not act as a lock. If the application requires holding a load vertically during air loss or valve centering, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to prevent drift. For position sensing, select the -S magnet variant instead of this SKU to enable CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
The SGC160X475 has a G3/4 air port and generates 10053 N push / 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 14074 N push / 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you need the -S variant for sensing. Dimensionally, it uses the ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing it to drop into standard large-bore ISO 15552 fixtures and accessories.
