Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X600S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X600S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 600mm 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 SGC160X600S
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting large-bore cylinder handles heavy-duty linear motion. It features a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing direct dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures and accessories. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. The G3/4 air port and M36x2.0 rod thread match the 160 mm bore class.
Because the -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, this unit supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG reed or electronic switches for end-of-stroke detection. 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 default TPU seals handle -20 to +70 C, with a Viton H option available for 0-150 C environments.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X600S Is Used
Automated Press Ejection
Uses the 10053 N push force at 0.5 MPa to eject formed metal parts from heavy stamping presses, relying on the 600 mm stroke to clear the die area completely.
Pallet Dispenser Pusher
Separates empty pallets in high-throughput packaging lines, utilizing the 512 kg vertical lift equivalent to index heavy wood pallets smoothly.
Large Mold Transfer
Shifts heavy injection molds between stations, where the -S magnet triggers DMSG sensors to confirm mold positioning over 600 mm of travel.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X600S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore actuator, compare it against its neighbors: a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. For this 600 mm stroke, external guide rails are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and absorb side loads, as long strokes amplify deflection forces. The adjustable 50 mm air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end, but they do not function as a lock; if the air supply drops or the valve is centered, the load will drift. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
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 SGC160X600S FAQ
The 160 mm bore uses 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 of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the tie-rod construction follows the ISO 15552 mounting interface, so it drops into standard large-bore fixtures like FA flanges or TC trunnions. The included -S magnet allows you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly to the barrel for position detection.
