The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X700 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 700mm 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 is built for heavy-duty automation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium 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 port and M36x2.0 rod thread handle the high airflow and mechanical load demanded by large-bore pneumatics.
Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. Plan for about 6032 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The standard TPU seals operate from -20 to +70 C, though a Viton H option extends this to 0-150 C.

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.
Ejects heavy formed metal parts from hydraulic presses, utilizing the 10053 N push force to clear the die area reliably during automated stamping cycles.
Indexes loaded pallets along heavy-duty transfer lines, where the 700 mm stroke accommodates wide conveyor transitions without requiring multi-stage actuators.
Raises large machinery subframes into position on assembly lines, depending on external guides to maintain alignment over the extended 700 mm travel distance.
When sizing this 160 mm bore actuator, compare it against its neighbours: the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. If your fixture relies on the ISO 15552 mounting interface, this model drops directly into existing LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion hardware. Since this specific configuration has no -S suffix, you must select an external mechanical limit switch if position feedback is required.
Running a 700 mm stroke on a large-bore piston generates significant leverage, so external guide rails are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads. Furthermore, the 50 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not act as a brake. If the load must be prevented from drifting when air pressure is lost or the valve is centred, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The 160 mm bore generates a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 14074 N and pull is 13194 N. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G3/4 air port and a 50 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends.
No, because this specific model lacks the -S magnet suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. You would need the -S variant for magnetic sensing, or use external mechanical switches. The unit is built with a genuine ISO 15552 tie-rod mounting interface for interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures.
