About the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X700SH
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder integrates a robust four-steel-tie-rod design clamping the aluminum barrel to the covers for maximum rigidity. The SH configuration includes a piston magnet for position sensing and Viton H seals, extending the operating temperature range up to 150 C for high-heat environments.
Equipped with a G3/4 air port and a 50 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends, it handles a 700 mm stroke smoothly. Plan for roughly 6032 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The two-way piston seal retains an oil reservoir to ensure long service life.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X700SH Is Used
Automotive Press Demolding
Extracts heavy cured composite parts from heated automotive presses, utilizing the Viton H high-temperature seals to withstand 150 C ambient heat while pushing with 14074 N at 0.7 MPa.
High-Reach Palletizer Ejection
Deploys the 700 mm stroke to eject finished pallets from a packaging cell, relying on the CMSG magnetic sensors to confirm full extension under dynamic loads.
Industrial Oven Door Actuation
Opens and closes heavy insulated oven doors on a manufacturing line, where the ISO 15552 mounting interface allows straightforward replacement using existing foot and flange brackets.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X700SH the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore actuator, 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. Because this model features a 700 mm stroke, external guide rails are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and absorb side loads during extension. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for precise end-position detection.
Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends and does not function as a braking device. If the application requires the load to remain suspended when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to prevent drift. The Viton H seal makes this unit ideal for hot environments up to 150 C.
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 SGC160X700SH FAQ
This 160 mm bore double-acting 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, increasing to 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the 700 mm stroke and acts purely as a shock absorber, not a brake. To prevent the load from drifting downward under a pressure loss or centered valve, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
