The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X75 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 75mm 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 large-bore actuator uses a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface to drop directly into existing heavy-duty fixtures. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, providing the high rigidity needed to handle large-bore thrust, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for extended lifespan. The G3/4 air port and 75 mm stroke move substantial loads quickly across a 30-500 mm/s speed range.
For practical sizing, 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. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. Standard TPU seals operate from -20 to +70 C, though a Viton H option extends heat resistance up to 150 C for demanding environments.

Drives bearings into heavy machinery housings, utilizing the 10053 N push force to seat components precisely within the short 75 mm travel.
Compresses irregular loads on packaging lines prior to stretch wrapping, using the robust tie-rod construction to absorb high impact forces.
Ejects formed metal parts from stamping presses, relying on the 9425 N pull force to overcome die friction and extract the component reliably.
When sizing this 160 mm bore, verify your actual load against the 9425 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less power, the smaller 125 mm bore offers 6136 N of push force; stepping up to the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N for heavier demands. Since this 75 mm stroke is relatively short, side-load risks are minimal, but always ensure the load is axially aligned to prevent premature seal wear.
Note that an unmodified SGC cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of stroke and does not function as a braking lock. To maintain vertical position holding safely, integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock. Furthermore, without the -S magnet option, this unit cannot support magnetic sensors, so external mechanical limit switches must be used for end-position detection.
Quick checklist
The SGC160X75 features a G3/4 air port and delivers a push force of 10053 N and a pull force of 9425 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 14074 N and the pull force is 13194 N. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet option, meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. However, its ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures, and the rigid tie-rod build handles high thrust efficiently.
