Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X80S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X80S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 80mm 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 SGC160X80S
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting tie-rod cylinder brings serious thrust to large-bore automation. The Ø160 mm bore operates on a G3/4 port, and the four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity. Because it uses the standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom brackets.
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. The included -S piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic switches for end-of-stroke confirmation. A two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir to lubricate the 40 mm hard-chrome rod, and the default TPU seals handle temperatures from -20 to +70 C.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X80S Is Used
Press Fit Assembly
Drives heavy bearing housings into automotive transmission casings using the full 10053 N thrust at 0.5 MPa.
Pallet Stopping
Halts loaded 500 kg pallets on a high-speed conveyor line, using the built-in magnet for deceleration signaling.
Injection Mold Clamping
Provides auxiliary holding force on large plastic injection molds where the 160 mm bore fits existing ISO 15552 tooling.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X80S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore, compare it against the smaller SGC125 (6136 N push @0.5 MPa) or the larger SGC200 (15708 N push @0.5 MPa) to match your exact load. The 80 mm stroke keeps the rod compact, minimizing side-load bending moments. Remember that the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps; they do not act as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load when air pressure drops or the valve is centered, you must add an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock.
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 SGC160X80S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 10053 N push and 9425 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 14074 N push and 13194 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is G3/4.
Yes, the -S suffix means a magnet is built in, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches to be mounted directly on the barrel. The ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures and accessories.
