Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X850S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X850S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 850mm 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 SGC160X850S
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting large-bore cylinder is built around a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface for direct fixture and accessory interchangeability. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the front and rear covers, providing the high rigidity needed to handle large-bore thrust, while a two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life.
The integrated -S piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position detection. Plan for roughly 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The unit features a 40 mm rod, a G3/4 air port, and a 50 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke end.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X850S Is Used
Automated Pallet Transfer
Pushes heavy loaded pallets between roller conveyors using its 10053 N push force, with the 850 mm stroke covering wide transfer gaps.
Vertical Material Lift
Raises 500 kg bulk component racks between floor levels, relying on the rigid tie-rod construction to maintain stability over the 850 mm extension.
Press Ejection System
Ejects formed metal parts from large stamping presses, using the adjustable 50 mm air cushions to soften the impact at full extension.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X850S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore unit, note the smaller Ø125 delivers 6136 N push while the larger Ø200 provides 15708 N at 0.5 MPa. Because this model has an 850 mm stroke, adding external guide rails is critical to prevent rod bending and manage side loads during long extensions. The standard air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it will not hold a load if air pressure drops. For suspended or vertical loads, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to prevent drifting.
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 SGC160X850S FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder provides 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 40 mm piston rod, a G3/4 air port, an M36x2.0 rod thread, and operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. Additionally, the body uses standard ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, allowing you to reuse existing foot, flange, or trunnion brackets without modifying the fixture.
