Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X912S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X912S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 912mm 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 SGC160X912S
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting large-bore cylinder brings serious power to automated lines. The SGC160X912S features a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface, dropping directly into existing large-bore fixtures without redesign. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. A built-in piston magnet (-S) enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.
With a 912 mm stroke and G3/4 air port, it handles extended travel tasks efficiently. Plan for about 6032 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The standard TPU seal operates from -20 to +70 C, with Viton H available for 0-150 C environments.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X912S Is Used
Pallet Transfer Line
Indexes heavy timber pallets along a 900 mm machining cell using the 10053 N push force.
Press Ejection
Ejects formed metal parts from a hydraulic press over 912 mm of travel before the next cycle.
Automated Warehousing
Actuates large load diverters in distribution hubs, relying on the ISO 15552 interface for easy retrofitting.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC160X912S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore unit, compare it against its neighbours: the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 200 mm bore provides 15708 N. If your load requires holding position on air loss, note that a plain cylinder drifts when the valve is centered; the 50 mm adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end. For secure vertical loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Because the 912 mm stroke is substantial, always use an external guide to prevent rod bending and absorb side loads.
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 SGC160X912S FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and M36x2.0 rod thread. It delivers 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The four steel tie rods clamp the assembly for high rigidity, and the ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures.
