The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC200X180 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 180mm 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 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting large-bore actuator is built for heavy-duty automation. The Ø200 mm barrel is clamped between the front and rear covers by four steel tie rods, ensuring high structural rigidity under extreme thrust loads. A heterogeneous two-way piston seal retains an internal oil reservoir to maximize operational lifespan. Air enters via a G3/4 port, driving the Ø40 mm hard-chrome rod at speeds of 30-500 mm/s.
Because it conforms to the ISO 15552 mounting interface, this cylinder drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom bracketry. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 9425 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting about 801 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

SGC-family variants: SGC (double acting), SGCD (double rod), SGCJ (adjustable stroke). Mounting: LB / FA / FB / CA / CB / CR / TC / FTC / TCM1 / TCM2. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Provides the 15708 N push force required to actuate heavy lower dies and secure stamping blanks in high-tonnage press lines.
Drives robust mechanical clamp arms to secure unstable pallet loads during transit, utilizing the 180 mm stroke for rapid gripping.
Ejects dense plastic automotive bumpers from large injection moulding machines, relying on the four tie rods for rigid, deflection-free ejection.
When sizing this 200 mm bore option, compare it against its neighbours: the Ø160 bore yields 10053 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the massive Ø250 bore provides 24543 N. Choose this Ø200 model for applications needing roughly 15708 N of thrust. Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost or the valve is centred; the adjustable 50 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends and do not function as a locking brake. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
This 180 mm stroke falls safely below the 500 mm threshold, minimizing rod-bending risks, but always verify side-load alignment. To add magnetic sensing for end-of-stroke confirmation, you must select the -S variant instead of this base model. Mounting options include LB foot, FA/FB flange, CA/CB clevis, and TC trunnion styles.
Quick checklist
The SGC200X180 delivers a push force of 15708 N and a pull force of 15079 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 21991 N and pull is 21110 N. The theoretical maximum force is 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G3/4 air port and features a Ø40 mm piston rod with an M36x2.0 thread.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet. To use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches, you must purchase the -S variant of this cylinder. Additionally, its ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures, and the tie-rod build provides high rigidity for heavy loads.
