The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC200X40S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 40mm 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 cylinder handles heavy industrial tasks with ease. The SGC200X40S features a robust tie-rod construction where four steel rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, ensuring high rigidity under stress. A two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long operational life, while the G3/4 port facilitates high airflow. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it directly supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches.
Thanks to its standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface, the unit drops seamlessly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom bracketry. For practical sizing, plan for about 9425 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 801 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The 40 mm stroke moves quickly, and adjustable air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston smoothly near the end caps.

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 robust 15708 N push force required to clamp heavy steel blanks in automated stamping lines.
Uses the short 40 mm stroke and built-in magnet to rapidly square heavy pallets before stretch wrapping.
Applies high clamping pressure to secure large injection molding tooling halves during machine setup.
When sizing this 200 mm bore model, compare your real load against the 15708 N push rating at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the neighboring 160 mm bore provides 10053 N; if your application demands more power, stepping up to the 250 mm bore yields 24543 N. Because this specific SKU carries the -S suffix, you can mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly for end-of-stroke confirmation. The 40 mm stroke is highly compact, minimizing side-load risks, but always ensure rigid mounting using the available LB, FA, or TC hardware.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder like this will drift if air pressure is lost or the control valve is centered. The adjustable air cushion only slows the piston near the stroke ends and does not function as a braking device. If your machinery requires strict load holding on air loss, you must integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock.
Quick checklist
This 200 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread. It delivers 15708 N push and 15079 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 21991 N push and 21110 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing you to use standard large-bore accessories. Additionally, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet, enabling the use of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic switches.
