The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC200X520S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 520mm 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 tie-rod cylinder handles heavy industrial loads with ease. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the front and rear covers, providing high structural rigidity while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without redesigning your machine footprint.
For practical sizing, plan for about 9425 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which equates to lifting roughly 801 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This specific SKU includes the -S piston magnet, enabling CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position sensing. The 520 mm stroke requires external guide support to prevent rod bending under side loads, and the G3/4 port ensures high flow for the 30-500 mm/s speed range.

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 at 0.5 MPa required to form heavy-gauge sheet metal in automated mechanical press lines.
Utilises the 520 mm stroke to push loaded pallets securely onto accumulation conveyors within high-throughput logistics hubs.
Clamps large mould halves using the tie-rod rigidity, ensuring precise alignment during high-force plastic injection cycles.
When sizing this 200 mm bore unit, stepping down to the 160 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 10053 N, while moving up to the 250 mm bore increases it to 24543 N. If your application demands vertical position holding on air loss or valve centring, note that this standard cylinder will drift; the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke ends rather than locking it. You must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
The -S magnet on this model allows seamless integration of CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. Because the 520 mm stroke exceeds 500 mm, always use an external guide to absorb side loads and prevent rod bending during full extension.
Quick checklist
The 200 mm bore provides 15708 N push and 15079 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 21991 N push and 21110 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 3204 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is G3/4.
Yes, the -S option includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. The ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures the cylinder matches standard large-bore fixture dimensions, simplifying replacement and accessory matching.
