The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC200X980S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 980mm 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 standard cylinder is built around a genuine ISO 15552 mounting interface, allowing it to drop directly into existing large-bore fixtures and accessory setups. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the front and rear covers, providing the high rigidity needed to handle massive thrust loads, while a heterogeneous two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life.
Equipped with a built-in piston magnet (-S), the unit supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG electronic or reed switches for position sensing. Plan for roughly 9425 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 801 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The G3/4 air port and M36x2.0 rod thread handle the high airflow and mechanical strength required for a 980 mm extension.

Ejects heavy stamped body panels from large presses, utilizing the 15708 N push force to reliably clear the die within the cycle time.
Pushes fully loaded pallets of goods onto outbound conveyors, where the 980 mm stroke accommodates wide load variations.
Parts large injection molding tools, using the 50 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the heavy 200 mm bore piston smoothly.
Sizing must consider both force and the 980 mm stroke. If 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa is excessive, the smaller SGC160 bore provides 10053 N; stepping up to the SGC250 yields 24543 N. Because this 980 mm stroke exceeds 500 mm, you must use external guides or rod-end support to prevent side-loading and rod bending under heavy extension. The included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for end-of-stroke detection. Remember that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end caps; they do not function as a brake. To prevent drift when air is lost or the valve is centered, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 15708 N and the pull force is 15079 N. 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 features a G3/4 port, a 40 mm piston rod, and operates at speeds between 30-500 mm/s.
No, the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a locking brake. If air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. To maintain a vertical load position, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
