The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150 is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 150mm stroke, G1 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 massive thrust for heavy industrial tasks, the AirTAC SGC250X150 is a double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder built for rigorous large-bore applications. It generates 24543 N of push force and 23562 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to a theoretical maximum of 5006 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for exceptional rigidity, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir to ensure long service life.
Because of its standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface, this 250 mm bore unit drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom brackets. For practical sizing, plan for about 14726 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 1251 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; the -S variant is required for position detection. Furthermore, TPU seals are unavailable for the Ø250 bore, so the front-cover packing and buffer gasket utilize NBR (a Viton H option extends operation to 150 C).

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.
Drives large metal forming dies requiring up to 24543 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing the rigid four tie-rod build to withstand high impact.
Clamps heavy chassis components securely during robotic welding, taking advantage of the 23562 N pull force and ISO 15552 mounting interface for easy integration.
Lifts and positions full palletized goods weighing up to 1251 kg vertically, relying on the 150 mm stroke to clear packaging machinery safely.
When sizing this 150 mm stroke model, compare its 24543 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the smaller Ø200 bore, which provides 15708 N. As the largest SGC option, there is no larger standard bore available if you need more power. If your application requires the piston to maintain its position during air loss or valve centering, be aware that the standard design drifts; the adjustable 60 mm air cushions only decelerate the rod near stroke ends rather than locking it. You must integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
This non-magnetic version cannot support position switches, so choose an SGC250X150-S model if your setup requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The G1 air port and M42x2.0 rod thread are fixed by the 250 mm bore. Operating speed ranges from 30-500 mm/s across a 0.15-1.0 MPa pressure range.
Quick checklist
The SGC250X150 delivers a push force of 24543 N and a pull force of 23562 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 34360 N and the pull force is 32986 N. The theoretical maximum force is 5006 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 250 mm bore cylinder features a G1 air port, an M42x2.0 rod thread, and a 60 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends.
No, this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you must select the -S variant for sensing capabilities. Additionally, TPU seals are not offered for the Ø250 bore. The front-cover packing and buffer gasket use NBR seals, though a high-temperature Viton H option is available for environments up to 150 C.
