Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC 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.

About the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC
Delivering massive thrust for heavy-duty automation, this double-acting tie-rod cylinder generates 24543 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The robust design uses four steel tie rods to clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, ensuring high rigidity while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because this is a 250 mm bore unit, TPU seals are not offered; instead, it relies on an NBR front-cover packing and buffer gasket, with a Viton H option available for 0-150 C high-temperature environments.
Dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures and utilizes a G1 air port with an M42x2.0 rod-end thread. Plan for about 14726 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 1251 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC Is Used
Automotive Press Stamping
Drives heavy lower dies into position in large stamping presses, utilizing the 24543 N push force to shift massive tooling assemblies securely.
Steel Slab Handling
Actuates pivot arms on trunnion mounts to rotate or lift hot steel slabs, relying on the NBR seals and tie-rod rigidity for continuous high-impact duty.
Palletizer Strapping Head
Clamps heavy unitized pallet loads prior to banding, easily managing the 1251 kg vertical lift equivalent to stabilize goods during transit wrapping.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 250 mm bore option, the next step down is the 200 mm bore (delivering 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa), while the 250 mm stands as the largest available SGC frame. The integrated TC trunnion mounting is ideal for pivoting loads, but remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve is centered; the adjustable 60 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end rather than locking it. For suspended or vertical loads that must be held securely, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Since this model lacks the -S suffix, adding magnetic sensors requires switching to a variant with the magnet installed.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Long-stroke side load — support the rod end
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load; support long strokes at the rod end.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X150TC FAQ
This 250 mm bore cylinder features a G1 air port and an M42x2.0 rod thread. It delivers 24543 N push and 23562 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 34360 N push and 32986 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 5006 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need to select the -S variant to enable magnetic sensing. The unit is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface and uses a TC trunnion mount.
