Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X360S
The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X360S is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 360mm 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 SGC250X360S
Delivering massive linear thrust, this double-acting ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder pushes with 24543 N at 0.5 MPa. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for high rigidity, while a 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.
Equipped with a -S piston magnet, this unit supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. The Ø250 bore uses a G1 air port and an M42x2.0 rod thread. 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 TPU seals are not offered on this bore; the front-cover packing is NBR, with a Viton H option available for 0-150 C environments.

Where the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X360S Is Used
Heavy Press Stamping
Provides the 24543 N push force at 0.5 MPa required to form thick gauge steel plates in automated stamping lines.
Palletizer Head Actuator
Lifts and lowers heavy palletizing heads with a safe working load of roughly 1251 kg vertically, utilizing the -S magnet for cycle counting.
Large Mold Clamping
Secures substantial injection molds via the rigid four tie-rod build, using the G1 port for high-volume air delivery during rapid clamping.
Is the Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X360S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 360 mm stroke actuator, compare it against the neighboring SGC bores: the Ø200 outputs 15708 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the Ø250 is the largest available in this series at 24543 N. If you need to hold a suspended load vertically, remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered. The 60 mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end, so you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure holding. Furthermore, at 360 mm of travel, ensure your external guide rails carry the payload to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
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 SGC250X360S FAQ
This Ø250 bore model features a G1 air port and an M42x2.0 rod thread. It generates 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 of 5006 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet compatible with CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches. The ISO 15552 mounting interface ensures dimensional interchangeability with standard large-bore fixtures, and the four steel tie rods provide structural rigidity under high thrust.
