The AirTAC Airtac SGC Standard Cylinder SGC250X600TC is a genuine double acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 600mm 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 industry, this double-acting tie-rod cylinder pushes with 24543 N and pulls with 23562 N at 0.5 MPa. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for extreme rigidity under high stress, while the two-way piston seal maintains an internal oil reservoir for long service life. Because it carries the standardized ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom bracketry.
For real-world sizing, plan for about 14726 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 1251 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The Ø250 bore uses a G1 air port and an M42x2.0 rod thread. Note that TPU seals are unavailable for this bore; the front-cover packing and buffer gasket are NBR, with a Viton H option for 0-150 C high-temperature environments.

| 0.7 MPa | 34361 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 5006 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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 press dies requiring 24543 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to form thick steel plates.
Pivots on the TC trunnion to rotate heavy pallet loads up to 1251 kg vertically through a 600 mm arc.
Secures large injection molding halves, using the NBR buffer gasket to absorb 34360 N peak impacts at 0.7 MPa.
This 250 mm bore sits at the top of the SGC range, so if 24543 N of push at 0.5 MPa is excessive, step down to the 200 mm bore (15708 N push). There is no larger standard SGC option for higher demands. The TC trunnion mount suits pivoting loads, but because this is a 600 mm stroke, you must use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage. As a standard SKU without the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches; order the -S variant if sensing is required. Finally, the end cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end and will not hold a load if air pressure drops—install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for vertical safety.
Quick checklist
This 250 mm bore cylinder features a G1 air port and delivers 24543 N push / 23562 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 34360 N push / 32986 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 5006 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The four steel tie-rod construction provides high rigidity while remaining dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface for standard TC trunnion, foot, and flange accessories.
