The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD125X75S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 75mm stroke, G1/2 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 exactly 5734 N of thrust and pull at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting AirTAC SGCD125X75S cylinder uses a through-rod piston to guarantee identical force in both directions. The twin-rod layout creates a symmetric load path that resists torsional twist, making it ideal for guiding heavy platens or driving two tools at once. It features a G1/2 port and a built-in piston magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Built on a genuine ISO 15552 tie-rod frame, four steel rods clamp the aluminum barrel to deliver rigid, high-pressure performance up to 1.0 MPa. The 5734 N output translates to a safe working load of about 3440 N, which can vertically lift roughly 292 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Standard TPU seals handle temperatures from -20 to +70 C, while adjustable 40 mm air cushions at both ends absorb end-of-stroke impact.

Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

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 two opposing forming tools simultaneously with equal 5734 N force, using the through-rod design to maintain strict parallelism without rotational drift.
Uses both rod ends to push and pull a diverting flap from opposite sides, ensuring the load path remains balanced and preventing guide bushing wear.
Lifts heavy palletized loads straight up, relying on the equal pull force and anti-twist geometry to keep the platen level during rapid 30-500 mm/s transit.
This 125 mm bore sits at the lower edge of the SGCD large-bore family, offering 5734 N each way at 0.5 MPa. If your application needs less force, step down is not available within this double-rod series, so consider a smaller ISO 15552 profile. If you require more power, the 160 mm bore provides 9425 N both ways. Choose the double-rod configuration when you need anti-rotation stability, twin tooling drives, or a back-end sensor cam. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The -S suffix indicates the internal magnet is present for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For any stroke over 500 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent side-load binding.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal in both directions. It provides 5734 N at 0.5 MPa and 8028 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 1169 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G1/2 port.
The -S means a piston magnet is installed, allowing direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed or electronic switches. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold load on air loss; the cushions only decelerate. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads.
