Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 150mm stroke, G3/4 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 SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S
Delivering 9425 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder uses a twin-rod piston to equalize output force. The four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel securely, and the G3/4 port matches the 160 mm bore. Because the rod passes through both covers, it provides a symmetric load path that resists torsional twist.
With a safe working load around 5655 N, it can vertically lift roughly 480 kg with a 2:1 margin. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for end-position sensing. Standard TPU seals handle -20 to +70 C, while a Viton H option extends heat resistance up to 150 C.

Where the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S Is Used
Twin-Tool Servo Drive
Drives two opposing forming tools simultaneously from a single piston, ensuring perfectly synchronized press cycles.
Anti-Rotation Web Guide
Uses the dual output shafts to prevent torsional deflection while positioning heavy paper or foil webs without external linear bearings.
Symmetric Lift Platform
Balances heavy vertical lifting loads evenly across both rod ends, eliminating uneven seal wear during rapid transfer operations.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 160 mm bore, step down to the 125 mm for 5734 N or up to the 200 mm for 15079 N of equal both-ways force at 0.5 MPa. Choose this double-rod configuration when your mechanism demands anti-rotation stability, needs to drive twin tooling from opposite ends, or requires a rear sensor cam. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The -S suffix ensures full compatibility with CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors. For any stroke exceeding 500 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent side-load wear on the rod seals.
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 SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X150S FAQ
Because the rod exits both ends, force is equal in both directions: 9425 N at 0.5 MPa and 13194 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 1922 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G3/4 air port.
No. A plain double-rod cylinder drifts on air loss, as the adjustable 50 mm cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end. To hold a load securely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
