Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X200
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X200 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 200mm 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 SGCD160X200
Delivering 9425 N of equal force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder uses a twin-rod piston to balance the load path completely. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers, providing structural rigidity for heavy industrial duty. The G3/4 air port feeds the 40 mm rod, which features an M36x2.0 thread at both ends.
Because the rod exits both covers, the pressure area stays identical on extension and retraction, yielding a safe working load of about 5655 N or a 480 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. This plain SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. A Viton H seal option extends the operating temperature from -20 to +70 C up to 0-150 C for hot environments.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) | — |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 9425 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 13195 N | 13195 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 2050 kgf | |
Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

Where the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X200 Is Used
Twin-Tool Indexing
Drives two opposing forming tools simultaneously from one central piston, keeping cycle timing perfectly synchronized.
Symmetric Lift Platform
Balances heavy vertical lifting platforms evenly from both rod ends to prevent binding under asymmetric loads.
Anti-Rotation Diverter
Pushes a conveyor diverter arm out and back without twisting, using the double-rod structure for built-in guidance.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X200 the Right Cylinder?
Sized between the 125 mm bore (5734 N both ways) and the 200 mm bore (15079 N both ways), the 160 mm bore hits a strong middle ground for demanding mid-weight tasks. Choose this double-rod configuration when your application demands anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling driven from one piston, or a symmetric load path. It supports FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts via the ISO 15552 mounting interface. For any stroke at or above 500 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent side-load binding. This non-magnet version cannot host sensors; select the -S variant for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switch readiness.
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 SGCD160X200 FAQ
The force is equal in both directions due to the double-rod design: 9425 N at 0.5 MPa, 13194 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 1922 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G3/4 port, a 40 mm rod, and an M36x2.0 rod thread.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 50 mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end. To hold a load securely, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
