Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X450
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X450 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 450mm 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 SGCD160X450
Delivering 9425 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting double-rod tie-rod cylinder uses a 160 mm bore and 450 mm stroke. The twin-rod layout yields a symmetric load path that resists torsional twist, while four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers for structural rigidity. Genuine ISO 15552 mounting-interface interchangeability lets it drop into existing large-bore fixtures without hassle.
With a G3/4 air port and a 40 mm piston rod passing through both covers, the unit pulls and pushes with identical force. This makes it good for about 5655 N of real work, roughly 480 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin. The standard TPU seals handle -20 to +70 C, though a Viton H option extends heat resistance up to 150 C. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) | — |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 9425 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 13195 N | 13195 N |

Where the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X450 Is Used
Twin-Spindle Machining
Drives two opposing machining heads simultaneously with equal 9425 N force, keeping the cutting cycle balanced and synchronized.
Anti-Rotation Lifting Jig
Lifts roughly 480 kg of vertical payload using the symmetric two-rod layout to prevent torsional twist without external linear bearings.
Dual-End Transfer Pusher
Uses the rod extending from the rear cover to push a secondary conveyor lane, doubling throughput from a single ISO 15552 mounting fixture.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X450 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this double-rod unit, consider the neighboring bores: the 125 mm option provides 5734 N each way at 0.5 MPa, while the larger 200 mm bore yields 15079 N. The 160 mm bore sits comfortably in the middle, offering 9425 N both ways. Choose a double-rod configuration when your application demands anti-rotation guidance, drives twin tooling simultaneously, or needs a rear-end sensor cam. Mounting choices include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the stroke is 450 mm, ensure external guide rails support any side loads to prevent binding. For position feedback, you must select the -S magnet variant to use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
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 SGCD160X450 FAQ
Because the 40 mm rod passes through both covers, 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. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and it uses a G3/4 air port.
No, a plain double-rod cylinder drifts without live air; the 50 mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends. For suspended or vertical loads, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to prevent falling.
