Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X700
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X700 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 700mm 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 SGCD160X700
Delivering 9425 N of equal force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore double-rod cylinder uses a symmetric load path to eliminate piston twist. The twin rods exiting both covers provide anti-rotation guidance while allowing you to drive two tools simultaneously or mount a rear sensor cam. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel, ensuring rigid construction and a durable two-way piston seal. It offers a safe working load of about 5655 N, which is roughly 480 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin.
This genuine ISO 15552 tie-rod unit is dimensionally interchangeable via the standard mounting interface. It features a 160 mm bore, a 40 mm rod, and a G3/4 air port. The 50 mm adjustable air cushions at each end decelerate the piston smoothly. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches without the -S option. Also, a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load securely.

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 SGCD160X700 Is Used
Dual-Station Conveyor Transfer
Uses the twin rods to push and retract parts at two separate workstations simultaneously, keeping cycle times perfectly synchronized.
Symmetric Lift Platform
Employs the equal both-ways force to raise and lower a heavy 480 kg platen smoothly, relying on the anti-twist geometry for stable vertical guidance.
Twin-Press Tooling Drive
Drives two forming tools from opposite ends of the cylinder, leveraging the symmetric load path to maintain parallel pressing without rotation.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD160X700 the Right Cylinder?
Sizing this 160 mm bore against its neighbors shows a clear step: the 125 mm bore provides 5734 N each way, while the 250 mm bore yields 23562 N. At 9425 N both ways, this model sits perfectly in the middle for heavy twin-tool tasks. Choose a double-rod design when your application demands strict anti-rotation, symmetric load distribution, or back-end sensing. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because this is a non-magnetized SKU, it cannot take sensors; specify the -S variant for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switch readiness. Finally, with a 700 mm stroke, you must use external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads.
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 SGCD160X700 FAQ
This double-acting double-rod cylinder outputs 9425 N at 0.5 MPa and 13194 N at 0.7 MPa. Because the rod passes through both covers, this force is exactly equal in both directions. The theoretical maximum is 1922 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 160 mm bore, a 40 mm rod, and a G3/4 port.
No, this specific SKU is not magnetized and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant to get the internal magnet required for magnetic sensing. However, the double-rod design does allow you to mount a physical sensor cam on the rear rod if needed.
