The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD200X160S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 160mm 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.
Delivering 15079 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore double-rod cylinder uses a single piston with a rod exiting both covers. The symmetric layout ensures force is equal both ways, making it good for about 9047 N of real work, roughly 769 kg lifted vertically. A G3/4 port supplies the air, while four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel.
Because the piston rod passes through both ends, the unit provides inherent anti-twist guidance and can drive twin tooling or carry a sensor cam on the back face. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You also get genuine ISO 15552 mounting-interface interchangeability and adjustable 50 mm air cushions at each end.

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

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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 synchronized workpieces from opposite rod ends to push and pull parts across a machining cell simultaneously.
Lifts heavy platens symmetrically using both rod ends, preventing torsional twist during vertical ascent and descent.
Uses the rear rod extension to trigger CMSG or DMSG magnetic switches for mid-stroke confirmation without external brackets.
This 200 mm bore sits between the 160 mm option (9425 N each way at 0.5 MPa) and the 250 mm model (23562 N). Choose the double-rod format when your mechanism demands anti-rotation stability, symmetric load paths, or back-end sensing. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The -S magnet enables position detection. For any stroke exceeding 500 mm, add external guide rails to prevent side-load wear on the seals.
Quick checklist
It provides equal force in both directions: 15079 N at 0.5 MPa and 21110 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 3075 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is G3/4.
No, the air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a brake. To prevent drift on air loss, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
