The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD200X175S is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 175mm 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 Ø40 mm piston rod passing through both covers to guarantee identical push and pull forces. The symmetric layout creates a balanced load path that resists torsional twist, while the rear rod extension can drive a secondary mechanism or act as a sensor cam. It offers a safe working load of roughly 9047 N, which translates to lifting about 769 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety factor.
Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the cast covers, and the G3/4 air port feeds the chambers at speeds of 30-500 mm/s. The built-in piston magnet (-S suffix) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG electronic switches for end-of-stroke detection. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore pneumatic fixtures without custom brackets.

| Pressure | Force (both ways) | — |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 15080 N | 15080 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 21111 N | 21111 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 3204 kgf | |
Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

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 opposing machining heads simultaneously using both rod ends, ensuring perfectly synchronized cutting cycles.
Pushes a workpiece forward while the rear rod retracts a return conveyor paddle, maintaining a balanced load path.
Lifts heavy pallets with equal force both ways, using the dual rods to prevent rack twist during elevation.
When sizing this symmetric actuator, step down to the 160 mm bore for 9425 N equal force, or step up to the 250 mm bore for 23562 N if you need heavier lifting. A double-rod design is the right call when you need anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling on one axis, or a back-end position cam. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For this 175 mm stroke, ensure external guide rails carry any lateral side-load to prevent premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
It delivers equal force in both directions: 15079 N at 0.5 MPa and 21110 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 3075 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is G3/4.
No, a plain cylinder drifts without live air, and the 50 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
