Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X1000
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X1000 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G1 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 SGCD250X1000
Delivering 23562 N of equal output force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder uses a twin-rod piston to balance loads and prevent rotation. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel, and a rod exiting each cover creates a symmetric load path ideal for driving twin tooling. Based on the 23562 N figure, it handles a safe working load of roughly 14137 N, capable of vertically lifting about 1201 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
This 250 mm bore unit features a G1 air port, a 50 mm piston rod, and 60 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends. Because it lacks the -S magnet option, this specific SKU cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. Note that NBR seals are used here, as TPU is not available on this bore size, though a Viton H option extends operation to 150 C.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø250mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) | — |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 23562 N | 23562 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 32987 N | 32987 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 5006 kgf | |
Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

Where the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X1000 Is Used
Twin-Tool Transfer
Drives two synchronized workpieces from opposite rod ends to push heavy pallets through a machining station without twisting.
Balanced Heavy Press
Applies 23562 N of equal downward and upward force to stamp thick materials, keeping the platen perfectly aligned via dual rods.
Symmetric Clamp
Secures large automotive molds by clamping from both sides simultaneously, ensuring even pressure distribution across the part.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X1000 the Right Cylinder?
Sizing both ways, the neighboring 200 mm bore provides 15079 N, while this 250 mm model tops the range at 23562 N per direction at 0.5 MPa. Choose a double-rod configuration when your mechanism requires strict anti-rotation guidance, symmetric load distribution, or a rear rod end to mount a sensor cam. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because this model has a 1000 mm stroke, you must use external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads. For position feedback, select an -S variant instead, as this base SKU lacks a magnet for sensing.
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 SGCD250X1000 FAQ
Force is equal both ways at 23562 N at 0.5 MPa and 32986 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 4805 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and it uses a G1 port.
No, the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end; you need an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load. Also, this non-S SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
