Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X200
The AirTAC Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X200 is a genuine double acting, double rod ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø250mm bore and 200mm 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 SGCD250X200
Generating 23562 N of equal thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder uses a twin-rod piston to balance the load path completely. The G1 air port feeds a chamber where the rod-side area dictates force, yielding a safe working load of about 14137 N for real work. This translates to lifting roughly 1201 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, providing structural rigidity under high stress. Because the Ø250 bore omits TPU seals, the standard NBR packings handle the 0.15-1.0 MPa operating range, with a Viton H option available for 0-150 C heat. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without switching to an -S variant.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø250mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) | — |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 23562 N | 23562 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 32987 N | 32987 N |

Where the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X200 Is Used
Twin-Press Stamping
Drives two synchronized forming tools simultaneously from one piston, utilizing the equal force on both rod ends to stamp heavy-gauge material.
Balanced Lift Platform
Raises and lowers a 1200 kg platen symmetrically, using the through-rod design to prevent torsional twist and maintain precise vertical alignment.
Dual-End Diverters
Actuates sorting flaps on both sides of a heavy-duty roller line simultaneously, ensuring packages are pushed accurately across the lane.
Is the Airtac SGCD Dual Rod Cylinder SGCD250X200 the Right Cylinder?
Sitting at the top of the SGCD range, this 250 mm bore out-muscles the 200 mm option (15079 N each way) and represents the maximum thrust available before moving to custom solutions. Choose this double-rod architecture when you need strict anti-rotation guidance, symmetric load distribution, or a rear rod extension to drive a secondary mechanism. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. For any stroke at or exceeding 500 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent side-load binding. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; the 60 mm cushions only decelerate, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for load holding.
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 SGCD250X200 FAQ
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways using the rod-side area. It generates 23562 N at 0.5 MPa and 32986 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 4805 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 60 mm adjustable air cushion at each end and uses a G1 port.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant to enable magnetic sensing. For load holding, remember the cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to prevent drift.
