The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X120-75 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 120mm stroke, G1/2 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 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder features a 125 mm bore and a 120 mm nominal stroke. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel to the covers, while the G1/2 port feeds the double-acting single-rod piston. The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 75 mm, yielding a usable extend range of 45 to 120 mm without changing the cylinder itself. This on-site end-position tuning is ideal for sharing spares across stroke variants.
The mechanism sets the end position but is not a load lock, as a plain cylinder drifts on air loss while the 40 mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For a held load, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor, whereas the -S variant adds a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. It handles a safe working load of about 3682 N, lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops into existing large-bore fixtures and supports high-temperature Viton H seals up to 150 C.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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.
Fine-tune the 45 to 120 mm extend stroke on-site to dial in exact press-fit depths for bearings without swapping the cylinder.
Shorten the extend stroke up to 75 mm on-site to accommodate different package sizes on a sorting line using the same fixed fixture.
Leverage the 6136 N push force to push pallets into exact alignment, adjusting the end stop externally for varied pallet widths.
Size this 125 mm bore against the 160 mm option, which jumps to 10053 N push at 0.5 MPa, or step down if less force is needed. The SGCJ adjustable-stroke design shines when you need on-site end-position tuning or want a shared spare across multiple stroke variants. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept a magnetic sensor; order the -S variant if you require CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. For any stroke length at or above 500 mm, always use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage to the piston rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 6136 N push and 5734 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 8590 N push and 8028 N pull. The theoretical max force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 125 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/2 air port and features a 32 mm rod with an M27x2.0 rod-end thread.
The 120 mm nominal stroke is the maximum extend length. The external adjuster allows you to shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 75 mm, giving a usable extend range of 45 to 120 mm. The retract end is fixed. This stop sets the end position and is not a load lock.
