The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X125-100S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 125mm 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 uses four steel rods to clamp its aluminum barrel for high structural rigidity. It handles a safe working load of about 3682 N, which translates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The bore dictates a G1/2 port, a 32 mm rod, and 40 mm adjustable air cushions at each end.
The -100 code means an external adjuster can shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 100 mm, yielding a usable extend range of 25-125 mm without changing the cylinder itself. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position detection. The retract end remains fixed, and the standard TPU seals offer long life across -20 to +70 C, with a Viton H option for 0-150 C heat.

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.
Dial in the exact 25-125 mm extend contact point on a light-duty assembly press without swapping the entire cylinder body.
Adjust the extend length on a diverter gate to handle different package sizes on the same production line.
Keep one cylinder as a universal spare for multiple 125 mm bore lifts, shortening the stroke on-site to match the original.
When sizing this unit, stepping down is not an option as 125 mm is the smallest SGCJ bore, delivering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa. Stepping up to the 160 mm bore increases that thrust to 10053 N if your fixture needs more power. The adjustable stroke is ideal for sharing one spare cylinder across multiple stroke variants or fine-tuning the end position on-site. You can mount it via FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 brackets. The built-in -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches to track piston travel. For any stroke at or above 500 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent side-load damage.
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 maximum force is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is G1/2.
The nominal 125 mm stroke is the maximum. The external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 25-125 mm. The retract end is fixed, and this stop only sets the end position, not a load lock.
