The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X150-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 150mm 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 rigidity. The built-in piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors for precise position detection, while the G1/2 port handles the 30-500 mm/s speed range.
The -20 code means an external adjuster can shorten the extend stroke on site by up to 20 mm, giving a usable range of 130-150 mm without changing the mount. This on-site tuning lets you fine-tune the end position and share spares across stroke variants. It handles a safe working load of about 3682 N, lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. A two-way piston seal ensures reliable operation, and Viton H seals can raise the ambient limit to 150 C.

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 130-150 mm extend position on site to seat bearings without bottoming out the tooling.
Fine-tune the stop length by up to 20 mm to handle varying package sizes on a shared line.
Use the magnetic feedback and adjustable stroke to set precise pallet halt points before wrapping.
This 125 mm bore sits at the low edge of the SGCJ range, offering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa; step up to the 160 mm bore for 10053 N if your payload grows. The 20 mm adjustable window is ideal for dialing in exact end positions on shared fixtures. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1 and TCM2 brackets. The -S suffix confirms the magnet is present for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. For any stroke over 500 mm, use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 6136 N and pulls 5734 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 8590 N and pulls 8028 N. The theoretical max is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a G1/2 port.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 130-150 mm. The nominal 150 mm stroke is the maximum, and the retract end is fixed. This mechanism sets the end position but does not lock the load.
