The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X160-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 160mm 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 ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder brings large-bore power to precision tasks. The four steel tie rods clamp the aluminum barrel securely, while the G1/2 port supplies air to the 32 mm rod. It handles a safe working load of about 3682 N, which means you can vertically lift roughly 313 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
The -10 code means an external adjuster can shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 10 mm, giving a usable range of 150 to 160 mm without changing the mount. Because it carries the -S suffix, a built-in piston magnet is ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. The retract end remains fixed, and the standard TPU seals offer long life across -20 to +70 C.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 kgf | |
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 10 mm extend window on-site to dial in the exact bottoming force for pressing bearings without remounting the cylinder.
Adjust the end position by a few millimeters to accommodate different package sizes on a shared conveyor line using the G1/2 port.
Lift loads up to 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin, using the external stop screw to set precise lift heights for various pallet stacks.
When sizing this 125 mm bore against its neighbors, note it sits at the low edge of the large-bore family, offering 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa compared to 10053 N on the 160 mm bore. The adjustable stroke is ideal for sharing a spare cylinder across slightly different stroke variants or fine-tuning the end position on-site. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For any stroke at or above 500 mm, always use a guide rail 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 is 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is G1/2.
The 160 mm nominal stroke is the maximum. An external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable extend range of 150 to 160 mm. The retract end is fixed. This stop sets the end position but does not lock the load.
