The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X175-10 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 175mm 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 aluminium barrel for high structural rigidity. The G1/2 port feeds a 32 mm rod, and a two-way piston seal ensures reliable pressure containment. Dimensionally interchangeable per the ISO 15552 mounting interface, it drops directly into existing large-bore fixtures without custom brackets.
The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 10 mm, giving a usable range of 165-175 mm while the retract end stays fixed. This means you can fine-tune the end position without physically swapping the cylinder, making it ideal for shared spares across stroke variants. It handles about 3682 N of real work safely, which translates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a sensor; adding the -S variant enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

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.
Dial in the exact 165-175 mm extend position on-site to seat bearings without bottoming out the tooling.
Fine-tune the stop height by up to 10 mm to accommodate different package sizes on a shared line.
Shift the extend end-point slightly to align pallets without changing the cylinder mounting block.
When sizing this 125 mm bore, stepping down is not an option as it is the smallest in the SGCJ range, but stepping up to the 160 mm bore increases thrust to 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is highly useful when you need on-site end-position tuning or want a single spare to cover several stroke variants. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because this unit lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept magnetic sensors. For any stroke reaching 500 mm or more, always use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage to the rod seals.
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 nominal 175 mm stroke is the maximum. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, yielding a usable range of 165-175 mm. The retract end is fixed. This mechanism sets the end position but does not hold the load; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
