The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X300-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 300mm 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 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 external adjuster allows you to shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 40 mm, giving a usable range of 260-300 mm without changing the cylinder itself. It yields a safe working load of roughly 3682 N, or about 313 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin. A two-way piston seal pairs with adjustable air cushions to ensure reliable operation.

| 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 260-300 mm extend stroke on-site to set precise pressing depths for bearing insertion without swapping the cylinder.
Adjust the extend end-position by up to 40 mm to alter the divert angle on a sorting line for different package sizes.
Use the CMSG or DMSG sensors to confirm the stopper position, tweaking the stroke window to match varying pallet heights.
When sizing this 125 mm bore unit, stepping down is not an option as it is the smallest in the SGCJ range, but stepping up to the 160 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push force to 10053 N. The -40 mm adjust window is ideal for sharing one spare cylinder across multiple stroke variants or fine-tuning the end position on-site. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1 and TCM2 brackets. The -S suffix confirms the magnet is present for switches. 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 external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 260-300 mm. The nominal 300 mm stroke is the maximum and the retract end is fixed. This mechanism sets the end position and is not a load lock.
