Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S
The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 400mm 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.

About the Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S
Delivering 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder brings four steel rods and a two-way piston seal to heavy-duty actuation. The G1/2 port feeds the 125 mm bore, yielding a safe working load of about 3682 N, which translates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 40 mm, meaning the usable extend range is 360-400 mm while the retract end stays fixed. You can fine-tune the end position without changing the cylinder itself, and the built-in -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for position sensing.

Where the Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S Is Used
Press Tonnage Calibration
Use the 40 mm extend adjuster to precisely set the bottoming position on a light assembly press without remounting the cylinder.
Transfer Diverter Arms
Fine-tune the diverter stroke length on-site to accommodate different package widths on a sorting line.
Pallet Stopper Gates
Adjust the extend stop distance to safely catch varying pallet overhangs without replacing the actuator.
Is the Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S the Right Cylinder?
Size this 125 mm bore against the 160 mm option, which jumps to 10053 N of push at 0.5 MPa, or drop down if less force is needed. The adjustable stroke is ideal when you need on-site end-position tuning or want a shared spare across stroke variants. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The -S suffix ensures compatibility with CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. For this 400 mm stroke, use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Long-stroke side load — support the rod end
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load; support long strokes at the rod end.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ125X400-40S FAQ
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 port and delivers 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 8590 N push and 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -40 code means an external adjuster can shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 360-400 mm from the 400 mm nominal maximum. The retract end is fixed, and this mechanism only sets end position, not load holding.
