Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ160X900-40
The AirTAC Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ160X900-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) tie-rod air cylinder with a Ø160mm bore and 900mm stroke, G3/4 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 SGCJ160X900-40
Delivering 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this large-bore ISO 15552 tie-rod cylinder integrates a 40 mm external adjuster to shorten the extend stroke on-site. The nominal 900 mm travel remains the maximum, letting you fine-tune the end position without swapping the actuator. Four steel tie rods clamp the aluminium barrel to the covers for high structural rigidity, and the G3/4 port handles the required air volume. A two-way piston seal ensures leak-free operation.
This 160 mm bore model handles about 6032 N of real work safely, which translates to lifting roughly 512 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The retract end is fixed, while the usable extend range spans 860 to 900 mm. For high-heat environments up to 150 C, Viton H seals are available. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors without switching to the -S variant.

Where the Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ160X900-40 Is Used
Heavy Material Transfer
Pushes loaded pallets along a transfer line, using the 40 mm adjuster to dial in the exact pusher distance without repositioning the cylinder.
Long-Press Forming
Drives a 900 mm forming head where the bottom dead center must be tuned on-site, relying on the 50 mm adjustable air cushions to decelerate the heavy tooling.
Automated Warehousing
Actuates large lifting gates or diverters, benefiting from the ISO 15552 mounting interface to drop directly into existing heavy-duty fixtures.
Is the Airtac SGCJ125~160 Adjustable Cylinder SGCJ160X900-40 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, compare it against neighbouring bores: the 125 mm option yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas the 200 mm jumps to 15708 N. This 160 mm unit provides a balanced 10053 N at 0.5 MPa, pulling 9425 N. The 40 mm adjustable window is ideal for sharing a single spare across multiple stroke variants or dialling in exact end positions on-site. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. Because the 900 mm stroke is long, always use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. This non-magnet version cannot host sensors.
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 SGCJ160X900-40 FAQ
This 160 mm bore cylinder features a G3/4 air port and an M36x2.0 rod thread. It generates 10053 N push and 9425 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 14074 N push and 13194 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -40 code means an external stop screw allows you to shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site. The usable extend range is 860 to 900 mm, with 900 mm being the maximum. The retract end remains fixed. This mechanism only sets the end position and does not lock the load.
