Airtac B06-TN Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-TN16X10S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-TN Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-TN16X10S is a genuine TN twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. A front bumper cushions the impact and adjusts the stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.

About the Airtac B06-TN Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-TN16X10S
The AirTAC TN16X10S is a double-acting twin-rod cylinder with a 16 mm bore and a short 10 mm stroke. Two parallel rods on a shared plate resist bending and twisting so the load mounts without rotating. At 0.5 MPa this bore delivers about 201 N of push thrust on the push side. An external bumper cushions impact and lets you trim the stroke by -5 to 0 mm.
This is a genuine AirTAC part meeting the enterprise standard for the TN series. A magnet is standard on every model with switch slots around the body. We confirm exact dimensions and sizing from the datasheet on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TN/TR twin-rod data. Operating pressure is set by bore (0.2 MPa minimum on the 6 and 10 mm bores). The front cover and piston are short, so avoid an over-long stroke. Overall dimensions vary per stroke and allowable side-load is published as curves — ask us and we confirm from the datasheet.
How to choose
Choose this 16 mm bore when your application needs roughly 201 N push thrust at 0.5 MPa (push side is higher than pull). The TN enterprise series uses PT threads only; the TR JIS series adds G and NPT options plus a precision guide with low rod-end deflection and two groups of ports. A 10 mm stroke is short and well within the bore 16 range, ideal for compact clamping or stopping. Confirm allowable side load from the datasheet or contact us for sizing help.
Applications
Compact Clamp
Clamps a small workpiece against a fixture in a machining cell; the short 10 mm stroke and twin rods keep the clamp pad flat without twisting under load.
Transfer Stopper
Raises a stop pin on a transfer line to halt pallet flow; the non-rotating twin rods keep the stop face aligned, and the short stroke fits tight clearance gaps.
Indexing Pusher
Pushes a part a short distance into a nest or pocket; the twin-rod anti-rotation design keeps the pusher face parallel to the part across the full 10 mm.
FAQ
What is the push thrust of the TN16X10S at 0.5 MPa?
The 16 mm bore delivers approximately 201 N push thrust at 0.5 MPa, with the push side higher than the pull side. The TN enterprise series uses PT threads only; for G or NPT threads, consider the TR JIS series.
Is the bumper an air cushion?
No. The bumper is an external front pad that cushions impact and lets you adjust the stroke by -5 to 0 mm. It is not an air cushion. For allowable side-load data and exact dimensions, confirm from the datasheet on request.
