The AirTAC Airtac B07-TCM Automotive-Specific Triaxial Cylinder B07-TCM50X175S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 175mm stroke on twin guide rods. Its integrated brass sliding bearing gives high radial-load and impact resistance — about double the horizontal impact tolerance of a plain cylinder, holding the tool square to ±0.05° of rotation without any external linear guide.
The AirTAC B07-TCM50X175S is a JIS-standard twin-rod guided cylinder built for automotive assembly and handling lines. The "B07-" prefix designates this as the automotive-industry dedicated variant of the base TCM50X175S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model but explicitly targeted at vehicle manufacturing tasks. As a double-acting actuator, it generates 982 N of push and 825 N of pull at 0.5 MPa. The integrated brass sliding bearing handles radial loads and hard knocks, shrugging off weld spatter, coolant, and grit where a steel-ball guide would jam.
A Ø20 mm piston rod drives the load while two guide rods maintain a ±0.05° non-rotating tolerance, keeping grippers or fixture plates perfectly square during off-centre pushes. Air feeds through 1/4" ports, and the body offers two independent port groups (upper face and side) so you can plumb from whichever direction is clear without extra elbows. Stroke ends are damped by fixed elastomer pads rather than an adjustable cushion, absorbing the stop without needing a screw to tune. The standard built-in magnet works with CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches in any of the four sensor slots.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TCL/TCM series datasheet (JIS standard). Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every TC model ships with a built-in magnet for sensor switches.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max | 200 kgf | |
Force is set by the bore and piston rod (Ø20 mm); the twin guide rods carry side load and torque, not thrust. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.
| TC | Tri-rod (guided, twin-rod) cylinder, double acting. |
|---|---|
| M | Bearing: Brass sliding bearing (M = brass sliding). |
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×175 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Built-in magnet (standard on TC) for a magnetic sensor switch. |
Sister type: TCL50X175 (steel-ball linear bearing, lower friction & higher precision). Thread codes: blank = PT · G · T = NPT.
Tolerates weld spatter and grit while providing 982 N of clamping force at 0.5 MPa. The brass sliding bearing survives harsh cell environments where a ball guide would wear prematurely.
Halts heavy chassis skids with 1374 N of push at 0.7 MPa. The twin guide rods absorb the radial impact of arriving loads, keeping the stop plate square with ±0.05° precision.
Moves heavy engine components laterally without twisting. The integrated guide eliminates the need for an external linear rail, saving space and alignment work on the assembly machine.
This 50 mm bore provides 982 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it a solid choice for medium-heavy automotive fixturing. If you need slightly less force, the Ø40 bore yields 628 N; stepping up to the Ø63 bore provides 1559 N for heavier pallets. When precision rather than impact survival is the priority, consider the sibling TCL series with its steel-ball linear bearing for low-friction, high-accuracy vertical loads. To replace this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 1/4" port, PT thread, and the standard S magnet. Note that if air pressure drops or the valve centers, the rod will drift downward—the guide prevents rotation, not gravity—so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for fail-safe load holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push and 825 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N. The theoretical maximum force is 200 kgf.
The B07- prefix simply marks this as the automotive-industry dedicated version of the TCM50X175S; it shares the exact same physical specs as the base model. Regarding end-of-stroke damping, it uses fixed rubber TPU bumpers at each end—there is no adjustable air cushion screw to set.
