The AirTAC Airtac B07-TCM Automotive-Specific Triaxial Cylinder B07-TCM63X50SH is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 50mm 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 B07-TCM63X50SH is an AirTAC JIS guided twin-rod cylinder engineered for automotive assembly lines, where the B07- prefix designates this as an industry-dedicated variant that is mechanically identical to the standard TCM63X50SH. A drive piston operates between two guide rods supported by a brass sliding bearing within a single integrated body. This construction eliminates the need for an external linear rail while delivering 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The brass bearing shrugs off weld spatter, grit, and coolant, offering roughly double the horizontal impact resistance of a plain cylinder where a steel-ball guide would jam.
Precision is maintained under off-centre loads with a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.05°, keeping grippers or fixtures square during transfer operations. The Ø20 mm piston rod is driven by 1/4" ports, and stroke termination is absorbed by fixed TPU bumpers rather than an adjustable air cushion. Viton (FKM) seals widen the operating temperature envelope, making the unit suitable for demanding under-body or powertrain manufacturing cells.

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 | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max | 318 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.

Sister type: TCL63X50 (steel-ball linear bearing, lower friction & higher precision). Thread codes: blank = PT · G · T = NPT.
Halts heavy skids carrying chassis components on the assembly line; the brass sliding bearing tolerates weld spatter and knocks, utilising the 1559 N push force to gate moving loads reliably.
Actuates an off-centre end-effector transferring engine blocks; the ±0.05° non-rotating accuracy keeps the tooling perfectly square under high torque without needing a separate guide rail.
Drives a riveting or clinching head in a hot, cramped under-body cell; Viton seals survive the elevated ambient heat while the twin rods absorb the radial reaction load.
Selecting this 63 mm bore provides 1559 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa. If your automotive fixture requires less force, stepping down to the Ø50 bore yields 982 N of push. For heavier gripping or pressing, moving up to the Ø80 bore provides 2513 N. When your application demands high-precision vertical movement rather than impact tolerance, the sister TCL series with its steel-ball linear bearing is the better choice. To source an exact replacement, match the 63 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 1/4" PT ports, and the standard S magnet.
Remember that the twin guide rods resist torsion, not gravity; the rod will drift downward if air pressure is lost or the valve is centred. You must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to fail-safe any vertical load. The standard magnet enables position feedback via CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches fitted into the four body slots.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. When supplied with 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 2182 N. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf.
The B07- prefix marks this as an AirTAC automotive-industry dedicated cylinder, though mechanically it is identical to the TCM63X50SH. Regarding end-of-stroke damping, it uses fixed rubber TPU bumpers at each end; there is no adjustable air cushion or cushion screw to set.
