The AirTAC Airtac JSI Series Standard Cylinder JSI125X280S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 280mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its no-tie-rod, hard-anodized profile barrel is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore — a space-saver on tight machines.
Generating 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard profile cylinder is built for heavy-duty automation. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel omits external rods, making the unit noticeably shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 125 mm bore. A heterogeneous two-way piston seal retains grease for long, low-friction life, while the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for position sensing.
Because 6136 N is a theoretical maximum, plan for about 3682 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 313 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The G1/2 air port handles the 30-500 mm/s operating speed range, and the integrated magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches to drop directly into the side sensor grooves.

Provides the robust push force needed to eject thick steel blanks from a mechanical press, using the 280 mm stroke to clear the die bed completely.
Separates empty pallets from a magazine stack, leveraging the 313 kg vertical lift equivalent to slide heavy wooden pallets onto an inbound conveyor chain.
Shifts a large injection molding platen into the unload position, relying on the compact JIS profile to fit within tight machine guarding.
At the top of the JSI range, there is no larger standard bore, so if 6136 N at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, you must move to a different cylinder family. Stepping down to the 100 mm bore drops the push force to 3927 N, making this 125 mm model the correct choice when you need roughly 3682 N of safe working load. The 280 mm stroke falls well under the 1500 mm maximum, keeping the assembly rigid without excessive rod overhang.
Note that a standard pneumatic cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the piston will drift, as the adjustable 33 mm air cushions only decelerate the stroke near the end points. For suspended or vertical loads, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet on this SKU enables CMSE/DMSE sensors for end-of-stroke confirmation.
Quick checklist
This 125 mm bore cylinder features a G1/2 port and an M27x2.0 rod thread. The thrust output is 6136 N push and 5734 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 8590 N push and 8028 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 1251 kgf.
The JSI is a JIS-standard profile cylinder that is shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It uses an extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel without external rods to save machine space while retaining heavy-duty performance.
