The AirTAC Airtac JSI Series Standard Cylinder JSI32X170 is a genuine double acting JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 170mm stroke, G1/8 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 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC JSI32X170 is a double-acting JIS-standard profile cylinder built for tight machinery layouts. Because it uses an extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel instead of external rods, it is notably shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 32 mm bore. The internal two-way piston seal retains grease, ensuring low-friction operation over a long service life.
Plan for roughly 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSE or DMSE position sensors. The unit features a 12 mm carbon steel rod, an M10x1.25 rod-end thread, and a G1/8 air port.

JSI-family variants: JSI (double acting), JSID (double rod), JSIJ (adjustable stroke). Mounting: LB / FA / FB / CA / CB / CR / TC / TCM1 / TCM2. Thread PT (blank) / G.
Pushes lightweight plastic mouldings out of an injection press using 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
Actuates a short 170 mm stroke gate to sort small cartons on a high-speed packaging conveyor line.
Secures electronic PCBs during routing, where the compact 32 mm profile saves valuable fixture space.
If you need less force, there is no smaller JSI bore available, so you would need to look outside the series. Stepping up to the JSI40X170 increases your 0.5 MPa push force to 628 N. Remember that this plain cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; the adjustable 20 mm end cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke limits, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you must hold a load. For this 170 mm stroke, standard LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, TC mounts, or an I/Y/F/U knuckle, will handle the motion without needing external guides.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 402 N push and 345 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 563 N push and 483 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is G1/8.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so CMSE or DMSE switches cannot be used. You would need the JSI32X170-S variant to enable magnetic sensing in the side grooves.
