The AirTAC Airtac JSI Series Standard Cylinder JSI40X125S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 125mm stroke, G1/4 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.
Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 40 mm bore JIS-standard profile cylinder is purposefully shorter and more compact than a same-bore ISO 15552 unit, saving valuable machine space. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel omits external rods to resist wear, while a two-way piston seal retains grease for long, low-friction life. A built-in piston magnet is included, allowing CMSE or DMSE electronic switches to drop directly into the side grooves for position detection.
At 0.5 MPa you can plan for roughly 377 N of real work, which translates to lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The G1/4 air port feeds the 16 mm carbon steel rod, and adjustable 20.5 mm air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston smoothly across its 125 mm travel at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.

Actuates a routing flap on a packaging conveyor, using the 125 mm stroke to redirect cartons into a secondary lane with reliable 528 N pull force.
Pushes machined aluminum components out of a CNC fixture, where the compact profile saves space and the 628 N push easily clears the part.
Moves a pneumatic label applicator down onto containers, lifting about 32 kg safely with a 2:1 margin while the -S magnet confirms the press position.
This 40 mm bore hits a practical middle ground, but sizing both ways helps confirm the fit: step down to a 32 mm bore for lighter 402 N tasks, or move up to a 50 mm bore if you need 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSE or DMSE position sensing; a non-S variant cannot accept these switches.
Remember that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centered, as the air cushion only decelerates the stroke near the end points rather than locking the load. For vertical or suspended loads that must hold position securely during an air loss event, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
The 40 mm bore features a G1/4 air port and a 16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 thread. It generates 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push and 739 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The JSI series follows JIS standards and uses an extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel without external rods, making it shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552, but offers significant space savings on tight machinery.
