The AirTAC Airtac JSI Series Standard Cylinder JSI40X15S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 15mm 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.
Generating 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard profile cylinder saves valuable space by being shorter than an ISO 15552 unit of the same 40 mm bore. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel omits external rods to resist wear, while the two-way piston seal retains grease for a long, low-friction service life. Equipped with a G1/4 port and an M14x1.5 rod thread, it operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, CMSE or DMSE position switches drop directly into the side sensor grooves. For real-world sizing, plan for about 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Ideal for locking small aluminum extrusions in a machining fixture, utilizing the 15 mm stroke and 528 N pull force at 0.5 MPa for secure holding.
Provides a fast 30-800 mm/s ejection punch for plastic molded parts off an assembly conveyor, fitting neatly into tight machine cells.
Powers a compact sorting flap on a packaging line, where the built-in -S magnet confirms flap position via DMSE sensors in the side groove.
If 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa is too much, the smaller JSI32 bore drops to 402 N; if you need more power, the JSI50 steps up to 982 N. Since this is a 15 mm stroke, side-load bending risks are minimal, but always ensure rigid mounting using LB foot, FA/FB flange, or TC trunnion brackets. Note that the air cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends and do not act as a brake; if the air supply drops, the rod will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N push and 528 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it delivers 879 N push and 739 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the air port is G1/4.
The JSI is a JIS-standard profile cylinder that is shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 40 mm bore, offering a space-saving advantage on tight machines without using external rods.
