The AirTAC Airtac JSI Series Standard Cylinder JSI40X390S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 390mm 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 JIS-standard profile cylinder saves valuable machine space by being noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 40 mm bore. The extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel features no external rods to resist wear, while the two-way piston seal retains grease for long, low-friction life. Equipped with a G1/4 port and a 390 mm stroke, it also includes a built-in magnet for position sensing.
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. The integrated -S magnet allows CMSE or DMSE switches to drop directly into the side grooves for precise end-of-stroke detection. If your application requires opposing or adjustable movements, explore the related JSID double-rod or JSIJ adjustable-stroke variants.

Extends 390 mm to push corrugated cartons cleanly across a packaging conveyor using 628 N of 0.5 MPa thrust.
Raises lightweight plastic bins between machinery tiers, safely handling roughly 32 kg loads with a 2:1 margin.
Opens and closes long-reach machine safety gates where the compact JIS profile saves critical floor space.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. Because this model features a 390 mm stroke, external guides are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending and manage side loads during long extensions. The included -S magnet pairs perfectly with CMSE or DMSE sensors for drop-in switching.
Remember that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end caps and does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops or the valve centers, the piston will drift; to safely hold a suspended load, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a G1/4 port and generates 628 N push / 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879 N push / 739 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The piston rod is 16 mm with an M14x1.5 thread, and it operates at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s.
The JSI is a JIS-standard profile cylinder that is shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, giving you a space-saving footprint. It is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552, but it utilizes an extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel with no external rods for a clean, resilient build.
