The AirTAC JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160 is a genuine double acting, double rod JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 160mm 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 528 N of equal thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS profile cylinder uses a single piston with a rod exiting each end. The symmetric layout prevents rotation and provides a stable load path, while the extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel keeps the unit more compact and shorter than a same-bore ISO 15552 cylinder. It features a G1/4 port and an M14x1.5 rod thread.
The 160 mm stroke operates at 30-800 mm/s, and adjustable 20.5 mm air cushions at both ends decelerate the payload smoothly. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors.

| 0.7 MPa | 739 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 kgf | |
Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

Drives two synchronized gripping jaws from opposite rod ends to transfer parts between stations without rotational twist.
Balances a vertical lifting plate equally on both sides, preventing binding and ensuring smooth elevation in packaging lines.
Uses the rear rod extension to trigger a mechanical limit cam while the front rod performs the stamping operation.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 345 N, while stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 825 N of equal force at 0.5 MPa. The double-rod design is the right call when your application demands anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling driven from both ends, or a symmetric load path. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the stroke is 160 mm, side-load guidance remains manageable, but for any stroke over 300 mm you should add external load guides to prevent bearing wear. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a load.
Quick checklist
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the push and pull forces are equal at 528 N at 0.5 MPa and 739 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 108 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and it uses a G1/4 air port.
No, this specific SKU does not have a magnet and cannot accept CMSE or DMSE sensors. You would need the -S variant of this cylinder to enable magnetic position sensing.
