Airtac JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S
The AirTAC JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S 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.

About the Airtac JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S
Delivering 528 N of equal force in both directions at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting AirTAC cylinder uses a twin-rod design where a single piston drives a shaft out of both end covers. Because both faces use the identical rod-side area, push and pull outputs match exactly. This symmetric load path resists torsional twist, making the unit ideal for non-rotating guidance tasks or driving two tools at once. It breathes through a G1/4 port and carries a built-in magnet for position sensing.
Built to JIS standards with an extruded hard-anodized aluminum profile barrel, it is noticeably shorter and more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same 40 mm bore. The 160 mm stroke falls well within standard limits, and adjustable air cushions at each end tame end-of-stroke impacts.

Where the Airtac JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S Is Used
Dual-End Transfer Shutters
Uses the shaft protruding from both covers to open and close material gates simultaneously on opposite sides of a machine, ensuring perfectly synchronized material flow.
Anti-Rotation Forming Press
The twin-rod construction prevents piston twist during vertical stamping operations, maintaining precise alignment of the upper and lower dies without needing external linear bearings.
Symmetric Diverting Arm
Mounts a diverter blade to the rear rod extension to push products off a belt while the front rod simultaneously retracts a guide rail, balancing the load path for smooth cycling.
Is the Airtac JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to a 32 mm version drops the equal-both-ways force to 345 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 50 mm bore raises it to 825 N. Choose the double-rod architecture when your application demands anti-rotation stability, twin tooling on one axis, a symmetric load distribution, or back-end sensor cam tracking. Mounting options include FA, LB, TC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. The S suffix means a piston magnet is installed, allowing CMSE or DMSE switches to slot directly into the barrel grooves. For this 160 mm stroke, ensure external load guides are used to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod seals.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Set cushions to minimum, then release gradually.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB/FA/FB/CA/CB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X160S FAQ
Because the rod passes through both covers, force is equal in both directions. It generates 528 N at 0.5 MPa and 739 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 108 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa, runs at 30-800 mm/s, and uses a G1/4 port with a 20.5 mm adjustable cushion at each end.
No, a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushions only decelerate near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve to hold a load. The S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, allowing CMSE or DMSE reed or electronic switches to be fitted into the side grooves for precise position detection.
