The AirTAC JSID Double Rod Cylinder JSID40X250 is a genuine double acting, double rod JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 250mm 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 thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC JSID40X250 uses a twin-rod layout where a single piston drives a shaft out both covers. This symmetric load path resists torsion and lets you mount tooling or a sensor cam at the back end. The hard-anodized extruded aluminum barrel keeps the body shorter than an equivalent ISO 15552 unit, and the G1/4 porting matches the 40 mm bore.
With a 250 mm stroke, this non-magnetic SKU cannot host position sensors, so choose the -S variant if you need CMSE or DMSE switches. The adjustable air cushions at each end only decelerate the piston near travel limits; they will not hold a load on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for vertical safety.

Double-rod: the rod passes through both covers, so output force is equal in both directions.

Drives two opposing grippers simultaneously from one piston, keeping pick-and-place timing perfectly synchronized without torsional twist.
Pushes a workpiece from the front while the rear rod moves an identical distance to trip a mechanical cam, maintaining a balanced load path.
Sizing this 40 mm bore against its neighbors shows a clear step: the 32 mm bore yields 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa, while the 50 mm bore jumps to 825 N. The JSID40X250 hits the sweet spot at 528 N both ways. A double-rod design is the right call when you need anti-rotation guidance, twin tooling driven from one piston, or a symmetric load path. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because this is a plain SKU without a magnet, it cannot take sensors, but the -S version adds CMSE/DMSE compatibility. For this 250 mm stroke, ensure you provide an external guide to absorb any side-load forces.
Quick checklist
Because the rod exits both ends, force is equal in both directions: 528 N at 0.5 MPa and 739 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum is 108 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/4 air port.
No. The adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near the end of stroke and do not act as a brake. If you need to hold a load against gravity or during air loss, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
