Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S
The AirTAC Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 200mm stroke on twin guide rods. Its integrated steel-ball linear bearing gives low-friction, high-precision travel — well suited to vertical lifts and high-load, high-accuracy moves, holding the tool square to ±0.06° of rotation without any external linear guide.

About the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S
The AirTAC TCL25X200-S is a JIS-standard twin-rod guided cylinder featuring a low-friction steel-ball linear bearing. A central drive piston runs between two guide rods in a single integrated body, eliminating the need for an external linear slide. Delivering 245 N of push and 189 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore, 200 mm stroke unit is built for double-acting operation.
The integrated guide delivers a tight ±0.06° non-rotating tolerance, keeping grippers or tooling plates perfectly square under offset loads. It uses a Ø12 mm piston rod and 1/8" ports. Stroke ends are damped by fixed elastomer pads rather than an adjustable cushion. The standard built-in magnet works with CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches across four sensor slots, while two independent upper and side port groups let you route air from whichever face is clear.

| Port size | 1/8" |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Non-rotating tolerance | ±0.06° (retracted) |

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TCL/TCM series datasheet (JIS standard). Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every TC model ships with a built-in magnet for sensor switches.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 189 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | — |
| Max | 50 kgf | |
Force is set by the bore and piston rod (Ø12 mm); the twin guide rods carry side load and torque, not thrust. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

Where the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S Is Used
Vertical Panel Lift
Lifts light panels smoothly through 200 mm of travel. The steel-ball linear bearing prevents stick-slip on the upward cycle, while 245 N of push handles the offset weight.
Off-Centre Gripper Transfer
Transfers parts via an offset gripper without twisting. The ±0.06° non-rotating accuracy keeps the jaws parallel, absorbing the moment load from the shifted mass.
Welding Fixture Actuation
Positions a welding clamp with high repeatability. The integrated twin-rod body removes the alignment work of matching a separate cylinder to a rail, saving assembly time.
Is the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S the Right Cylinder?
This 25 mm bore generates roughly 245 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, the Ø20 bore provides about 157 N of push; stepping up to the Ø32 bore yields 402 N. Choose the sibling TCM series with its brass sliding bearing if your application involves heavy impacts or dusty radial loads. To replace this unit, match the 25 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, 1/8" port, PT thread, and standard S magnet. Note that a TC will not hold a load if air pressure drops, as the guide resists rotation rather than gravity, so add an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Side load / torque the guide must carry
- ✓ TCL (precision, low friction) vs TCM (impact, radial load)
- ✓ Stroke & mounting face (top / bottom / rear)
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check The guide unit takes side load & torque — but do not exceed the max safe load/torque for your stroke.
- check Mount from the top, bottom (screw or T-slot) or rear face; use the precision locating holes.
- check Do not disassemble the fixing block or guide unit — factory-set precision.
- check Fit CS1 / DS1 magnetic switches in the four sensor slots as needed.
Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X200-S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245 N of push and 189 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa the push increases to 344 N. The maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, TC series cylinders do not use an adjustable air cushion. Each end lands on a fixed TPU bumper that softens the stop. You must rely on external flow controls to regulate the end-of-stroke speed.
