Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X80S
The AirTAC Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X80S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 80mm 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 TCL25X80S
The AirTAC TCL25X80S is a JIS guided twin-rod double-acting cylinder integrating a drive piston between two guide rods within a single body. Because the guide unit itself prevents rotation and carries side load, you do not need to align an external linear rail. The steel-ball linear bearing yields low-friction, high-precision travel with no stick-slip, making this 25mm bore unit ideal for vertical lifts and accurate high-cycle duties. It delivers 245N of push at 0.5MPa.
With an 80mm stroke, this configuration generates 245N push and 189N pull at 0.5MPa, rising to 344N push at 0.7MPa. The twin-rod design holds a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.06°, keeping a gripper or blade square under an off-centre load. A fixed TPU bumper dampens the stop at each end, as there is no adjustable air cushion. The standard built-in magnet works with CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches across four sensor slots.

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 TCL25X80S Is Used
Vertical Panel Lift
Delivering 245N of push at 0.5MPa, the low-friction steel-ball bearing lifts a 25mm off-centre panel without stick-slip, while the ±0.06° anti-rotation tolerance keeps the carriage perfectly level.
Welding-Fixture Actuation
Holding a welding head steady against side load, the twin guide rods absorb the radial force so the Ø12 rod can thrust accurately without needing a separate external slide.
Heavy Pallet Gate Stop
Using the 344N push force at 0.7MPa, this cylinder halts a moving pallet on a conveyor line, relying on the integrated guide to withstand the moment load without twisting.
Is the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL25X80S the Right Cylinder?
If you require less force, the neighbouring Ø20 bore provides roughly 157N of push at 0.5MPa, whereas stepping up to the Ø32 bore yields about 402N. Choose the sibling TCM series with its brass sliding bearing if your application involves heavy impacts or dusty radial-load environments. The 1/8" port and Ø12 piston rod are fixed by this bore. To replace this unit, specify bore 25, stroke 80, PT thread, and the standard S magnet. Note that a guided cylinder will not hold a load if air pressure drops; the rod drifts, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for fail-safe positioning.
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 TCL25X80S FAQ
At 0.5MPa it provides 245N of push and 189N of pull. Raising the pressure to 0.7MPa yields 344N of push. The maximum theoretical force is 50kgf at 1.0MPa.
No, stroke ends are damped by fixed elastomer pads rather than an adjustable cushion. The moulded rubber bumper absorbs the stop at both ends, meaning there is no air-cushion screw to set.
