Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL63X35S
The AirTAC Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL63X35S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 35mm 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 ±0.04° of rotation without any external linear guide.

About the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL63X35S
The AirTAC TCL63X35S is a JIS-standard double-acting guided cylinder integrating a drive piston between two guide rods in a single body. It utilizes a steel-ball linear bearing for low-friction, high-precision motion, eliminating the stick-slip often found in plain bearings and making it highly suited for smooth vertical lifts. Generating 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore unit features a Ø20 mm piston rod and 1/4" ports.
Because the twin-rod guide unit carries side load and torque, no external linear slide is required, saving space and alignment effort. The integrated design holds a non-rotating tolerance of ±0.04°, keeping grippers or tooling plates perfectly square under off-centre loads. Stroke termination relies on fixed rubber TPU bumpers at each end, meaning there is no adjustable air cushion screw to set. The standard built-in magnet works with CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches across four sensor slots, and upper plus side port groups allow flexible plumbing without extra elbows.

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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max | 318 kgf | |
Force is set by the bore and piston rod (Ø20 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 TCL63X35S Is Used
Precision Vertical Lift for Packaging
Lifting heavy carton flaps or sealing heads with 1559 N at 0.5 MPa. The steel-ball linear bearing ensures smooth, stick-slip-free travel, while the ±0.04° non-rotating tolerance keeps the lifting plate perfectly level.
Off-Centre Gripper Transfer
Moving heavy metal blanks between conveyors. The twin guide rods absorb the torque from an offset gripper load, leveraging the Ø20 mm piston rod and 1/4" ports to deliver reliable 2182 N thrust at 0.7 MPa.
Welding Fixture Actuation
Positioning heavy welding fixtures with high cycle accuracy. The integrated body removes the need for a separate linear guide, and the standard magnet allows DS1 electronic switches to track rod position in any of the four slots.
Is the Airtac TCL Triple Axis Cylinder TCL63X35S the Right Cylinder?
Choosing this 63 mm bore yields 1559 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa. If you need slightly less force, the adjacent Ø50 bore provides 982 N of push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the Ø80 bore delivers 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. Consider the sibling TCM series with its brass sliding bearing if your application involves severe impact loads or dusty environments requiring heavy radial-load duty.
Remember that air pressure drives both extension and retraction, so dropping air or centering the control valve will let the rod drift—the guide prevents rotation but does not resist gravity. For a fail-safe hold, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. When requesting a replacement, specify the bore, 35 mm stroke, 1/4" port size, PT thread form, and the standard S magnet.
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 TCL63X35S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this double-acting cylinder generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N. The maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 318 kgf.
No, there is no adjustable air cushion screw. Instead, each end of the cylinder uses a fixed rubber TPU bumper to soften the impact at the end of travel. The operating speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
