Airtac TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S
The AirTAC Airtac TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 200mm stroke on twin guide rods. Its integrated brass sliding bearing gives high radial-load and impact resistance — about double the horizontal impact tolerance of a plain cylinder, holding the tool square to ±0.05° of rotation without any external linear guide.

About the Airtac TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S
The AirTAC TCM63X200-S is a JIS-standard twin-rod guided cylinder with a brass sliding bearing, engineered for heavy-duty radial loads and high torque. A drive piston moves between two integrated guide rods, eliminating the need for an external linear rail and the alignment work that goes with it. Delivering 1559 N of push at 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore unit is built for demanding industrial transfer and gating tasks.
The brass sliding bearing shrugs off dust, weld spatter, and hard knocks, offering roughly double the horizontal impact resistance of a plain cylinder where a steel-ball guide would jam. It maintains a non-rotating accuracy of ±0.05°, keeping blades or grippers square under offset loads. Stroke termination relies on fixed TPU rubber pads at each end, as there is no adjustable air cushion. A standard built-in magnet enables position feedback via CS1 reed or DS1 electronic switches in the four sensor grooves.

| 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 | ±0.05° (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 (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 TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S Is Used
Pallet Transfer Line Stop
Halting heavy pallets on a dusty transfer line is easy with the 1559 N push force. The brass sliding bearing tolerates grit and hard end-impacts that would destroy a ball guide.
Foundry Sand Mould Press
Pressing sand moulds exposes the cylinder to abrasive dust and heat. The twin guide rods handle the offset load, while the brass sleeve shrugs off contamination without jamming.
Heavy Off-Centre Gripper Slide
Moving a massive part via an offset gripper creates high torque. The ±0.05° non-rotating tolerance keeps the gripper square, and the Ø20 piston rod handles the 2182 N peak thrust.
Is the Airtac TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S the Right Cylinder?
This 63 mm bore generates 1559 N push (1402 N pull) at 0.5 MPa and 2182 N at 0.7 MPa. If you need slightly less force, the neighbouring Ø50 bore yields 982 N of push. For heavier pushing, the Ø80 bore provides 2513 N. Choose the sister TCL series with its steel-ball linear bearing instead if your application demands low-friction movement or high-precision vertical lifting rather than rugged impact tolerance.
The 200 mm stroke is within standard limits. The 1/4" port size is fixed by the bore, and the thread is PT (tapered) by default. Remember that this cylinder will not hold a load if air pressure drops; the rod drifts, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated 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 TCM Triple Axis Cylinder TCM63X200-S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of push and 1402 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 2182 N. The theoretical maximum force is 318 kgf.
No. Each end of the stroke is stopped by fixed rubber TPU bumpers. The TC series does not use an adjustable air cushion or cushion screw, prioritizing a compact impact-tolerant design for heavy radial loads.
