Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN10X10S
The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN10X10S is a genuine TN twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder, 10 mm bore. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. It delivers about 78.6 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A front bumper cushions the impact and adjusts the stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.

About the Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN10X10S
The TN10X10-S is a double-acting twin-rod cylinder: two parallel rods on one shared plate keep the plate from rotating, so the load mounts directly and resists bending and twisting. With a 10 mm bore and a short 10 mm stroke, it delivers about 39.3 N of push thrust at 0.5 MPa and suits compact, low-travel positioning jobs. The front bumper is not an air cushion; it is an external pad that both cushions impact and adjusts the effective stroke over -5 to 0 mm.
This is a genuine AirTAC part in the TN series, built to the ENTERPRISE standard with PT ports only. A magnet is fitted as standard on every TN cylinder, with magnetic-switch slots around the aluminium-alloy body. Operating range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (29-145 psi) on filtered air, and we can confirm overall dimensions and sizing from the datasheet on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TN/TR twin-rod data. Operating pressure is set by bore (0.2 MPa minimum on the 6 and 10 mm bores). The front cover and piston are short, so avoid an over-long stroke. Overall dimensions vary per stroke and allowable side-load is published as curves — ask us and we confirm from the datasheet.
How to choose
Choose the 10 mm bore when your load needs roughly 39.3 N of push thrust at 0.5 MPa; larger TN bores (16, 20, 25, 32) give more thrust if you need it. The 10 mm stroke sits within the TN bore-10 stroke table; keep strokes modest, since over-long twin-rod strokes risk short-covering the rods and lose guide stiffness. The TN series is the ENTERPRISE standard with PT thread only; if you need G or NPT ports or a higher-precision guide (the JIS-standard TR with a lengthening sliding-support guide and two groups of ports), pick a TR model instead. The trailing S means the magnet is fitted as standard; there is no non-magnetic option. For allowable side-load figures, check with us and the published curves.
Applications
Linear pusher on a small assembly line
Mounted beside a mini conveyor, the twin rods advance a fixture plate squarely to nudge parts into a nest. The non-rotating plate keeps the push face aligned, and the bumper cushions contact while trimming the last few millimetres of stroke.
Compact clamp for jigs and fixtures
The shared plate clamps a workpiece without twisting under off-centre loads, holding light brackets square during a screwdriving or gluing step. The 10 mm stroke suits thin parts, and switch slots let a PLC confirm clamp position.
Stopper gate for part flow
Fitted under a roller conveyor lane, the cylinder raises a small stop blade to hold incoming parts. Twin rods resist the twisting the blade would otherwise impose, and the bumper absorbs the part's arrival impact.
FAQ
What does the S at the end of TN10X10-S mean, and is a non-magnetic version available?
S indicates the position magnet, and on the TN series the magnet is fitted as standard on every model, with magnetic-switch slots around the body. There is no non-magnetic option to choose, so you order TN10X10-S exactly as coded: 10 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, PT ports (the blank thread position), since TN is PT only.
How does the bumper work, and can I mount a side load on the rods?
The front bumper is an external pad that cushions impact at stroke end and also adjusts the effective stroke over -5 to 0 mm; it is not an air cushion. The twin rods give the plate good resistance to bending and twisting, but allowable side load and deflection are published only as curves, so confirm your side-load case and overall dimensions from the datasheet with us before finalising the design.
