Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN10X70SH
The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN10X70SH 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 TN10X70SH
The TN10X70SH is a double-acting twin-rod cylinder: two parallel rods on one shared plate keep the plate from rotating under load and resist bending and twisting, so the load mounts straight onto the plate. With a 10 mm bore and 70 mm stroke it produces a theoretical push thrust of about 39.3 N at 0.5 MPa (lower on the pull side), fitting light pushing, clamping and positioning work. An external front bumper cushions end-of-stroke impact and doubles as an adjustable stroke setter over -5 to 0 mm.
This is a genuine AirTAC part to the TN enterprise standard (bores 10/16/20/25/32 mm, PT threads only), with a magnet fitted as standard and magnetic-switch slots around the body. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa and -20 to 70 C. The trailing H suffix denotes an additional variant: confirm its exact meaning, plus 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
Bore sets the force: this 10 mm bore gives about 39.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, so move to 16/20/25/32 mm for heavier loads. TN is the enterprise-standard series with PT thread only; TR is the JIS-series twin-rod offering PT, G or NPT threads plus a precise guide grade with higher non-rotating accuracy, low rod-end deflection and a lengthening sliding-support guide needing no added lubricant. Pick the stroke from the bore's stroke table and avoid over-long strokes beyond the short-cover design. The H suffix should be confirmed with us or the datasheet, as should allowable side load (published as curves) and dimensions.
Applications
Fixture clamp on a machining jig
The non-rotating twin-rod plate clamps small workpieces evenly in a drilling or assembly jig, with the adjustable bumper taking the shock out of each clamp cycle.
Small parts lift at a hopper gate
Raises and lowers a light gate or chute plate in a parts-feeding station; the twin rods stop the plate twisting as it travels through its 70 mm stroke.
Press-fit assist for light inserts
Applies the 10 mm bore's light push force to seat small inserts or caps, with the bumper cushioning the end of each pressing stroke.
FAQ
What does the H at the end of TN10X70SH mean, and which thread does it use?
The core code decodes as a TN-series twin-rod cylinder, 10 mm bore, 70 mm stroke, magnet fitted as standard, PT thread (TN offers PT only). The trailing H is an additional variant indicator not covered by the base decode, so confirm its exact meaning from the datasheet or with us before ordering.
How does the bumper work at the end of the stroke?
The TN10X70SH uses an external bumper pad at the front - not an air cushion. It absorbs end-of-stroke impact and also adjusts the effective stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range, which is handy for fine-tuning a clamping or stopping position.
