The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN16X125-S is a genuine TN twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder, 16 mm bore. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. It delivers about 201.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A front bumper cushions the impact and adjusts the stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.
A twin-rod double-acting cylinder uses two parallel rods on one shared piston plate so the load moves without rotating. The AirTAC TN16X125S pairs a 16 mm bore with a 125 mm stroke, giving a 0.5 MPa push thrust of 201.1 N on the push side. An external bumper cushions impact and trims stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.
This is a genuine AirTAC part built to the enterprise standard with PT thread only. Every unit ships magnet-fitted with switch slots around the body. We confirm 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.
Choose this 16 mm bore when 201.1 N push at 0.5 MPa suits the job; push thrust always exceeds pull. TN follows the enterprise standard with PT thread only - for JIS mounting, precise guide accuracy, two-side ports, or G/NPT threads, look at the TR series instead. Stroke 125 mm is within the bore 16 table; keep strokes moderate to avoid excess rod-end deflection on the short-cover body. We can confirm allowable side load from the datasheet for your application.
Rejects or pushes product off a conveyor belt at a fixed 125 mm travel, using the twin rods to keep the pusher face parallel and prevent product skewing.
Holds a workpiece flat against a fixture during machining, where the twin rods resist the bending moment from the cutting force and keep the clamp face square.
Raises a small lift plate 125 mm to present a part to a downstream station; the parallel rods stop the plate from tilting as it carries an off-center load.
At 0.5 MPa the TN16X125S delivers about 201.1 N on the push side; pull thrust is lower because the rods subtract piston area. Confirm the pull value from the datasheet if your application needs it.
Twin rods resist bending and twisting far better than a single-rod unit, but every bore has published side-load curves. We confirm allowable side load and rod-end deflection from the datasheet so you can size correctly.
