Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN20X10S
The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN20X10S is a genuine TN twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder, 20 mm bore. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. It delivers about 314.2 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 TN20X10S
A twin-rod cylinder runs two parallel rods on one shared plate so the load resists bending and twisting and moves without rotating. The TN20X10-S has a 20mm bore and 10mm stroke; at 0.5 MPa its push thrust is about 314.2 N and the pull side is lower. Impact is absorbed by an adjustable bumper that also trims the stroke over -5 to 0 mm; it is not an air cushion.
This is a genuine AirTAC part built to the enterprise standard with PT thread only. The magnet is standard across the whole series - there is no non-magnetic option. We confirm dimensions and sizing details 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
Match the bore to the thrust your task needs: the 20mm bore gives about 314.2 N push at 0.5 MPa (less on pull). TN is the enterprise standard with PT thread only; TR adds the JIS standard, G/NPT thread choices, and a precise guide for higher non-rotating accuracy. With a 10mm stroke you are well inside the safe range - the short cover cautions against over-long strokes. Route side-load questions to us and we will confirm from the datasheet.
Applications
Workpiece Clamp
Clamps aluminum brackets in a CNC milling fixture. The short 10mm stroke snaps the clamp jaw shut fast while the twin rods hold the clamping face parallel under cutting load.
Feed End Stop
Stops a strip-feed at a precise position in a stamping press. The twin-rod design prevents the stop finger from rotating so the strip indexes to the same spot every cycle.
Short-Stroke Form Press
Presses a small bearing cover into a housing with a 10mm stroke. The twin rods resist any angular load from the press fit so the cover seats flat without cocking.
FAQ
Is the magnet optional on the TN20X10-S?
No - the magnet is standard across the whole TN series; there is no non-magnetic option. Magnetic-switch slots are built into the body.
What is the benefit of a twin-rod design for a 10mm stroke?
Two parallel rods on one shared plate resist bending and twisting so the load moves without rotating - useful for short-stroke clamping or pressing where stability matters. Side-load limits are confirmed from the datasheet.
