The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN20X50SH 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.
A twin-rod double-acting cylinder uses two parallel rods on one shared plate so the load moves without rotating and resists bending and twisting. With a 20mm bore and 50mm stroke, this model delivers a theoretical push thrust of 314.2 N at 0.5 MPa. An external bumper cushions impact and lets you adjust the effective stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.
This is a genuine AirTAC TN-series part built to the enterprise standard with PT threading. A magnet is standard on every unit, with switch slots moulded around the body. We confirm overall 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.
Bore 20mm gives a theoretical push thrust of 314.2 N at 0.5 MPa; pull thrust is lower. The TN series is the enterprise standard with PT thread only. If you need JIS standard with G or NPT thread options plus a precise lengthening guide for higher non-rotating accuracy, consider the TR series instead. Choose the 50mm stroke within the bore 20 stroke table; avoid over-long strokes on this short-cover design. We help you confirm allowable side-load from the datasheet.
Pushes machined parts off a belt line at the end of a station; the twin rods keep the pusher plate flat so parts eject cleanly without skewing.
Holds a casting flat against a fixture for drilling; anti-rotation rods prevent the clamp arm from twisting under load so the part stays aligned.
Stops incoming pallets at an assembly station; the twin-rod design absorbs side impact without rod deflection so the stop face stays square.
At 0.5 MPa the theoretical push thrust is 314.2 N; the pull figure is lower. Operating pressure for bore 20 is 0.15 to 1.0 MPa. We confirm your exact force needs from the datasheet.
No. It uses an external bumper that cushions impact and adjusts the effective stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range. It is not an air cushion. Full details are in the datasheet.
