Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN20X5S
The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN20X5S 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 TN20X5S
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 a compact 5mm stroke, this model still delivers a theoretical push thrust of 314.2 N at 0.5 MPa. An external bumper cushions impact and adjusts 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 around the body. 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
Bore 20mm gives a theoretical push thrust of 314.2 N at 0.5 MPa; pull is lower. TN is the enterprise standard with PT thread only. If you need JIS standard, G or NPT threads, or a precise lengthening guide for higher non-rotating accuracy, look at the TR series. Choose the 5mm stroke within the bore 20 stroke table; the short 5mm stroke suits compact stopping and clamping jobs. We help confirm allowable side-load from the datasheet.
Applications
Micro Stopper
Stops small trays at an inspection station with a 5mm bump; the twin rods hold the stop pin square so trays register consistently for camera checks.
Hold-Down Clamp
Presses a thin label onto a product with a short 5mm stroke; the twin rods prevent the pad from rotating so the label lands flat every time.
Ejector Pin
Ejects a small molded part from a fixture with a 5mm tap; twin rods keep the ejector face parallel so the part clears the mold without catching.
FAQ
Is the magnet optional on this cylinder?
No. A magnet is standard on every TN-series unit, with magnetic-switch slots around the body. There is no non-magnetic option.
Can I use the 5mm stroke for side-loaded stopping?
The twin rods resist side load and prevent rotation, but allowable side-load is published only as curves. We confirm the specific values from the datasheet for your application.
