The AirTAC Airtac TN Double Axis Double Rod Cylinder TN32X170S is a genuine TN twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder, 32 mm bore. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. It delivers about 804.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A front bumper cushions the impact and adjusts the stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range.
The TN32X170S is a double-acting twin-rod cylinder whose two parallel rods share one plate: the load mounts without rotating, and the plate resists bending and twisting across the 170 mm stroke. The 32 mm bore provides a theoretical push thrust of 804.2 N at 0.5 MPa (both rods combined; push is higher than pull) on 40 um filtered air, at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-500 mm/s and -20 to 70 C. An external front bumper cushions impact and adjusts the effective stroke over -5 to 0 mm.
This is a genuine AirTAC part to the enterprise-standard TN series. The magnet is fitted as standard with magnetic-switch slots around the body, ports are 1/8 in., and mounting is embedded fixed style with three-side holes on the plate and multi-face holes on the body. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). We confirm exact dimensions and sizing for this stroke 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.
Thrust first: 804.2 N theoretical push at 0.5 MPa on this 32 mm bore, with smaller 10-25 mm bores available for lighter duties. TN is the enterprise-standard series and offers PT threads only; if the machine needs G or NPT ports, or the higher non-rotating precision, low rod-end deflection and lengthening sliding-support guide of the JIS-standard TR (with two groups of ports, one each side), spec TR instead. The 170 mm stroke must sit within the bore's stroke table, and the short-cover caution applies to over-long strokes - check it from the datasheet. Side-load capability is published only as curves, so send us the application and we will confirm.
Feeds a small slide or gate on automated machinery; the twin rods carry the plate straight through the 170 mm stroke without the plate rotating under load.
Applies holding force to parts seated in a nest or jig; the anti-rotation plate keeps clamp faces aligned, and the bumper takes the sting out of contact.
Lifts and lowers light fixtures, sensors or part trays; two rods share the load so the plate rises evenly, with the magnet giving end-of-stroke switching.
Both are twin-rod double-acting cylinders, but TN is the enterprise-standard series with PT threads only, while TR is the JIS-standard guide-grade version with PT, G and NPT options, higher non-rotating accuracy, low rod-end deflection, a lengthening sliding-support guide that needs no added lubricant, and ports on both sides. If you only need PT and standard guidance, this TN32X170S is the simpler choice.
Yes - the plate is meant to take the load directly, since two rods on one shared plate resist twisting and let it mount without rotating. Allowable side load and deflection are published only as curves rather than single figures, and overall dimensions vary by stroke, so confirm both from the datasheet or with us before finalizing the design.
