The AirTAC Airtac TR Twin-Rod Cylinders TR6X50S is a genuine TR twin-rod (double-rod) double-acting cylinder, 6 mm bore. Two parallel rods on one plate resist bending and twisting and let the load mount without rotating. It delivers about 28.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A front bumper cushions the impact and adjusts the stroke over a -5 to 0 mm range. As the JIS guide-grade series it adds high non-rotating precision, a lengthening sliding guide (no added lubricant) and two-side ports.
A twin-rod cylinder uses two parallel rods on one shared plate to resist bending and twisting, so the load moves without rotating. This TR6X50S has a 6mm bore and 50mm stroke - a compact choice for small, precise moves. At 0.5 MPa its push thrust is about 14.1 N. The external bumper cushions end-of-stroke impact and trims the effective stroke over a 0 to 5mm range.
This is a genuine AirTAC part made to JIS standard. Every TR model carries a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing, with switch slots machined around the body. We confirm exact dimensions, rod diameter, 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.
Bore sets thrust: the 6mm bore delivers about 14.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, suited to light loads. The TR series meets JIS standard and adds a precise guide with lengthening sliding support (no added lubricant) and two port groups on both sides for flexible plumbing. Within the 6mm bore table, 50mm is a longer stroke; with the short cover, keep strokes moderate to avoid rod-end deflection. Thread is PT on this model; TR also offers G and NPT. For side-load limits at your stroke, confirm with us from the datasheet.
Lifts thin sheets from a stack into a feed rail; twin rods hold the lift pad level without tilting so the sheet enters the rail squarely every cycle.
Shuttles small electronic components between two test stations; the anti-rotation guide keeps the tooling face aligned so pick-and-place heads index without re-aiming.
Clamps a small workpiece against a fixed rail; the bumper pad trims the clamped position by up to 5mm so the part seats flush against the back stop for repeatable clamping.
Yes. Every model in the TR twin-rod series ships with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing, and magnetic-switch slots are machined around the body. There is no non-magnetic option.
Two parallel rods on a shared plate resist bending and twisting, so the load moves without rotating. The TR6X50S keeps the lift pad level over its 50mm stroke. For allowable side-load and exact dimensions at your mounting setup, confirm from the datasheet.
