Airtac MD Multi-Position Clamping Cylinder MD10X15H
The AirTAC MD Multi-Position Clamping Cylinder MD10X15H is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (double acting), 10 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact.

About the Airtac MD Multi-Position Clamping Cylinder MD10X15H
The AirTAC MD series is a compact square-body multi-mount cylinder that fixes from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and mounts side by side with identical units to save panel space. This MD10X15H is the standard double-acting version with a 10 mm bore and 15 mm stroke, suited to light clamping, positioning and stopping work, with a theoretical push of about 39.3 N at 0.5 MPa. Cushioning is a bumper, magnetic-switch slots run around the body, and the medium is air filtered to 40 um.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the MD family, so the piston rod is free to rotate - choose the MK family instead if you need no-rotating operation. As the SKU carries no S suffix, this model is supplied without a magnet. We will confirm the full code breakdown and exact dimensions or sizing from the AirTAC datasheet on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MD/MK multi-mount data. The front cover and piston are short, so avoid an over-long stroke. An optional high-temperature seal material extends the range to 0 to 150 C. 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 10 in the double-acting MD family gives a theoretical 39.3 N push and 33.0 N pull at 0.5 MPa, over an operating range of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-500 mm/s. Choose MD if rod rotation is acceptable, or MK if it must be prevented; acting choices are double, single push, single pull, double rod and adjustable stroke. Double-acting bore 10 strokes run up to 35 mm, so 15 mm fits the table - keep strokes short, as the compact covers limit how long these cylinders can be built. The magnet is shown by the trailing S, the thread is PT by default or G on request, and ports on bore 10 are M5x0.8. We will confirm side-load limits and the H suffix from the datasheet.
Applications
Small-parts clamping
A 10 mm double-acting multi-mount cylinder clamps light parts in assembly fixtures, fixing from the top or side of a crowded base plate and sitting side by side with twin grip points.
Gate stopper on a small conveyor
Mounted under or beside a miniature conveyor, the cylinder raises a stopper blade to halt small parts; the 6-direction fixing lets it bolt into tight framing.
Jig positioning
In a drilling or pressing jig, this compact cylinder advances a locator pin into position, with magnetic-switch slots around the body for end-of-stroke sensing slots.
FAQ
How much force does the 10 mm bore of this MD10X15H produce?
At 0.5 MPa the theoretical push is about 39.3 N and the pull about 33.0 N, with an operating range of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Cushioning is a bumper. Confirm the exact sizing for your job from the datasheet or ask us.
Can I mount this cylinder from any face of the body?
Yes. As a multi-mount cylinder it fixes from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and several units can sit side by side to save space. Allowable side-load is not quoted here; confirm it from the datasheet or contact us.
