Airtac MDD Multi-position Double Rod Cylinder MDD10X10S
The AirTAC Airtac MDD Multi-position Double Rod Cylinder MDD10X10S is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (double rod), 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 MDD Multi-position Double Rod Cylinder MDD10X10S
The MDD10X10S is an AirTAC multi-mount cylinder whose compact square body fixes from 6 directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and mounts side by side to save space. As a double-rod type it has a rod on both ends of a 10 mm bore with a 10 mm stroke, so either side can push or pull; at 0.5 MPa each stroke delivers a theoretical 33.0 N. Cushioning is by bumper, and magnetic-switch slots run around the body.
The trailing S in the code means this SKU carries a magnet for switch detection. It is a genuine AirTAC MD standard (not MK no-rotating) part, double acting, with PT thread on M5x0.8 ports. Ask us to confirm dimensions and sensor sizing from the datasheet.

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
Select this 10 mm bore double-rod model when you need up to 33.0 N theoretical thrust per side at 0.5 MPa and position detection - the S suffix supplies the magnet; the plain MDD10X10 does without. MDD keeps rotation unprevented within the standard MD family; choose MK if the rod must not turn. The 10 mm stroke is comfortably within the 35 mm maximum for a double-acting 10 mm bore, and the short covers reward keeping strokes short. Thread is PT standard with G optional; ports are M5x0.8.
Applications
Cycling ejection on assembly stations
End-of-stroke switches read the magnet on both rods, so the controller verifies that parts were ejected and that the return stopper reset before the next cycle starts.
Two-sided test fixture clamp
One 10 mm double-rod cylinder clamps a small PCB carrier from both faces in an in-circuit test jig, its side-by-side body packed between other actuators on a dense plate.
Batch counter kicker
Fixed under a mini conveyor, the double rod kicks counted parts off the lane while the opposite rod holds back the following piece, with switches confirming each kick.
FAQ
What does the S in MDD10X10S add?
The trailing S means this cylinder is built with a magnet, letting magnetic proximity switches detect piston position through the switch slots around the body. The identical MDD10X10 without the S has no magnet. Magnets are optional on the MD/MK range - order the version your controls scheme needs.
How long a stroke can a 10 mm bore multi-mount cylinder take?
For double-acting 10 mm bores, strokes run up to 35 mm, and the short covers favour keeping the stroke modest for stability. This SKU is fixed at a 10 mm stroke. For exact body dimensions at your stroke and for side-load limits, confirm from the datasheet.
