The AirTAC Airtac MDD Multi-position Double Rod Cylinder MDD25X25S is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (double rod), 25 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact.
The MDD25X25S is an AirTAC MD-series multi-mount cylinder: a compact square body that can be fixed from 6 directions (front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and mounted side by side with other cylinders to save space. This version is double acting with a double rod, so the piston rod extends from both ends of the body - useful for synchronized action on two sides or driving a workpiece from either end. At the 25 mm bore the theoretical thrust is 245.4 N at 0.5 MPa on the full-piston side and 206.2 N on the rod side, with cushioning provided by a bumper. Running on air filtered to 40 um, it handles 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speeds of 30-500 mm/s and -20 to 70 C.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the standard MD family (not the no-rotating MK family). The trailing S in the model code means this SKU carries a built-in magnet for magnetic-switch detection. Dimensions are stroke-specific, so we confirm exact 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.
Choose the 25 mm bore when you need around 245.4 N of theoretical thrust at 0.5 MPa in a compact package; the double-rod MD format gives you a rod on both ends, unlike a standard MD. The 25 mm stroke sits comfortably within the 60 mm maximum for this bore - the short square covers favour modest strokes, so avoid stretching beyond the catalogue range. The trailing S means magnet is included on this SKU; the PT thread option is standard here, with G available on request. Route side-load questions to us so we can check the datasheet for your setup.
The double rod clamps from both ends of the body at once, so a fixture plate can grip a small part from either side without adding a second cylinder.
Side-by-side mounting lets two MDD cylinders sit flush on the same jig plate, each indexing a locating pin from opposite sides of the workpiece.
With rods on both ends, one cylinder can eject a part on one stroke side and receive it on the other in a compact transfer station.
MDD is the double-rod version of the standard MD multi-mount family: double acting, with the piston rod extending from both ends of the body. The bore is 25 mm, the stroke is 25 mm, and the trailing S means a magnet is built in. The PT thread is the default port option for this bore size.
The square body fixes from 6 directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and cylinders can be mounted side by side to save space. Strokes for this bore run up to 60 mm, but the short covers favour modest strokes, so stay within the catalogue table. Exact dimensions and any side-load allowance should be confirmed from the datasheet before you design the mounting.
