Airtac MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ10X30-10S
The AirTAC Airtac MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ10X30-10S is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (adjustable stroke), 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 MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ10X30-10S
The AirTAC MDJ10X30-10S is an adjustable-stroke multi-mount cylinder with a 10 mm bore, a 30 mm base stroke and a 10 mm adjustable range on top. Its square body fixes from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - so units mount side by side to save space, with magnetic-switch slots around the body and high guide precision. Double acting, it pushes with a theoretical 39.3 N at 0.5 MPa (33.0 N pulling), runs at 30-500 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, and cushions with a bumper.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the MD standard family; the MK family is the no-rotating alternative when the rod must not turn. The trailing S means this SKU carries the magnet for piston-position sensing. We confirm dimensions and sizing from the 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 gives a theoretical 39.3 N push at 0.5 MPa double acting, so start by matching the bore to your load. Pick MD standard where rod rotation is acceptable and MK where rotation must be prevented. Acting types cover double, single push, single pull, double rod and adjustable-stroke; this MDJ adds a 10, 20 or 30 mm adjustable range over the base stroke. Bore 10 strokes run to 35 mm, so the 30 mm stroke fits the table, but avoid over-long strokes because the short cover limits them - ask us about side load. The trailing S specifies the magnet, and ports are PT by default or G to order.
Applications
Pick-and-Place on Compact Gantries
Drive the Z-axis of a small pick-and-place unit. The magnet in the piston feeds position signals to switches in the body slots, and side-by-side mounting keeps multi-axis gantries compact.
Indexing Fixtures
Index or advance parts between stations. The 30 mm stroke plus 10 mm adjustment dials in the index distance, and the six-direction body fix simplifies mounting inside tight fixture plates.
Small-Parts Eject and Push
Eject or push small parts off chutes and trays. The bumper cushions the end of stroke for gentle handling, and the 10 mm bore matches light-duty push loads at 39.3 N theoretical thrust at 0.5 MPa.
FAQ
What does the S at the end of MDJ10X30-10S mean?
The trailing S means this cylinder is supplied with a magnet in the piston, so magnetic switches seated in the slots around the body can sense rod position. The same code without the S is the no-magnet version; the magnet is an option, not a standard feature on every unit.
How does the adjustable stroke work on this cylinder?
MDJ models have a base stroke of 30 mm plus a 10 mm adjustable range, so the effective stroke can be set anywhere from 30 to 40 mm. Note the short cover design favours shorter strokes, and any side-load or dimension question should be confirmed from the datasheet.
