Airtac MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ10X5-10S
The AirTAC Airtac MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ10X5-10S 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 MDJ10X5-10S
The MDJ10X5-10S is an AirTAC MD-series adjustable-stroke multi-mount cylinder with a 10 mm bore, a short 5 mm base stroke and an extra 10 mm adjustable range, supplied with magnet. The multi-mount square body fixes from 6 directions (front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and mounts side by side to save space, with magnetic-switch slots around the body and high guide precision without added lubricant. Double acting with a TPU bumper cushion, it runs at 30-500 mm/s and provides a theoretical push thrust of 39.3 N at 0.5 MPa on this bore.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The MD family is the standard multi-mount design; the MK family is the no-rotating version that stops the rod turning with a plate and fixed rod - this model allows rotation. The trailing S in the SKU confirms this unit is built with a magnet, using the body's switch slots for position detection. Medium is air filtered to 40 um, proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to 70 C (0 to 150 C only with the optional high-temperature seal material). We confirm exact 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
Pick the 10 mm bore for light-duty jobs within its theoretical 39.3 N push thrust at 0.5 MPa (33.0 N pull side); move to bore 16-32 when you need more force. MDJ gives double acting action plus adjustment: the rod stops anywhere in the extra 10 mm range beyond the 5 mm base stroke, so you can set a precise final position after installation. The S suffix means magnet is included; the same cylinder without S has no magnet.
Thread is PT as standard with G available as an option on the M5x0.8 ports used on bore 6-25. Standard MD permits rod rotation - choose MK where rotation must be prevented. Keep stroke within the bore's table, since the short cover cautions against over-long strokes on this compact multi-mount body. Confirm side-load limits and per-stroke dimensions from the datasheet, or ask us.
Applications
Indexed gate with position signal
A short-stroke gate or interlock on an automation cell; the included magnet and body switch slots signal open and closed positions back to the PLC, and the adjustable range dials in the exact stop point.
Pick-and-place lift confirm
Lifts small parts a few millimetres between stations and confirms completion via the magnet; the 6-direction fixing lets the cylinder mount from above, below or the side of a cramped head plate.
Small-parts clamp with detection
Clamps tiny components during gluing or testing, with the magnet verifying the clamp is made; units mount side by side for multi-point clamping in minimal space.
FAQ
What is the difference between MDJ10X5-10 and MDJ10X5-10S?
Only the magnet. The trailing S on the MDJ10X5-10S means the cylinder is built with a magnet for position-detecting switches in the slots around the body. The MDJ10X5-10 without the S is supplied without a magnet. Both are double acting, bore 10, 5 mm stroke with a 10 mm adjustable range.
Where can this multi-mount cylinder be fixed from?
The square body can be fixed from 6 directions: front, back, left, right, top and bottom, and cylinders can be mounted side by side to save space. Allowable side load and overall dimensions are not quoted here - confirm them from the datasheet or ask us.
