The AirTAC Airtac MDJ Adjustable Cylinder MDJ25X60-30S is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (adjustable stroke), 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 MDJ25X60-30S is an adjustable-stroke, double acting AirTAC multi-mount cylinder: a 25 mm bore, 60 mm stroke and a 30 mm adjustable range on top, so the effective stroke can be dialled in at set-up. The compact square body fixes from 6 directions and allows units to be mounted side by side to save space, with magnetic-switch slots around the body and high guide precision requiring no added lubricant. Working at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) on filtered air, it offers about 245.4 N of theoretical push thrust at 0.5 MPa and cushions with a bumper.
You are buying a genuine AirTAC part from the MD standard series, where rod rotation is allowed; for applications where the rod must not turn, use the MK no-rotating series. The trailing S means this SKU includes the magnet for switch detection, and the PT thread is the default. We will 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.
Choose the 25 mm bore for around 245.4 N of theoretical push at 0.5 MPa, or move to a larger bore when more force is needed. MD suits jobs where rod rotation does not matter, while MK prevents it. This MDJ code pairs the 60 mm stroke with a 30 mm adjustable range, the widest adjustment offered, and the 60 mm base stroke is already the maximum for this bore, so do not stretch beyond it and let us advise on any side-load. The S suffix supplies the magnet for position switches; keep it out of the code if you do not need sensing. Thread is PT standard, with G on request.
Fix the body to the frame of a compact material-handling gate and drive it open and closed, with the magnet enabling open/closed feedback to the controller at both ends of stroke.
Mount the cylinder vertically through a fixture plate to lift and lower small assemblies, using the 30 mm adjustable range to fine-tune the rest height at commissioning.
Install side by side along a sorting conveyor to kick cartons between lanes, where the 6-way fixing lets the body sit flush in a narrow slot and the bumper cushions each divert stroke.
Use the MD standard series, including this MDJ25X60-30S, when the rod is connected through a clevis or coupled to a linear guide and rotation does not matter. Choose the MK no-rotating series when the rod or a plate on it must be kept from turning, such as feeding a part that must stay oriented.
Yes, 60 mm is the maximum stroke for the 25 mm bore in the MD series, and the 30 mm adjustment works on top of it. The short body cover means over-long strokes should be avoided; if you need more travel or face side-loads, check the datasheet with us before ordering.
