Airtac MKD Multi-position Clamping Cylinder MKD25X35
The AirTAC Airtac MKD Multi-position Clamping Cylinder MKD25X35 is a genuine MK 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. As an MK unit a fixed rod stops the piston rod rotating.

About the Airtac MKD Multi-position Clamping Cylinder MKD25X35
The MKD25X35 is a genuine AirTAC MK-series multi-mount cylinder: a compact square-body pneumatic cylinder that fixes from 6 directions (front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and can be mounted side by side to save space. This is the double rod variant - a rod extends from both ends, so one 25 mm bore can drive work from either side - with a 35 mm stroke. At 0.5 MPa it delivers a theoretical push thrust of 245.4 N, and the cushion is a bumper. Magnetic-switch slots run around the body for position sensing.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the MK no-rotating family: a fixed rod and plate stop the rod from turning, unlike the standard MD family where rod rotation is not prevented. As the SKU shows, this cylinder is supplied without a magnet. Overall dimensions are per stroke, so confirm sizing and drawings from the datasheet - we will send it 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
The 25 mm bore provides 245.4 N theoretical push thrust at 0.5 MPa, a good fit for medium-duty clamping, stopping and lift-assist jobs. Choose MKD (double rod) when work must be driven from both ends, MK for a single rod, or the MD family when rod rotation is acceptable. Acting is double, so operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa for this bore. The 35 mm stroke is within the bore 25 double-acting table (up to 60 mm); remember the short covers argue against over-long strokes, and side-load limits come from the datasheet - route those to us. This SKU has no magnet; add S to the code for switch detection. Port thread is PT by default with G available.
Applications
Lift-and-lower elevator plate in a test rig
Rods on both ends support a rising plate evenly from two points, and the no-rotating rod keeps the plate level through every stroke.
Product reject pusher at a transfer point
A double rod can push off-spec items from either side of the line, with the 35 mm stroke covering the lane width and the bumper cushioning each contact.
Slide positioning in a compact gauge station
Fixed from top or bottom in a crowded gauge fixture, the square body mounts side by side with neighbors and holds position without rod twist.
FAQ
How does the 35 mm stroke fit within the bore 25 range?
Bore 25 double-acting multi-mount cylinders are offered up to a 60 mm stroke, so 35 mm sits comfortably inside the table. That said, the compact covers of this body style caution against pushing toward over-long strokes; for exact dimensions at your stroke and for allowed side load, confirm from the datasheet or ask us.
What makes the MKD25X35 different from the MD standard family?
It belongs to the MK no-rotating family: a fixed rod and plate stop the piston rod from turning, which matters when the load must stay oriented - plates, stoppers, gauge slides. MD-family cylinders of the same bore and stroke are standard units where rod rotation is not prevented. Here the double rod also gives you push output from both ends, at 245.4 N theoretical push thrust per side at 0.5 MPa.
