About the AirTAC MKD6
The AirTAC MKD6 is a double-acting double-rod non-rotating multi-mount cylinder with a 6 mm bore. With a rod on both sides it gives the same force each way: 10.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 14.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Force depends on bore and pressure only, so every stroke on this page gives the same output.
The rod does not rotate, so tooling stays aligned. The compact square body can be fixed from several faces and several cylinders can be mounted side by side. The piston rod exits at both ends of the body. The rod guide needs no added lubrication. All MKD6 versions use M5×0.8 air ports and run on filtered air at 0.2 to 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 30 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 14 stock order codes with strokes from 5 to 35 mm; the catalog maximum stroke is 35 mm.

Theoretical output force (Ø6 mm)
| Pressure | Push | Pull |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10.6 N | 10.6 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 14.8 N | 14.8 N |
Both directions use the bore area minus the rod area. Usable force is lower because of friction and back-pressure.

Where the MKD6 Is Used
Small pushers and stoppers
About 10.6 N at 0.5 MPa in a body that fixes from several faces.
Multi-cylinder banks
Several cylinders mount side by side to save space.
Sensed positioning
Magnet versions report stroke ends through cylinder sensors.
Choosing the Right MKD6 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors.
AirTAC MKD6 FAQ
No. Every MKD6 gives about 10.6 N each way at 0.5 MPa, whatever the stroke.
