About the Airtac MPGH Hinge Mount Type Cylinder MPGH6X10N
MPGH6X10N is the plain rod variant of the AirTAC MPG hinge cylinder. The N in the order code replaces the standard male thread with a smooth Ø3 mm rod end, which suits customers who machine their own attachment or clamp the rod directly. The Ø6 mm bore still delivers 14.2 N push and 10.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa over a 10 mm stroke.
Like every MPGH6, the body carries sensor grooves all round, but this code has no magnet in the piston, so position switches will not detect travel as shipped. Bumpers cushion both stroke ends, the M3x0.5 ports take air at 0.15-0.7 MPa, and the rear clevis lets the cylinder pivot with the load.

How to choose
Choose MPGH6X10N over MPGH6X10 when your design needs a smooth rod rather than a male thread: the N option also means the I and Y joints and bumper caps that fit the threaded rod are not the intended rod end solution here. It differs from MPGH6X10S only by the magnet, which this code omits. The stroke sits between MPGH6X5 and MPGH6X15 in the 5 mm series range up to 25 mm, and SDB in the accessory field supplies the rear clevis bracket.
Applications
Custom rod tooling
The plain N rod lets engineers build their own Ø3 mm rod end attachment instead of working around a male thread.
Small gate and lid assist
The rear clevis hinge mount pushes lifting lids or small gates through a 10 mm stroke, cushioned by bumpers at both ends.
Parts ejection in tight cells
A 10 mm stroke at 30-500 mm/s ejects or releases tiny parts from fixtures, with M3x0.5 ports saving space around the cylinder.
FAQ
What are the key figures of the AirTAC MPGH6X10N?
Double acting, Ø6 mm bore and Ø3 mm plain rod (N option), 10 mm stroke, no magnet, M3x0.5 ports, 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) operating pressure, 14.2 N push and 10.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 30-500 mm/s speed, bumper cushion, -20 to +70 C.
How does the N rod change what I can attach to this cylinder?
The N code means a plain rod instead of the standard male thread, so the series I joints, Y joints and bumper caps designed for the threaded rod are not the intended fit; most users machine a custom attachment onto the smooth Ø3 mm rod. The rear clevis mount and optional SDB bracket are unchanged.
