About the Airtac MPGH Hinge Mount Type Cylinder MPGH6X10S
The AirTAC MPGH6X10S adds the S option, a magnet in the piston, to the 10 mm stroke hinge cylinder. Because the body has sensor grooves all round, position switches can be mounted along the outside to detect the end positions of the 10 mm travel, a key advantage over the magnetless MPGH6X10.
The rod end is male thread, so I joints, Y joints and bumper caps from the series fit directly. Performance matches the family: 14.2 N push and 10.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa from the Ø6 mm bore, M3x0.5 ports, 0.15-0.7 MPa supply, bumper cushioning at both ends, and a rear clevis that pivots with the load.

How to choose
The S in MPGH6X10S is the ordering-code marker for the magnet; choose this code whenever a position sensor must confirm stroke completion, and MPGH6X10 when sensing is not needed. It shares the male thread rod with MPGH6X10, unlike MPGH6X10N which carries a plain rod. The 10 mm stroke sits between MPGH6X5 and MPGH6X15 in the 5 mm step range up to 25 mm, and SDB orders the rear clevis bracket as an accessory.
Applications
Position-confirmed clamping
The magnet lets switches in the sensor grooves verify that the 10 mm stroke has fully clamped before the next machine step.
Small part sorting chutes
A hinged, magnet-equipped pusher deflects tiny parts on signal, with end positions detected without external limit switches.
Automated micro stations
Sensor feedback from the S magnet supports PLC interlocking, while the male thread rod takes an I or Y joint for the end tooling.
FAQ
What are the key figures of the AirTAC MPGH6X10S?
Double acting with magnet (S), Ø6 mm bore and Ø3 mm rod, 10 mm stroke, male thread rod end, 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 S option work for sensing on this cylinder?
The S code adds a magnet to the piston, and the body has sensor grooves all round, so position switches can be slid onto the grooves to detect stroke positions from outside. The male thread rod remains standard on this code, and the SDB rear clevis bracket can be ordered in the accessory field.
