Genuine AirTAC hinge mount cylinder, order code MPGH6X25S from the MPGH6 range. The options this code selects are decoded below; series data follow the official AirTAC catalog.
The AirTAC MPGH6X25S combines the three options many machines ask for at once: the full 25 mm stroke of the Dia 6 mm hinge cylinder, the S option code that adds a magnet for position sensing, and a male threaded rod end for the catalog I and Y joints and bumper caps. It is double acting and mounts on a rear clevis, so the body pivots with linkages, latches or lever arms while the piston travels.
The magnet works with the sensor grooves machined all round the body, letting a switch read end positions along the cylinder. Performance stays at the series level: 14.2 N push and 10.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) operating pressure, bumper cushion at both ends, and a rod guide that runs without extra lubrication. Keep the air filtered by a 40 um element as the catalog specifies.

Select MPGH6X25S over MPGH6X25 exactly when your controller must verify stroke position, since only the S code carries the magnet. If the load bolts directly to the rod, MPGH6X25SN style ordering with N gives a plain rod, while the threaded end here suits accessory fitting. When 25 mm exceeds the needed travel, the same magnet option exists on shorter MPGH6S strokes from 5 to 20 mm in 5 mm steps, all with the +1.0/0 mm stroke tolerance.
The magnet and body sensor grooves let a switch confirm the piston reached the 25 mm mark, a simple check for latch or clamp confirmation in automated cells.
On small handling heads, the Dia 6 bore moves light parts through the full 25 mm stroke while position feedback from the magnet guards the cycle.
On lever or hinge linkages driven through the rear clevis, the magnet signals when the arm side of the stroke is complete without adding external switches.
Dia 6 mm bore, Dia 3 mm rod with male thread, 25 mm stroke (+1.0/0 mm tolerance within the 5 to 25 mm range), magnet for position sensing with sensor grooves around the body, double acting, 14.2 N push and 10.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, M3x0.5 port, 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) operating pressure, proof pressure 1.2 MPa, -20 to +70 C, 30-500 mm/s, bumper cushion.
The male threaded rod accepts the catalog rod-end accessories, including I and Y joints and bumper caps. For the rear hinge mounting, order the SDB rear clevis bracket; without it, the cylinder ships with no accessory bracket. Sensor switch type and fitting are chosen per the datasheet, and air must pass a 40 um filter element.
