Airtac MSD Multi-Position Fixed Cylinder MSD10X15
The AirTAC Airtac MSD Multi-Position Fixed Cylinder MSD10X15 is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (single acting, push type), 10 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 15.8 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact.

About the Airtac MSD Multi-Position Fixed Cylinder MSD10X15
The MSD10X15 is an AirTAC MSD-series multi-mount cylinder: a compact square-body, single acting push-type cylinder that can be fixed from 6 directions (front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and mounted side by side to save space. With a 10 mm bore and a 15 mm stroke it delivers a theoretical push force of about 15.8 N at 0.5 MPa and returns by spring when air is released, suiting short push, eject and clamp motions where layout space is limited. Cushioning is a bumper.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The MSD family is the standard multi-mount body (for no-rotating rods, see the MK family). The SKU shows no magnet, and the PT thread is the default port thread. Overall dimensions vary with stroke, so confirm exact sizing from the datasheet 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
Choose the bore for thrust: at 0.5 MPa this 10 mm bore pushes with a theoretical 15.8 N in single acting form. MD is the standard body where rod rotation is acceptable; MK is the no-rotating version. This unit is single acting push (spring return); double acting, single pull, double rod and adjustable-stroke variants also exist. Single acting strokes run up to 20 mm, so the 15 mm stroke is near the top of the range - check that the covers stay within your envelope and avoid over-long strokes on this compact body. This SKU has no magnet (trailing S adds one) and a PT thread; a G thread is available. Side-load ratings and exact dimensions come from the datasheet - ask us.
Applications
Small-parts clamping
Fix the square body from the top or side of a compact fixture and use the 15 mm push stroke to hold small workpieces during assembly or inspection.
Indexing light assemblies
Mount several MSD cylinders side by side along a small indexing fixture, using the 6-way fixing to orient each unit where the next position stop is required.
Gate and stopper duty
Bolt the cylinder from the bottom of a compact slide or gate bracket; the spring-return push stroke raises a stopper pin or trip gate on a light parts line.
FAQ
Why choose the 15 mm stroke on this 10 mm bore, and what are the limits?
MSD10X15 gives a slightly longer spring-return push (about 15.8 N theoretical at 0.5 MPa) than the 10 mm stroke version while staying single acting. Single acting strokes on this series run up to 20 mm, so 15 mm is close to the maximum - keep the design compact and confirm exact dimensions from the datasheet.
How can I fix MSD10X15 in my machine?
The square body can be fixed from 6 directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and units can sit side by side to save space. Because it is an MSD (MD family) cylinder, the rod may rotate; if your tooling must stay oriented, choose the MK no-rotating family instead.
