Airtac MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD10X15S
The AirTAC MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD10X15S is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (single acting, pull type), 10 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 9.5 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact.

About the Airtac MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD10X15S
The AirTAC MTD multi-mount cylinder is a compact square-body actuator that can be fixed from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and mounted side by side to save space. This MTD10X15S is the single-acting, pull-type variant in a 10mm bore with a 15mm stroke: air power draws the rod in, which suits short-retraction clamp, stopper and locating jobs where panel space is tight. Cushioning is a bumper, magnetic-switch slots run around the body, and guide precision is high with no added lubricant required. As the trailing S shows, this SKU is supplied with the magnet.
This is a genuine AirTAC part from the MD family, the standard multi-mount series - rod rotation is not restricted here (preventing rotation is the job of the MK no-rotating family). It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), from -20 to 70 C (up to 150 C only with the optional high-temperature seal material), at 50-500 mm/s. We confirm dimensions and 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 the work: 10mm is the compact mid-size of the range. Because this is a single-acting pull type, confirm the exact pull-side thrust from the datasheet - single-acting figures differ by side and the push side is always the higher of the two, so the two sides must not be mixed. MD is the standard family (rotation allowed); choose MK if the rod must not rotate. Acting choices are double acting (MD), single-acting push (MSD), single-acting pull (MTD, this model), double rod (MDD) and adjustable-stroke (MDJ). Single-acting strokes run up to 20mm, so 15mm suits the short-cover design - avoid over-long strokes. The magnet is included here (S suffix) and ports are M5x0.8 with PT thread; G thread is the alternative. Route any side-load question to us.
Applications
Small-parts clamp
Retract a clamp jaw under air power to release a small machined or molded part at the end of a cycle, freeing the nest for the next piece.
Gate and stopper
Pull a stopper blade back on a light conveyor line to release one carton or bin at a time, with the cylinder fixed from any of the six body faces.
Jig positioning
Draw a locating pin out of a workpiece between indexing steps in an assembly fixture, mounting several cylinders side by side on a narrow rail.
FAQ
What does the S at the end of MTD10X15S mean?
The trailing S means this SKU is built with the magnet, so magnetic switches can be seated in the slots around the body. The magnet is an option on the MD family: the same cylinder without the S suffix is supplied without it. Always check the code rather than assuming either way.
Can I mount this cylinder from any face of the body?
Yes. As a multi-mount cylinder it can be fixed from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and multiple units can sit side by side to save space. For overall dimensions at your stroke and any allowable side-load, confirm from the datasheet.
