Airtac MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD32X10
The AirTAC MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD32X10 is a genuine MD multi-mount cylinder (single acting, pull type), 32 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 242.1 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact.

About the Airtac MTD Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTD32X10
The AirTAC MTD series is the single-acting, pull-type version of the MD multi-mount cylinder: a compact square-body unit that fixes from six directions (front, back, left, right, top and bottom) and mounts side by side to save panel space. This model has a 32 mm bore and a 10 mm stroke, so it delivers the strongest option in the single-acting range for short pull-in moves. Cushioning is a bumper, air filtered to 40 um is the medium, and the operating pressure range is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) at speeds of 50-500 mm/s. As a pull-type cylinder the working stroke is the pull direction; confirm the pull-side force figure from the datasheet.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The MD family is the standard multi-mount cylinder, while the MK family adds a no-rotating plate that prevents rod turning; this MTD model is a standard MD-series unit, not a no-rotating type. The SKU has no S suffix, so no piston magnet is fitted; choose an S-suffixed variant if you need magnetic position sensing. At 32 mm bore the port is 1/8" with PT thread. 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
Bore sets the force: 32 mm is the largest bore in the multi-mount range, and as this is the single-acting pull type, confirm the pull-side figure from the datasheet with us. Choose MD if rod rotation does not matter and MK if it must be prevented; acting type options are double acting, single-acting push (MSD), single-acting pull (MTD), double rod (MDD) or adjustable stroke (MDJ). Strokes for single-acting bores run up to 20 mm, so this 10 mm stroke stays within the short-cover design; avoid over-long strokes on this compact body. The SKU has no S, so no magnet is fitted, and the port is 1/8" PT with G thread available.
Applications
Small-part clamping
Bolted through the body to a compact machining fixture, the 32 mm bore pulls a clamp jaw back over 10 mm to release heavier small parts after cutting.
Jig positioning
Side-by-side mounting along a weld or assembly jig lets each cylinder retract a locating pin on cue, holding sheet-metal brackets in position.
Stopper on a light conveyor
Fixed beneath a small conveyor section, the short pull stroke lowers a stopper blade to release one tote at a time between process stations.
FAQ
What does MTD mean in the part number MTD32X10?
MTD is the single-acting, pull-type variant of the AirTAC MD multi-mount family. The 32 is the bore in mm and the 10 after the X is the stroke in mm. There is no trailing S, so no piston magnet is fitted, and the thread is PT unless a G is specified.
How far can the stroke go on a single-acting multi-mount cylinder?
Single-acting versions of this family are offered up to a 20 mm stroke, because the covers are short on the compact square body. Keep your stroke within that range and confirm exact dimensions and side-load limits from the datasheet, which we can supply on request.
