Airtac MTK Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTK25X10S
The AirTAC MTK Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTK25X10S is a genuine MK multi-mount cylinder (single acting, pull type), 25 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 144.4 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact. As an MK unit a fixed rod stops the piston rod rotating.

About the Airtac MTK Multi-position Locking Cylinder MTK25X10S
The MTK25X10S is a 25 mm bore, 10 mm stroke single-acting, pull type multi-mount cylinder from AirTAC's MK series, supplied with a magnet. Its compact square body can be fixed from 6 directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and cylinders can be mounted side by side to save space, with magnetic-switch slots around the body and high guide precision with no added lubricant. Air works on one side only, on air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi), with a bumper as the cushion and speeds of 50-500 mm/s.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The MK family is the no-rotating version of the standard MD series: a no-rotating plate, brass bushing and fixed rod stop the piston rod from turning. The trailing S in this SKU means it carries the magnet; the plain MTK25X10 is the same cylinder without one. Because this is a single-acting, pull type model, its pull-side force is lower than the push-side figure - we confirm the exact value, plus 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
The 25 mm bore gives you the strongest option in the MK single-acting range; as a pull type, its pull-side force is lower than the push side, so confirm the exact figure from the datasheet before sizing. If the rod must push instead of pull, choose the MSK (single-acting push) or the MK (double acting). Keep the stroke at or under the single-acting table limit of 20 mm - 10 mm fits comfortably, and the short single-acting covers caution against an over-long stroke. The S suffix here specifies the magnet; drop it (MTK25X10) if you do not need switch detection. Port thread is PT as standard, with G available.
Applications
Switch-monitored clamp release
The magnet in this SKU lets a magnetic switch seated in the body slots signal that the pull stroke has pulled a small clamp or latch fully back before the next cycle starts.
Row-mounted jig pin pullers
Fix several MTK25X10S units side by side along a compact fixture to retract locating pins in unison, with switch feedback confirming each pin is clear.
Stopper blade retract on tight lines
Bolt the body under a narrow conveyor using the 6-way fix, and use the 10 mm pull stroke to withdraw a stopper blade, with the no-rotating rod keeping the blade square.
FAQ
Does the MTK25X10S include a magnet?
Yes. The trailing S means this SKU is supplied with a magnet, so a magnetic switch can be seated in the slots around the body. The plain MTK25X10 (no S) is the same cylinder without a magnet - fitment is an option shown in the SKU, never a default on every unit.
Can I mount this cylinder in any orientation?
Yes. The multi-mount body fixes from 6 directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and units can be mounted side by side to save space. Keep the stroke short (single-acting covers suit up to 20 mm) and confirm side-load limits and dimensions from the datasheet.
