The AirTAC Airtac SAUJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAUJ100X85-10S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 85mm stroke, 1/2" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.
The AirTAC SAUJ100X85-10S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an on-site stroke adjustment. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm, giving a usable working stroke of 75-85 mm. The 85 mm nominal length serves as the maximum travel. It features a 1/2 inch port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and 29 mm adjustable air cushions.
This 100 mm bore generates 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The computed safe working load is roughly 2356 N, which translates to a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The extruded aluminum profile is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

Related SAU-family variants: SAUD (double rod), SAUJ (adjustable stroke), SAUF (with built-in solenoid valve), and SAU-S with built-in magnet. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N. Sensor switches: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
Allows operators to dial in the exact 75-85 mm extend position for seating bearings, compensating for material thickness variations on-site.
Provides adjustable end-stop positioning for folding mechanisms, ensuring precise flap alignment without reprogramming machine logic.
Enables field adjustment of the diverting stroke length to handle different package widths on the fly via the external stop screw.
When sizing this unit, compare it against the 80 mm bore, which yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, the smaller bore saves space. If you need more, note that 100 mm is the largest available SAUJ size. Choose the SAUJ over a fixed SAU when you need to fine-tune the extend end position on-site without buying a new cylinder. The 10 mm adjust window is ideal for minor mechanical timing corrections. Mounting options include Basic, FA flange, and LB foot, sharing compatibility with the AirTAC SC series. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. For any stroke over 300 mm, ensure external guiding to prevent excessive side loading on the rod.
Quick checklist
This 100 mm bore cylinder delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical max force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw allows you to shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, making the usable extend range 75-85 mm.
The external stop screw mechanically sets the extend end position. It is not a load lock. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss, and the 29 mm air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel. To hold a load securely, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
