The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X275-30S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 30 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø100mm bore, 275mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ100X275-30S delivers a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a workhorse for medium-to-heavy linear applications where the end position needs fine-tuning. Its 30 mm rear-screw adjustment range lets you dial in the exact stroke end on the machine without swapping the cylinder, which is particularly useful during commissioning or format changes.
This model includes a built-in magnet, so CMSG/DMSG/EMSG solid-state or reed sensors clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for non-contact position feedback. The 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 ports handle high flow, while the 29 mm air cushion at each end decelerates the 275 mm stroke smoothly.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCJ (adjustable-stroke) datasheet. The rear adjusting screw sets the stroke end position; force is the same as the equivalent single-rod SC bore. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
SCJ is single-rod, so force matches the equivalent SC bore: push uses the full bore area, pull subtracts the rod area. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Related types: SC (single rod, fixed stroke), SCD (double rod), SCT (multi-position). SCJ mounting: Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1. Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Quickly adjust the stroke end stop for different product sizes on packaging or assembly machines, reducing downtime between batches.
Fine-tune the actuator's end position during initial machine setup to perfectly align with tooling or stops without mechanical rework.
Take up mechanical play or wear in linkages over time by advancing the stroke end screw, maintaining precise positioning.
Choose this 100 mm bore when the 80 mm bore's 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa is insufficient for your load. If you need a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC series is a simpler alternative. For guided loads, pair this with an external guide or a guided cylinder to manage side forces. As a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 275 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjust range, PT port thread, basic mount, and the -S magnet option.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa (5 bar), it delivers 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. The push force is higher because the single piston rod reduces the effective area on the return stroke.
A screw in the rear cap lets you shorten the stroke end by up to 30 mm. It sets a mechanical stop for the piston, so the 275 mm nominal stroke is the maximum; you can field-adjust it down to 245 mm.
