The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X30-30S 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, 30mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The AirTAC SCJ100X30-30S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke end, giving you a 30 mm fine-tuning range on the nominal 100 mm stroke. Its 25 mm rod generates 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a capable actuator for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks where the final stop position needs on-machine tweaking.
A built-in magnet (the -S suffix) lets you mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and solid-state sensors directly onto the tie-rod barrel for contactless end-of-stroke or mid-stroke position feedback. The 100 mm bore body is 245 mm long (A dimension), and the rear adjusting screw shortens the stroke end without altering the cylinder's 0.15–1.0 MPa operating envelope or its 1500 mm maximum standard stroke capability.

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.
Dial in the exact stop position during machine bring-up with the 30 mm rear screw adjustment, eliminating the need to shim or reposition the entire cylinder body.
Fine-tune the pressing depth or clamping gap on a fixture using the adjustable stroke end, then monitor piston position with the built-in magnet and a DMSG sensor.
Adjust the retracted stop point of a diverter gate to handle different package sizes without swapping the cylinder, speeding up format changeovers on a packaging line.
Step up to the SCJ125 if your application demands more than the 3927 N push force this 100 mm bore delivers at 0.5 MPa—the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. If you never need to alter the stroke after installation, the fixed-stroke SC100 is a simpler, cost-effective alternative. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 30 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjust range, PT port thread, basic mounting, and the integrated magnet (-S).
At a 30 mm stroke, rod bending from side loads is rarely a concern, but if your tooling applies any off-axis force, an external guide rail or a guided cylinder will protect the rod bearing and piston seals from premature wear.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N (the difference is due to the single 25 mm rod). At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 7854 N.
Yes, if you need the 30 mm adjustable stroke range. The SCJ shares the same mounting footprint and port size (PT1/2) as the SC100. Ensure your mounting style and magnet option match; this -S model requires sensor compatibility.
