The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X450-75S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 75 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø100mm bore, 450mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ100X450-75S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder that puts field-adjustable stroke control directly into the rear cap. A 75 mm adjusting screw lets you fine-tune the stroke end position without removing the cylinder or adding external hard stops—ideal for commissioning trials, format changeovers, and wear take-up on long-stroke tooling. At 0.5 MPa, it delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull, with a 25 mm rod and PT1/2 ports.
Built with a tie-rod construction and a 29 mm air cushion, this unit includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors clamp straight onto the barrel for reliable end-of-stroke sensing. The 450 mm nominal stroke is well within the 1500 mm maximum for the 100 mm bore, and the body length A(SCJ) is 245 mm, giving you a compact footprint for the force class.

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.

A packaging line running multiple box sizes uses the 75 mm adjustment screw to quickly reset the pusher end-stop for each format, eliminating manual shimming and reducing changeover time.
In a woodworking clamp station, the adjustable stroke compensates for pad wear over thousands of cycles. Operators tweak the rear screw to maintain consistent clamping pressure without replacing the cylinder.
A 450 mm stroke diverter on a conveyor needs precise end-position tuning during commissioning. The SCJ100X450-75S allows the integrator to dial in the exact gate angle, with sensor feedback via the built-in magnet.
Step up to the SCJ125 if your application needs more than 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa—the 125 mm bore delivers 6136 N at the same pressure. If you need a smaller footprint, the SCJ80 provides 2513 N push. The SCJ is the right choice when you need to dial in the stroke end on the machine; if the stroke is fixed and never changes, the standard SC fixed-stroke cylinder is a simpler, lower-cost alternative. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 450 mm nominal stroke, 75 mm adjust range, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. At 450 mm, rod bending under side load is a real risk—use an external guide rail or switch to a guided cylinder if the load is not perfectly axial.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder produces 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 7068 N. Because it is a single-rod cylinder, the push force is always greater than the pull force due to the rod area on the return side.
Yes, provided the mounting footprint, port size (PT1/2), and 100 mm bore match. The SCJ body is slightly longer than a fixed-stroke SC to house the adjusting mechanism. For a drop-in replacement of another SCJ, ensure the nominal stroke (450 mm), adjust range (75 mm), and the -S magnet option all match. The adjusting screw only changes the stroke end position; it does not alter the cylinder's force rating.
