The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X50-10S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 10 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø100mm bore, 50mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ100X50-10S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a rear-cap adjusting screw that lets you fine-tune the stroke end by up to 10 mm without removing the cylinder. With a 100 mm bore, it delivers a substantial 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a powerful actuator for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks where the final stop position needs on-machine tweaking.
This model includes a built-in magnet, so CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors can be clamped directly onto the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The 25 mm piston rod and PT1/2 ports handle high flow, while the 29 mm air cushion at each end decelerates the piston smoothly. The body length A(SCJ) is 245 mm, providing a compact footprint for its 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.

On a packaging conveyor, the SCJ100X50-10S acts as a product stop. The 10 mm adjustment screw allows operators to quickly fine-tune the stop position for different box sizes without changing the cylinder or adding mechanical shims.
In a bearing press station, the adjustable stroke end lets technicians dial in the exact press depth. The 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa is sufficient for seating medium-sized bearings, and the built-in magnet confirms full extension every cycle.
For a welding fixture clamp, the SCJ100X50-10S provides a powerful 3927 N clamping force. The 10 mm adjust range compensates for jaw wear over time, maintaining consistent clamping pressure without reprogramming the machine.
Choose the SCJ100X50-10S when you need roughly 3927 N of push force at standard plant pressure and the ability to dial in the stroke end by up to 10 mm during commissioning or format changes. If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to an 80 mm bore drops push force to 2513 N at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. For applications where the stroke is fixed and never needs adjustment, the standard SC100X50 fixed-stroke cylinder is a simpler, cost-effective alternative. To replace this unit, match an AirTAC SCJ cylinder with a 100 mm bore, 50 mm nominal stroke, a 10 mm adjust range, PT ports, and the -S magnet option.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 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.
A standard SC100 fixed-stroke cylinder will fit the same mounting and port connections, but you will lose the ability to fine-tune the stroke end position. The SCJ100X50-10S is designed specifically for applications where the stroke needs to be adjusted in the field by up to 10 mm. For a direct replacement, you must use another SCJ100 cylinder with a 50 mm nominal stroke and a 10 mm adjust range.
