The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X50-50 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 50 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø100mm bore, 50mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ100X50-50 delivers a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a powerful solution for heavy-duty applications requiring a fine-tunable stroke. Its rear-mounted adjusting screw provides a 50 mm range to precisely set the stroke end position, which is invaluable during commissioning or for accommodating part tolerances without replacing the cylinder.
This single-rod, tie-rod cylinder features a 25 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/2 ports. With a body length of 245 mm and a 29 mm air cushion, it smoothly decelerates high-inertia loads at the end of its travel. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa, where it can theoretically output over 7000 N of force.

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.

Fine-tunes the insertion depth of a pressing tool to accommodate varying component heights or to compensate for tooling wear over time.
Operates a diverter gate on a heavy-duty conveyor line, where the 50 mm adjustment allows the gate opening to be optimized for different package sizes.
Sets the final clamping position on a large welding fixture, ensuring consistent pressure is applied to workpieces with slight dimensional variations.
Select the SCJ100X50-50 when you need the force of a 100 mm bore with the ability to dial in the stroke end by up to 50 mm. If your application requires a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC100X50 is a more economical alternative. For higher force, stepping up to the SCJ125 bore provides 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A direct replacement must match the 100 mm bore, 50 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjust range, PT ports, and basic mounting style.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 3927 N and the pull force is 3681 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N. The theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 801 kgf.
Yes, the SCJ100X50-50 shares the same mounting footprint and port size as the SC100X50. The adjustable screw adds length to the rear cap, so ensure you have clearance behind the cylinder. It allows you to shorten the stroke end by up to 50 mm.
