The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X60-30SN 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, 60mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The AirTAC SCJ100X60-30SN is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder engineered for applications requiring precise, on-machine stroke tuning. Its rear-cap adjusting screw provides a 30 mm field-adjustable range, allowing you to fine-tune the stroke end position without removing the cylinder or adding external hard stops. With a 100 mm bore, it delivers a substantial 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a powerful actuator for medium-to-heavy industrial tasks.
This model is configured with an NBR (nitrile) seal for reliable performance with standard lubricated or non-lubricated compressed air, and a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The 25 mm piston rod and PT1/2 port ensure robust air flow, while the adjustable air cushion decelerates the 29 mm cushion stroke smoothly. The body length A(SCJ) is 245 mm, providing a compact yet powerful solution for integration into existing machinery.

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.
Use the 30 mm adjusting screw to precisely dial in the end-stop position during machine startup, eliminating the need for shims or custom hard stops and drastically reducing setup time.
In high-cycle material handling, grippers and pushers wear over time. The adjustable stroke allows operators to easily compensate for mechanical wear without disassembling the actuator, maintaining consistent part contact.
Quickly adapt the cylinder's stroke to handle different product sizes on a packaging line. The 30 mm adjustment range enables a single machine to process multiple formats without changing the cylinder.
Choose the SCJ100 when you need a force of 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa and the flexibility to adjust the stroke end by up to 30 mm during commissioning or changeovers. If your force requirement is lower, stepping down to an SCJ80 bore reduces push force to 2513 N. For applications needing a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC100 series is a more economical choice. This cylinder is a direct replacement for an existing AirTAC SCJ100X60-30SN with PT ports, basic mounting, and a magnet.
For this 60 mm nominal stroke, side-loading is typically not a primary concern, but always ensure the load is guided and aligned with the piston rod axis. If your application involves significant lateral forces, consider adding an external guide rail or switching to a guided cylinder assembly to prevent premature rod bearing wear.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of pushing force and 3681 N of pulling force. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 7068 N. The force is not affected by the stroke adjustment screw.
Yes, if you need the added flexibility of a 30 mm adjustable stroke. The SCJ100X60-30SN has the same bore, rod diameter (25 mm), and PT1/2 port as the SC100, but its body is slightly longer to house the adjustment mechanism. Ensure the longer body length A(SCJ) of 245 mm fits your mounting space.
