The AirTAC Airtac SCJ100 Standard Cylinder SCJ100X700-100 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 100 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø100mm bore, 700mm nominal stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ100X700-100 is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder from the AirTAC SCJ adjustable-stroke family. With a 100 mm bore and a nominal 700 mm stroke, it delivers a substantial push force of 3927 N at 0.5 MPa (up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa). The defining feature is the rear-cap adjusting screw, which allows the stroke end position to be shortened by up to 100 mm, providing a critical field-adjustment range for commissioning and process fine-tuning without replacing the cylinder.
This model uses a 25 mm diameter piston rod, PT1/2 ports, and an M20x1.5 rod thread for robust mechanical connections. The cylinder body length (A dimension) is 245 mm, and it features an adjustable air cushion of 29 mm for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration. As a genuine AirTAC component, it is built for reliable industrial service with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s and an operating pressure of 0.15-1.0 MPa.

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.

During initial machine setup, the 100 mm adjustment screw allows engineers to precisely dial in the end-stop position for a large-scale clamping or pressing operation, eliminating the need for custom-length cylinders.
On a heavy-duty packaging line, the adjustable stroke enables a quick mechanical changeover between different product sizes by simply altering the pusher's stop point, reducing downtime between batches.
In a long-stroke pressing fixture, the rear screw can be periodically advanced to compensate for wear on a pressing pad or tooling surface, maintaining consistent final pressure depth without disassembling the actuator.
Select the SCJ100X700-100 when a high-force actuator is needed and the application requires the ability to dial in the exact stroke end position on-site. The 100 mm of adjustment is ideal for accommodating variations in tooling or workpiece placement. If the required force is lower, stepping down to an SCJ80 bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) can reduce air consumption and physical size. For a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC100 series is a more economical choice.
For this 700 mm stroke length, be mindful of side loading on the extended rod. An external guide rail or a switch to a guided cylinder assembly is recommended if the load is not perfectly axial to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. This cylinder is a direct replacement for another AirTAC SCJ100X700-100 with the same PT port thread and basic mounting configuration.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
The rear adjusting screw mechanically limits the piston's retraction stroke end, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm from the nominal 700 mm. It does not alter the cylinder's output force, which remains 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, regardless of the screw's setting.
No. Like all standard pneumatic cylinders, it will drift or drop if air pressure is lost or the control valve is centered. The adjustable screw only sets the stroke end position; it is not a mechanical lock. To hold a load without air pressure, you must add an external rod brake or a pilot-operated check valve.
