The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X150-100S 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. Ø32mm bore, 150mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X150-100S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder featuring a rear-cap adjusting screw that provides up to 100 mm of stroke-end adjustability, letting you fine-tune the 150 mm nominal stroke on the fly. With a 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
This model includes a built-in magnet (suffix -S), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be clamped directly onto the tie-rod barrel for reliable, non-contact position sensing. The body length A(SCJ) is 182 mm, and the adjustable air cushion decelerates the piston smoothly at the end of its travel, protecting the end cap during high-cycle applications.

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 | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 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.

The 100 mm adjustment range allows engineers to dial in the exact stroke end position during machine commissioning without swapping cylinders or machining external hard stops, saving hours of setup time.
On packaging or assembly lines, operators can quickly adjust the stroke to accommodate different product sizes or formats, minimizing downtime between batches with a simple turn of the rear screw.
In clamping or pressing fixtures, the adjustable stroke can be periodically extended to compensate for tooling wear or material compression, maintaining consistent process force without replacing the actuator.
Choose the SCJ32 bore for compact automation tasks requiring up to 724 N of push force. If your application demands more power, stepping up to the SCJ40 bore provides 628 N of push force at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For applications where the stroke length never needs field adjustment, the fixed-stroke SC32 cylinder is a simpler, more cost-effective alternative. This SCJ32X150-100S is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SCJ32 cylinder with a 150 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust range, PT ports, and a magnet sensor.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
A screw mechanism in the rear end cap acts as an internal stop for the piston. By turning the screw, you can shorten the stroke end by up to 100 mm from the 150 mm maximum. This adjusts the physical stopping point of the piston, not the air pressure or speed.
The theoretical push force is 402 N at 0.5 MPa and 724 N at 0.9 MPa. The pull force is lower due to the 12 mm rod area, providing 345 N at 0.5 MPa. Always consider the pull force when sizing for retraction tasks.
