About the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S
The SCJ32X160-100S is a 32mm bore, double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke. Its rear-cap adjusting screw provides up to 100mm of stroke-end reduction, allowing fine-tuning of the 160mm nominal stroke without removing the cylinder. This model delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and includes a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
With a 12mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports, this tie-rod cylinder is built for flexible integration. The adjustable cushion decelerates the piston smoothly, and the compact 182mm body length (A dimension) suits space-constrained automation. It is a genuine AirTAC component, ideal for commissioning and format changeovers.
Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCJ adjustable-stroke tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Nominal stroke | 160 mm |
| Stroke adjustment | Up to 100 mm (rear adjusting screw) |
| Acting type | Double acting (single rod) |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 21 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1000 mm |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S Is Used
Commissioning & Setup
Fine-tune the end-stop position during machine commissioning without swapping cylinders or machining hard stops, saving hours of setup time on assembly lines.
Small-Part Diverter Gates
Adjust the gate opening stroke on a packaging conveyor to handle different product sizes, using the 100mm adjustment range for quick format changeovers.
Sensor Calibration Jigs
Use the built-in magnet and adjustable stroke to create a variable-position actuator for testing and calibrating proximity sensors with precise, repeatable motion.
Is the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SCJ32 when you need to dial in a precise end position on a 32mm bore platform. If 402 N of push force is insufficient, step up to the SCJ40 series, which provides 628 N at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For applications requiring a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC32 cylinder is a simpler, more cost-effective alternative. This SCJ32X160-100S is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SCJ32 cylinder with a 160mm nominal stroke and a 100mm adjustment range, using PT ports and a basic mount.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
- ✓ Need to fine-tune stroke on the line?
- ✓ Nominal stroke + adjust range (-100)
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Set the rear adjusting screw, then lock it before running.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCJ mounting accessory (FA / LB / TC / TCM1).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X160-100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 724 N. The pull force is lower due to the area of the 12mm piston rod.
A screw in the rear cap acts as an adjustable end-stop for the piston. Turning the screw changes the retracted stroke end position by up to 100mm, allowing you to fine-tune the cylinder's travel without affecting its maximum rated stroke or force.
