About the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X180-30S
The AirTAC SCJ32X180-30S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder featuring a rear-cap adjusting screw for fine-tuning the stroke end position. With a 32mm bore and 12mm rod, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for light-duty positioning and clamping tasks where the final stroke length needs field adjustment.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), allowing direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors along the tie-rod barrel for end-of-stroke detection. The 30mm adjustable range lets operators dial in the exact stroke end without swapping the cylinder, ideal for commissioning or format changes. Its body length A is 182 mm with a 21 mm air cushion for smooth deceleration.
Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X180-30S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X180-30S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCJ adjustable-stroke tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Nominal stroke | 180 mm |
| Stroke adjustment | Up to 30 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 SCJ32X180-30S Is Used
Commissioning Trials
Adjust the stroke end by up to 30mm during machine setup to dial in the exact actuator travel without mechanical stops.
Small Part Ejection
Fine-tune the push stroke on a sorting conveyor to reliably eject lightweight components with the 402 N force.
Sensor Calibration
The built-in magnet enables direct mounting of CMSG sensors, allowing the adjustable stroke to be precisely verified in automated test fixtures.
Is the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X180-30S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SCJ32X180-30S when you need to fine-tune the stroke end on a compact machine. For higher force, step up to the SCJ40 series, which provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. If a fixed stroke is sufficient, the standard SC32 cylinder is a direct alternative. For replacement, match the 32mm bore, 180mm nominal stroke, 30mm adjust range, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. The basic mount requires no additional brackets.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
- ✓ Need to fine-tune stroke on the line?
- ✓ Nominal stroke + adjust range (-30)
- ✓ 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 SCJ32X180-30S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. The single-rod design means push force is greater due to the full piston area.
A screw on the rear cap limits the piston's retraction, shortening the effective stroke by up to 30mm from the 180mm nominal maximum. It does not adjust force or speed.
