The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X250-50 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 50 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø32mm bore, 250mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X250-50 is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a 50 mm rear adjusting screw that lets you dial in the exact stroke end position on the machine. With a 32 mm bore and 12 mm rod, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a compact but capable actuator for light positioning and clamping tasks.
Because the stroke is field-adjustable, you can compensate for wear, fine-tune a stop during commissioning, or adapt to a new product format without dismounting the cylinder. The tie-rod body is 182 mm long (A dimension) and includes an adjustable air cushion to decelerate the piston smoothly at end of travel.

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.

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.
The 50 mm adjusting screw allows technicians to creep up on the exact stop position during machine bring-up, eliminating the need to swap fixed-stroke cylinders or machine external hard stops.
In repetitive pressing or clamping fixtures, the adjustable stroke end can be tweaked over time to maintain consistent contact force as tooling or pads wear, extending fixture life.
On small packaging or sorting lines, the 250 mm stroke with 50 mm of adjustment lets a single cylinder handle multiple product sizes by quickly resetting the pusher or gate end position.
Choose this 32 mm bore when you need up to 402 N of push force at standard plant air. If your load demands more thrust, step up to the SCJ40 series, which provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. For applications where the stroke never changes after setup, the fixed-stroke SC32X250 is a simpler, lower-cost alternative. This SCJ32X250-50 is a direct replacement for an existing AirTAC SCJ adjustable cylinder of the same bore, 250 mm nominal stroke, and 50 mm adjust range with PT ports and basic mounting.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N (the rod reduces the piston area on the return stroke). At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 724 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf.
Yes, this is a genuine AirTAC SCJ32X250-50. It is a direct dimensional and performance match for any AirTAC SCJ32 cylinder with a 250 mm nominal stroke and 50 mm adjustment range, using the standard PT port thread and basic mounting. Verify your existing port size (PT1/8) and rod thread (M10x1.25) match.
