About the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X260-100S
The AirTAC SCJ32X260-100S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke, letting you fine-tune the end position by up to 100 mm without changing the unit. Its 32 mm bore delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a compact yet capable actuator for light positioning tasks. The built-in magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors for reliable end-of-stroke detection.
This model has a 12 mm diameter piston rod and a 21 mm air cushion to decelerate the load smoothly. The PT1/8 port and M10x1.25 rod thread are standard. The body length A is 182 mm, and the adjustable screw shortens the 260 mm nominal stroke from the rear cap, ideal for commissioning trials or format changeovers.
Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X260-100S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X260-100S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCJ adjustable-stroke tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Nominal stroke | 260 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 SCJ32X260-100S Is Used
Commissioning Fine-Tuning
During machine setup, the 100 mm adjustment screw lets technicians dial in the exact stroke end position without swapping cylinders or machining external stops, saving hours of downtime.
Product Format Changeover
On a packaging line, the adjustable stroke allows quick repositioning of a pusher or gate for different box sizes, eliminating the need to stock multiple fixed-stroke cylinders.
Wear Compensation
In clamping or pressing fixtures, the screw can be advanced over time to compensate for pad wear or tooling set, maintaining consistent clamping force without reprogramming the machine.
Is the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X260-100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SCJ32 when you need a compact, adjustable stroke in the 402 N push force class. If you require more force, step up to the SCJ40, which provides 628 N of push at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For applications where the stroke is fixed and never needs field adjustment, the standard SC32 fixed-stroke cylinder is a simpler, cost-effective alternative. This SCJ32X260-100S is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SCJ32 cylinder with a 260 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust range, PT ports, and a magnet.
At a 260 mm stroke, side-loading can cause rod bending. Always guide the load externally or consider a guided cylinder if the rod must support significant lateral forces.
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 SCJ32X260-100S 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. Because it is a single-rod cylinder, the push force is greater than the pull force due to the rod area.
Yes, if you need the 100 mm field-adjustable stroke range. The SCJ32 shares the same bore, rod, port, and mounting accessories as the SC32. Ensure your replacement matches the nominal stroke (260 mm), adjust range, PT thread, and magnet option (-S) for a drop-in fit.
