The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X350-20 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 20 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø32mm bore, 350mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X350-20 is a 32 mm bore double-acting single-rod cylinder with a rear adjusting screw that lets you shorten the stroke end by up to 20 mm without removing the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402 N push and 345 N pull, making it a capable mid-stroke actuator for light handling and assembly tasks where the final stop position needs field tuning.
With a 12 mm diameter rod, PT1/8 ports and a 21 mm air cushion, the cylinder decelerates the piston smoothly near stroke end. The body length A dimension is 182 mm plus the 350 mm nominal stroke, and the adjustable range allows operators to dial in the exact travel during commissioning or after wear take-up.

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.
During machine setup, the 20 mm rear screw lets technicians precisely set the stroke end for pick-and-place or pusher stops without swapping cylinders or machining hard stops.
On packaging lines that switch between product sizes, the adjustable stroke quickly adapts the pusher or diverter travel to the new format, reducing downtime.
In clamping or pressing fixtures, the screw compensates for jaw or pad wear over time, maintaining consistent contact pressure without reprogramming the machine.
Step up to the 40 mm bore SCJ40X350-20 if your load exceeds the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa—the 40 mm bore provides 628 N at the same pressure. For applications that never need stroke adjustment, the fixed-stroke SC32X350 saves cost and length. A direct replacement must match the 32 mm bore, 350 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjust range, PT thread, basic mounting and no magnet; confirm the F-SC32 mounting accessory if a bracket is added later. At 350 mm stroke, consider an external guide or a guided cylinder if the rod sees side load, to prevent bending.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, push force reaches 724 N. Because it is a single-rod cylinder, push force is always greater than pull force.
Yes, if you need the adjustable stroke feature. The SCJ body is slightly longer to house the adjusting screw, so check the A dimension (182 mm + stroke) against your mounting space. Port threads, rod size and mounting accessories remain the same.
