The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X400-100S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 100 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø32mm bore, 400mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X400-100S is a double-acting, single-rod tie-rod cylinder that lets you dial in the stroke end position with a rear adjusting screw, offering a full 100 mm of field-adjustable range. With a 12 mm rod and PT1/8 ports, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a precise actuator for light automation tasks where the stroke must be tuned during commissioning or changeover.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors clamp directly onto the barrel for non-contact position sensing. The standard TPU seal operates from -20 to +70 °C, and the 21 mm air cushion at each end decelerates the piston quietly. The body length A dimension is 182 mm, giving a compact footprint for its 400 mm nominal stroke.

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.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position during machine bring-up without swapping cylinders or machining hard stops, saving hours of mechanical adjustment.
Adjust the gate opening stroke on a packaging line to handle different product sizes, using the 100 mm range to quickly adapt between formats.
Pair the built-in magnet with CMSG sensors to confirm the piston has reached the adjusted end stop, providing closed-loop feedback for quality checks.
Choose the SCJ32 when you need a compact, adjustable-stroke cylinder in the 402 N push class. If your load requires more force, step up to the SCJ40, which provides 628 N push at the same 0.5 MPa pressure. For applications where the stroke never needs field adjustment, the fixed-stroke SC32 is a simpler, cost-effective alternative. When replacing an existing SCJ32X400-100S, match the bore, 400 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust range, PT port thread, and the built-in magnet; the basic mounting style uses no additional bracket. For strokes of 300 mm or more, consider an external guide rail or a guided cylinder if the rod is exposed to side loads, as the 12 mm rod can deflect under off-axis forces.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it generates 402 N pushing and 345 N pulling (the difference is due to the single rod). At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force is 804 N.
Yes, if you need field-adjustable stroke. The SCJ32 shares the same bore, rod, and port dimensions as the SC32, but adds a rear adjusting screw. Ensure your mounting and sensor setup accommodates the slightly longer SCJ body length (A = 182 mm).
