The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X400-50S 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, 400mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X400-50S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke, letting you fine-tune the end position by up to 50 mm without swapping the unit. Its 12 mm rod and 21 mm air cushion deliver smooth deceleration, while the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa (724 N at 0.9 MPa) handles moderate positioning and clamping tasks.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), so CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for end-of-stroke confirmation. The body length A is 182 mm, and the PT1/8 port supplies the filtered air. The adjustable screw sets only the stroke end—it is not a force or speed regulator.

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-stop by up to 50 mm during machine bring-up without draining the air system or removing the cylinder, speeding up installation.
Adjust the stroke end to match a new product size on a packaging or assembly line, eliminating the need to stock multiple fixed-stroke cylinders.
Take up mechanical play or seal wear over time by slightly extending the effective stroke, maintaining consistent contact or clamping force.
Choose the SCJ32X400-50S when you need a 400 mm nominal stroke with up to 50 mm of on-machine adjustment for commissioning or format changes. If 402 N push is marginal, stepping up to the SCJ40 series provides 628 N push at the same 0.5 MPa. For applications needing a fixed, unadjustable stroke, the standard SC32 cylinder is the direct alternative. This SCJ32 adjustable-stroke cylinder replaces another AirTAC SCJ32 with the same 400 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT ports, and the -S magnet option. For strokes of 300 mm or more, ensure the rod is guided externally or use a guided cylinder if side loads are present to prevent rod bending.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it delivers 402 N pushing and 345 N pulling. The push force increases to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
Yes, if you need field adjustability. The SCJ32X400-50S matches the SC32 bore and rod dimensions but adds a rear adjusting screw for a 50 mm stroke-end range. Ensure the longer body length A (182 mm) fits your mounting space.
