The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X50-50 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, 50mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X50-50 is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder that puts stroke-end fine-tuning directly in your hands. Its rear-cap adjusting screw provides a full 50 mm of adjustment range, allowing you to dial in the exact stop position without swapping the cylinder or adding external hard stops. With a 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports, it delivers a compact yet robust 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
Built on the proven AirTAC tie-rod platform, this 32 mm bore unit includes an adjustable air cushion for smooth deceleration and a body length A of 182 mm. The adjustable stroke is ideal for commissioning trials, format changeovers, or taking up mechanical wear over time. It operates on filtered air from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa and handles speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s, making it a versatile workhorse for light automation tasks.

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 adjustment range lets technicians quickly fine-tune the end-stop during machine commissioning without needing to re-plumb or swap cylinders, saving hours of setup time on new automation cells.
In packaging or assembly lines, mechanical stops can wear over time. The SCJ's screw allows operators to compensate for this wear instantly, maintaining precise positioning without replacing the actuator.
For machines that process different product sizes, the adjustable stroke enables rapid changeover between formats. The operator simply turns the rear screw to set the new stroke end, eliminating the need for multiple fixed-stroke cylinders.
Choose the SCJ32X50-50 when you need to fine-tune the end position of a 32 mm bore cylinder by up to 50 mm. If your force requirement is lower, the fixed-stroke SC series in this bore offers the same 402 N push at 0.5 MPa without the adjustment mechanism. For higher force, stepping up to a 40 mm bore provides 628 N of push at the same pressure. If your application involves significant side loads, consider an external guide rail or a guided cylinder, as the 12 mm rod can be vulnerable to bending. This model is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SCJ32X50-50 with PT threads and basic mounting.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. The push force is higher because the single rod reduces the effective piston area on the return stroke. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the theoretical push force reaches 804 N.
Yes, this is a genuine AirTAC SCJ32X50-50 with a 50 mm adjustable stroke range, PT1/8 ports, and basic mounting. It is a direct dimensional and performance match for any previous SCJ32X50-50 cylinder with the same specifications. Ensure your port thread type matches (PT standard).
