About the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X60-40
The SCJ32X60-40 is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke end, letting you fine-tune the piston's stop position by up to 40 mm without swapping the unit. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 724 N at its 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a compact workhorse for light automation tasks.
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 12 mm diameter rod with M10x1.25 threads and PT1/8 ports. Its integral rear-cap adjusting screw shortens the nominal 60 mm stroke, and the 21 mm air cushion at each end provides smooth deceleration. The tie-rod body has a length of 182 mm, fitting neatly into space-constrained machines.
Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X60-40 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X60-40 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCJ adjustable-stroke tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Nominal stroke | 60 mm |
| Stroke adjustment | Up to 40 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 SCJ32X60-40 Is Used
Commissioning Fine-Tuning
Dial in the exact stroke end position on a new pick-and-place unit without needing to swap cylinders or machine custom stops, accelerating system bring-up.
Wear Compensation
Adjust the stroke end to take up mechanical play or seal wear in a clamping fixture over time, maintaining consistent holding force without a full cylinder rebuild.
Small Part Sorting
Quickly change the pusher stroke length on a diverter gate when switching between product sizes on a packaging line, reducing changeover time.
Is the Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X60-40 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the SCJ32X60-40 when you need to dial in a precise end position during commissioning or for format changes on a small assembly cell. If you need more force, step up to the 40 mm bore SCJ40 series, which provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. For a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC32 cylinder is a simpler alternative. A direct replacement must match the 32 mm bore, 60 mm nominal stroke, 40 mm adjust range, PT ports, and basic mounting.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
- ✓ Need to fine-tune stroke on the line?
- ✓ Nominal stroke + adjust range (-40)
- ✓ 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 SCJ32X60-40 FAQ
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 724 N. Because it is a single-rod cylinder, the push force is always greater than the pull force.
Yes, provided the old cylinder is an AirTAC SCJ32 with a 60 mm nominal stroke and 40 mm adjust range. The SCJ's body length is slightly longer than a fixed-stroke SC to house the adjusting screw. You must match the port thread (PT), mounting style, and magnet option for a direct fit.
