The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X600-20S 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, 600mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X600-20S is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder from AirTAC, featuring a rear-cap adjusting screw that provides 20 mm of field-adjustable stroke end positioning. This allows for fine-tuning the 600 mm nominal stroke without replacing the cylinder, ideal for commissioning and format changes. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and is equipped with a built-in magnet for direct mounting of CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
This 32 mm bore model uses a 12 mm diameter piston rod and PT1/8 ports, with a tie-rod construction that is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552. The cylinder body length (A dimension) is 182 mm, and it includes an adjustable air cushion for smooth deceleration. The standard operating temperature range is -20 to +70 °C.

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 retract stroke end position during machine commissioning to perfectly align with a fixture or stop, compensating for minor assembly tolerances without shims.
Quickly adjust the cylinder stroke for different product sizes on a packaging line, reducing downtime between batches by simply turning the rear screw.
Take up mechanical play or seal wear over time in a clamping or pressing application, maintaining consistent force application without replacing the actuator.
Select the SCJ32X600-20S when your application requires a 600 mm stroke with the ability to precisely dial back the end position by up to 20 mm in the field. If the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, stepping up to the SCJ40 bore provides 628 N of push force. For applications needing a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC series is a more economical choice.
For a direct replacement, match this model's 32 mm bore, 600 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjustable range, PT port thread, and built-in magnet. At this stroke length, be mindful of potential rod bending under high side loads; an external guide or switching to a guided cylinder is recommended if the load is not perfectly axial.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. The maximum push force at 0.9 MPa is 724 N. The pull force is lower due to the area of the 12 mm piston rod.
Yes, provided the bore, nominal stroke, and port thread (PT) match. The SCJ32X600-20S has a slightly longer body to house the adjusting screw, so ensure you have clearance. The built-in magnet (S) must also be matched if you are using sensors.
