The AirTAC Airtac SCJ32 Standard Cylinder SCJ32X90-50 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, 90mm nominal stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ32X90-50 is a double-acting, single-rod tie-rod cylinder with a 50 mm rear adjusting screw, letting you fine-tune the stroke end position on the fly without swapping the unit. With a 32 mm bore and 12 mm rod, it delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and up to 724 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure, making it a precise workhorse for light automation tasks.
The body length A(SCJ) is 182 mm, and the integrated air cushion (21 mm) decelerates the piston smoothly at stroke end. The PT1/8 port and M10x1.25 rod thread keep connections compact, while the 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for commissioning trials, format changeovers, or taking up mechanical wear without disrupting the machine layout.

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 rear screw allows technicians to dial in the exact stroke end-stop during initial machine setup, eliminating the need for trial-and-error with fixed hard stops.
Adjust the push stroke on a packaging line diverter to perfectly align with different product widths, all from the rear cap without dismantling the conveyor.
In a repetitive clamping fixture, the adjustable stroke can be periodically shortened to compensate for pad wear, maintaining consistent clamping pressure over time.
Choose the SCJ32 when you need a compact, field-adjustable cylinder for light push/pull tasks. If you require more force, step up to the SCJ40, which provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa. For applications where the stroke is fixed and never needs field tuning, the standard SC32 fixed-stroke cylinder is a simpler, cost-effective alternative. A direct replacement must match the 32 mm bore, 90 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjust range, PT1/8 ports, and basic mounting. If your application involves significant side loads, consider adding an external guide rail, as the 12 mm rod is not designed to bear high lateral forces.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the cylinder delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. The push force increases to 724 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
Yes, if you need the added benefit of field-adjustable stroke. The SCJ32X90-50 is dimensionally compatible with the SC32 series mounting accessories (FA, LB, TC) and uses the same PT1/8 ports. Ensure the 50 mm adjustment range on the rear cap is accounted for in your machine envelope.
