The AirTAC Airtac SCJ40 Standard Cylinder SCJ40X300-75 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 75 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø40mm bore, 300mm nominal stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ40X300-75 is a 40 mm bore double-acting single-rod cylinder with a 75 mm rear-cap stroke adjuster, letting you fine-tune the stroke end position from 225 mm up to the full 300 mm nominal stroke without swapping the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull, driven by a 16 mm rod through PT1/4 ports.
Body length A is 185 mm plus stroke, and the adjustable cushion decelerates the piston smoothly. This model suits commissioning trials and format changeovers where the exact end stop must be dialled in on the machine. It is a genuine AirTAC tie-rod cylinder, not an ISO 15552 interchangeable type.

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 | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 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.
Dial in the exact end stop during machine setup with the 75 mm rear screw, eliminating the need to swap fixed-stroke cylinders or fabricate external hard stops.
Quickly adjust the stroke end for different product sizes on packaging or sorting lines, reducing changeover time between batches.
Compensate for tooling or gripper wear over time by slightly extending the effective stroke via the rear adjuster, maintaining consistent contact without replacing parts.
Choose this 40 mm bore when 628 N push at 0.5 MPa matches your load. If you need more force, step up to the 50 mm bore (982 N push at 0.5 MPa); for a lighter, more compact solution the 32 mm bore offers 402 N push. Because the stroke is 300 mm, check for side loads on the extended rod—an external guide or a guided cylinder may be needed for off-axis forces. For a fixed-stroke alternative without the rear screw, use the standard SC series. A direct replacement must match the 40 mm bore, 300 mm nominal stroke, 75 mm adjust range, PT ports, basic mounting, and no magnet.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 628 N and pull force is 528 N. The maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 1130 N. Because it is a single-rod cylinder, push force is always greater than pull force.
A rear-cap screw sets the stroke end position within a 75 mm range, so the effective stroke is adjustable from 225 mm to 300 mm. It directly replaces another SCJ40 with the same bore, nominal stroke, and adjust range. For a fixed-stroke application, use an SC40X300 cylinder instead.
