The AirTAC Airtac SCJ50 Standard Cylinder SCJ50X130-100S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 100 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø50mm bore, 130mm nominal stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ50X130-100S is a 50 mm bore double-acting single-rod cylinder with a rear adjusting screw that provides up to 100 mm of field-adjustable stroke reduction, letting you fine-tune the end position from 130 mm down to 30 mm without swapping the cylinder. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 982 N push and 825 N pull, making it a capable mid-range actuator for tasks that need frequent end-stop changes.
This model includes a built-in magnet (-S suffix), so standard CMSG/DMSG/EMSG reed or solid-state sensors clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke detection. The 20 mm rod, PT1/4 ports, and 21 mm air cushion are standard for the 50 mm SCJ family, and the body length A(SCJ) is 194 mm—slightly longer than the fixed-stroke SC due to the rear adjuster housing.

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 | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 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 stroke end position during machine commissioning without cutting brackets or adding hard stops. The 100 mm screw range lets technicians quickly adapt to as-built dimensions.
Adjust the push stroke for different product sizes on a packaging or sorting line. Operators can reset the stop in seconds when switching between short and tall box formats.
Take up mechanical wear in clamping or pressing fixtures over time. The rear screw lets maintenance teams restore the original clamped position without replacing the cylinder or tooling.
Choose this 50 mm bore when the 40 mm bore's 628 N push at 0.5 MPa is marginal; if you need more force, the 63 mm bore delivers 1559 N at the same pressure. The 100 mm adjustment range suits processes with wide format changes or where the stroke must be dialled in over a long commissioning window. If the stroke is fixed and never needs field adjustment, a standard SC50X130 is a simpler, slightly shorter alternative.
For replacement, match an AirTAC SCJ cylinder with 50 mm bore, 130 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust range, PT1/4 ports, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option. At 130 mm nominal stroke, rod bending from side load is not a primary concern, but for any off-axis force, guide the load externally or consider a guided cylinder.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the 50 mm bore generates 982 N push and 825 N pull. Maximum push force at the 0.9 MPa operating limit is 1767 N. The adjustable stroke screw changes only the end position, not the cylinder's force output.
Yes, if the mounting and porting match. The SCJ50 body is slightly longer (194 mm A-length) to house the adjusting screw. Ensure you have clearance for the rear adjuster and order the same PT1/4 port and -S magnet configuration to maintain sensor compatibility.
