The AirTAC Airtac SCJ50 Standard Cylinder SCJ50X32-30 is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 30 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø50mm bore, 32mm nominal stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ50X32-30 is a double-acting, single-rod pneumatic cylinder with a field-adjustable stroke end, providing a 30 mm adjustment range via the rear-cap screw. In the 50 mm bore class, it delivers a push force of 982 N at 0.5 MPa and 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, using a 20 mm diameter piston rod.
This tie-rod cylinder uses PT1/4 ports and an M16x1.5 rod thread, with a 21 mm air cushion for end-of-stroke deceleration. The body length A(SCJ) is 194 mm, making it a compact solution for applications where the final stop position must be tuned during commissioning or after mechanical wear without replacing the cylinder.

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.
The 30 mm adjustment screw allows operators to dial in the exact stop position during machine commissioning without fabricating shims or mechanical stops, saving hours of setup time on a new production line.
In clamping or pressing fixtures, the adjustable stroke end can be advanced over time to compensate for tooling or pad wear, maintaining consistent clamp force without reprogramming the PLC or changing the cylinder.
For packaging lines running multiple product sizes, the rear screw lets a technician quickly change the cylinder's end-stop to match a new box or carton dimension, reducing changeover time between batches.
Choose the SCJ50X32-30 when you need to fine-tune a 32 mm stroke end position within a 30 mm window. If the force is insufficient, stepping up to a 63 mm bore provides 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. For applications requiring a fixed, non-adjustable stroke, the standard SC series is a more economical choice. A direct replacement must match the 50 mm bore, 32 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT1/4 ports, and basic mounting style.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
The push force is 982 N at 0.5 MPa and 1767 N at 0.9 MPa. The pull force is lower due to the 20 mm rod reducing the effective piston area on the retract stroke, providing 825 N at 0.5 MPa.
Yes, if you need field adjustability. The SCJ50X32-30 matches the mounting envelope of an SC50 but adds a 30 mm stroke-end adjustment range. Ensure the longer body length A(SCJ) of 194 mm fits your machine and that the nominal 32 mm stroke and PT1/4 ports are correct.
