The AirTAC Airtac SCJ50 Standard Cylinder SCJ50X350-40S is a genuine double-acting SINGLE-ROD air cylinder with a rear-cap ADJUSTING SCREW: the stroke end is field-adjustable within a 40 mm range without swapping the cylinder. Ø50mm bore, 350mm nominal stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The SCJ50X350-40S delivers a field-tunable stroke end with a 40 mm rear-cap adjusting screw, letting you fine-tune the 350 mm nominal stroke without changing the cylinder. Its 50 mm bore and 20 mm piston rod generate 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 1767 N at the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa.
A body length of 194 mm (A dimension) and a 21 mm air cushion provide a compact, decelerated stop. The built-in magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the tie-rod barrel for reliable end-of-stroke sensing, ideal for automated commissioning and format changeovers.

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.
Adjust the 40 mm stroke-end screw during initial machine setup to dial in the exact stop position without swapping cylinders or machining external hard stops.
Quickly adapt the cylinder stroke for different product sizes on a packaging line, reducing downtime between batches with a simple screw adjustment.
Take up mechanical play or tooling wear over time by incrementally advancing the stroke end, maintaining consistent part contact and process quality.
Step up to the 63 mm bore SCJ for 1559 N of push at 0.5 MPa if your load exceeds this model's 982 N. For fixed-stroke applications where field adjustment is unnecessary, the standard SC50X350 is a direct alternative. This SCJ50X350-40S is a direct replacement for any AirTAC SCJ with a 50 mm bore, 350 mm nominal stroke, 40 mm adjust range, PT ports, and a magnet. At 350 mm of stroke, ensure the rod is supported against side loads; consider an external guide or a guided cylinder if bending moments are present.
Adjustable-stroke checklist
At the maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, this cylinder provides 1767 N of push force. The pull force is lower at 1485 N due to the area of the 20 mm piston rod.
A rear-cap screw sets the stroke end position within a 40 mm range, shortening the 350 mm nominal stroke. It replaces any AirTAC SCJ with the same bore, nominal stroke, adjust range, and magnet option, but cannot be swapped with a fixed-stroke SC cylinder.
