The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ32~40 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ32X45-20B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder (Ø32mm bore) whose extend end-position is set by an external M10×1.25 adjustment screw. You can dial the stroke anywhere from 25 to 45 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ32X45-20B is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. By turning the R (M10x1.25) screw, you shorten the forward stroke by up to 20 mm directly on the machine, yielding a usable extend range of 25 to 45 mm without swapping shims or components. Retract remains full length. Because the adjuster dictates the mechanical stop rather than the piston area, output force equals a standard SDA of this bore, delivering about 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa.
This variant uses a male-threaded M10x1.25 piston rod and lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot host reed or electronic switches. The short riveted body minimizes axial mounting depth where space is tight, while a fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end. Note that the bumper is not an adjustable air cushion, and the mechanical stop is not a mid-stroke lock.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm. Force is unchanged from a standard SDA of the same bore. Specifications follow the official AirTAC SDAJ datasheet.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Force matches a standard SDA of the same bore; the adjuster only sets the stop position, not the area. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction.

Dial the M10x1.25 stop screw to set precise 25-45 mm extend positions during initial fixture setup, avoiding part changes when tuning the 402.1 N push force.
Quickly adjust the mechanical end stop for different package heights on a conveyor, leveraging the compact riveted body to fit tight changeover stations.
Use the 20 mm adjustment window to safely test multiple extend endpoints for a new process, relying on the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the 563 N @0.7 MPa impact.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it both ways: stepping down to an SDAJ25 yields 245.4 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to an SDAJ40 provides 628.3 N. At 0.5 MPa this SDAJ32 delivers 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull, translating to a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60 percent of capacity) or a vertical lift of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 margin.
Choose this male-rod (M10x1.25) configuration when your tooling requires a threaded attachment point. Confirm your setup needs the 25-45 mm on-machine tuning window and the PT1/8 port. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve centers; the fixed bumper only absorbs end shock. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a PT1/8 port. It generates 402.1 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external R (M10x1.25) screw mechanically shortens the extend stroke from the 45 mm maximum down to 25 mm without changing the force. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches; choose the -S variant for sensing.
