The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ32~40 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ32X85-20 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 65 to 85 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ32X85-20 is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. An M10x1.25 adjuster screw lets you dial the forward stroke down from the 85 mm maximum to 65 mm directly on the machine, eliminating the need for shims or part swaps during setup. Because the adjuster only sets the mechanical stop position, the output force remains identical to a standard SDA of this bore, delivering 402.1 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
The short riveted body saves valuable axial mounting depth where a larger profile cylinder will not fit. End-of-travel deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, meaning external shock absorbers should be considered for high-energy cycles. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet and cannot accept position switches; adding the -S option enables reed or electronic sensing.

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 extend stop from 65 to 85 mm to perfectly seat clamps on raw castings of varying widths without machining custom spacers.
Adjust the mechanical stop on the line to fold different box heights rapidly, relying on the 402.1 N push force to crease heavy corrugated board.
Set precise lower dead center for inserting bearings, using the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the end shock while hitting an exact 65 mm depth.
When sizing this 32 mm bore actuator, evaluate your force requirements against its neighbors. Dropping down to an SDAJ25 provides 245.4 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an SDAJ40 yields 628.3 N at the same pressure. This SDAJ32X85-20 sits comfortably in the middle, offering a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60% of its 402.1 N capacity) and a vertical lift capability of approximately 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Choose this model if your fixture requires frequent on-site stroke tuning across the 65 to 85 mm range. Confirm your setup needs a PT1/8 port, a female M6x1.0 rod-end thread, and a 12 mm piston rod. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve centers—the piston will drift. For load holding without live pressure, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402.1 N of push and 345.6 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Turning the M10x1.25 R screw mechanically shortens the extend end position by up to 20 mm, allowing usable strokes between 65 and 85 mm. It sets the stop position without altering force, and it is not a mid-stroke lock.
