The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ50~63 Adjustable Ultra-Thin Cylinder SDAJ50X65-40 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder (Ø50mm bore) whose extend end-position is set by an external M16×1.5 adjustment screw. You can dial the stroke anywhere from 25 to 65 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ50X65-40 is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external extend stop. A M16x1.5 adjuster screw lets you dial the outward stroke on the machine between 25 and 65 mm, removing the need for shims or part swaps during changeovers. Retract travel remains full length.
Because the adjuster sets the mechanical stop rather than altering the piston area, output force equals a standard 50 mm bore SDA. You get 981.7 N of push at 0.5 MPa. The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a round-body unit will not fit, and a fixed NBR bumper decelerates the stroke end. This SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot host sensing switches.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 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 | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 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 25-65 mm extend stop to secure raw castings of varying widths against a fixture stop without machining custom spacers.
Fine-tune the push rod position on the fly for different box heights, using the 981.7 N force to neatly fold heavy corrugated flaps.
Adjust the mechanical end-stop on-site to set precise layer heights for varied pallet loads, relying on the fixed NBR bumper for end deceleration.
When sizing this 50 mm bore, check both neighbours. Dropping down to the SDAJ40 yields 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the SDAJ63 provides 1558.6 N. This model provides a safe working load of roughly 589 N (about 60 percent of the 981.7 N figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity near 50 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Choose this unit if your fixture requires frequent extend-position tuning. It uses a PT1/4 port, a 20 mm rod with a female M10x1.5 thread, and operates at 30-500 mm/s. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost; the fixed bumper only decelerates near the end and is not a lock. For load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 981.7 N push and 824.7 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it delivers 1374.4 N push and 1154.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum push is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Turning the M16x1.5 external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, allowing an outward reach between 25 and 65 mm. This SKU has no piston magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches.
