The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X100-30B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder (Ø100mm bore) whose extend end-position is set by an external M27×2.0 adjustment screw. You can dial the stroke anywhere from 70 to 100 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X100-30B is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a 100 mm bore and an external adjustable extend stop. Turning the R (M27x2.0) screw lets you dial the forward stroke down by up to 30 mm, providing a usable extension range of 70 to 100 mm directly on the machine. Force remains identical to a standard SDA of this size, delivering 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
This model uses a male-threaded piston rod (M26x1.5) and a PT3/8 air port. The short riveted body saves 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. Note that this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches without upgrading to the -S variant.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 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 | 3927 N | 3525 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 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 in the 70-100 mm extend stop on heavy stamping rigs to test material deflection before finalizing the mechanical stop position.
Reposition the 3927 N push endpoint quickly when swapping out large machining fixtures, avoiding the need to manufacture custom spacer shims.
Safely lift 200.2 kg loads with a 2:1 margin while fine-tuning the exact lowering depth during automated palletizing commissioning.
When sizing this actuator, evaluate the force margins both ways. Stepping down to an SDAJ80 yields 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas this 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. This higher capacity translates to a safe working load of roughly 2356 N (about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa figure) and a vertical lift capability of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Choose the 100 mm bore if the 80 mm variant leaves you short on thrust.
This configuration is ideal for heavy setups requiring frequent changeovers or trial positioning. Confirm the 100 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment window, PT3/8 port, and the male M26x1.5 rod thread for your mounting interface. Because the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the stroke end, a plain cylinder does not hold the load if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push and 3524.9 N of pull. At 0.7 MPa the push increases to 5497.8 N and the pull to 4934.8 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external R (M27x2.0) screw mechanically limits the forward stroke. You can reduce the 100 mm maximum extension down to 70 mm without changing parts. This sets the stop position only; it does not alter the output force or lock the piston mid-stroke.
