The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X100-50S 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 50 to 100 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X100-50S is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder engineered for heavy-duty positioning. An external R (M27x2.0) adjuster screw lets you dial the extend stop directly on the machine between 50 and 100 mm, eliminating the need for shims or part swaps during changeovers. The short riveted body saves valuable axial mounting depth where a larger profile cylinder will not fit. Force remains identical to a standard SDA of this bore, delivering 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
This 100 mm bore unit features a 32 mm piston rod and a PT3/8 air port. The built-in magnet (-S) supports AirTAC reed or electronic solid-state switches mounted in the body grooves. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock but is not an adjustable air cushion. Operating speed ranges from 30 to 500 mm/s across a 0.15 to 1.0 MPa pressure range.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 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 50-100 mm extend stop during initial tooling setup to apply precise 3927 N clamping force without swapping physical spacers.
Fine-tune the actuation reach on the fly for varying product sizes, using the M27x2.0 adjuster to reposition the diverter blade accurately.
Set a specific lower travel limit for a 200.2 kg lift fixture, relying on the fixed NBR bumper to absorb the end-of-stroke shock safely.
When sizing this model, evaluate both directions: stepping down to an SDAJ80 yields 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas this 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. A safe working load is roughly 2356 N, maintaining a 2:1 safety margin, and it can vertically lift about 200.2 kg under the same conditions. Choose this 100 mm option if your fixture demands high thrust within a compact footprint. Confirm your required extend window (50-100 mm), port size (PT3/8), and the female M18x1.5 rod-end thread.
The on-site adjustability is perfect for trial positioning and setup-heavy production lines. However, the mechanical stop and fixed bumper do not secure the load if air pressure drops. For load holding without live pressure, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet ensures position feedback capability when paired with AirTAC sensors.
Quick checklist
This 100 mm bore cylinder delivers 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 5497.8 N. The theoretical maximum push is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The adjustable stop does not alter these force values.
The external R (M27x2.0) screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm, allowing an on-machine range of 50 to 100 mm. The included -S magnet enables position detection using AirTAC reed or electronic solid-state switches. The adjuster acts only as a mechanical stop, not a mid-stroke lock.
