The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X120-30SB 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 90 to 120 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X120-30SB is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring a built-in magnet and male piston rod. An external R (M27x2.0) adjuster screw lets you dial the extend stop down by 30 mm, yielding a usable forward range of 90 to 120 mm directly on the machine. Because the adjuster sets the mechanical stop rather than altering the piston area, output force remains identical to a standard SDA of this bore, delivering 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where a round-body or profile cylinder will not fit. This 100 mm bore variant uses a PT3/8 air port and a Ø32 mm rod with an M26x1.5 male thread. End-of-travel deceleration relies on a fixed NBR bumper, which is not an adjustable air cushion. A safe working load is roughly 2356 N (about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa push figure), allowing a vertical lift of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 the 90 to 120 mm extend stop to perfect bearing seating force, leveraging the 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa without swapping mechanical shims.
Adjust the mechanical stop on-site for different packaging widths, using the M27x2.0 screw to shift the end position rapidly between product runs.
Lift loads up to 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the Ø32 mm male M26x1.5 rod for robust tooling attachment in elevation platforms.
Choosing this 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. Sizing down, the SDAJ80 delivers 2513.3 N at the same pressure, marking the lower boundary for heavy pressing or lifting. Stepping up is unnecessary unless your application exceeds the 801 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. The on-site tuning window of 90 to 120 mm is ideal for production lines requiring frequent format changeovers without part swaps.
This configuration includes the -S magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches and the -B male M26x1.5 rod end. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or when the valve is centred; the piston drifts and the fixed bumper only decelerates near the stroke end. For secure load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 5497.8 N push and 4934.8 N pull. The theoretical maximum push is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external R (M27x2.0) screw shortens the extend end position by up to 30 mm, giving a 90 to 120 mm range. It functions purely as a mechanical stop and does not alter force or lock the piston mid-stroke. The built-in -S magnet works with AirTAC reed or electronic switches.
