The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X40-10S 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 30 to 40 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X40-10S is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. Turning the R (M27x2.0) screw lets you dial the extend position down from the 40mm maximum to 30mm directly on the machine, eliminating the need for shims or part swaps during commissioning. Because the adjuster sets the mechanical stop rather than the piston area, output force remains identical to a standard SDA of this bore, delivering 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
Designed to save axial mounting depth where a round-body or profile cylinder will not fit, this riveted-body unit integrates a built-in piston magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock but is not an adjustable air cushion. Operating speed spans 30-500 mm/s across a 0.15-1.0 MPa pressure range.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 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 exact 30-40mm extend position during press assembly setup, using the 3927 N push force to seat bearings without over-traveling.
Lift payloads up to 200.2 kg with a 2:1 margin, adjusting the stop screw to prevent the load from slamming into the upper hard stop.
Quickly reconfigure the extend endpoint on packaging equipment that handles multiple product sizes, avoiding the downtime of mechanical shim changes.
When sizing this 100mm bore actuator, evaluate your force requirements bidirectionally. Stepping down, the SDAJ80 provides 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, making this SDAJ100X40-10S the correct choice when you need the full 3927 N to overcome higher friction or move heavier masses. For context, a safe working load is roughly 2356 N, assuming a conservative 60% ratio of the 0.5 MPa push figure, and it can manage a vertical lift of about 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
This specific configuration includes a 10mm adjustment window (yielding a 30-40mm usable extend range), a PT3/8 port, and a female M18x1.5 rod-end thread. The -S code denotes the integrated magnet required for position sensing. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or when a valve is centered; the piston will drift. For load holding without live pressure, specify an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder delivers a push of 3927 N and a pull of 3524.9 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 5497.8 N and pull to 4934.8 N. The theoretical maximum push is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The R (M27x2.0) screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10mm, giving a usable 30-40mm range without altering the output force. The -S option provides a built-in piston magnet for direct mounting of AirTAC reed or electronic solid-state switches along the body grooves.
