The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X50-30B 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 20 to 50 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X50-30B is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. Turning the R (M27x2.0) screw lets you dial the outward stroke on-site anywhere between 20 and 50 mm, eliminating the need for shims or part swaps during machine commissioning. Because the adjuster only sets the mechanical stop position 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.
This model uses a short riveted body to save axial mounting depth where a larger profile cylinder will not fit. It features a male-threaded piston rod (M26x1.5) for direct load attachment and a fixed NBR bumper at each end to decelerate the stroke. Note that this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot accept reed or electronic switches.

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 20-50 mm extend stop during setup to set exact forming depth on a 200 kg platen without machining new spacers.
Rapidly changeover the outward stroke for different part heights, relying on the full 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa to seat heavy components.
Fine-tune the lift height on-site to find the optimal pick point for a 2356 N safe working load before locking down the machine sequence.
When sizing this unit, evaluate both neighboring bores against your real payload. Stepping down to the SDAJ80 yields 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas this 100 mm bore provides 3927 N, giving a safe working load of roughly 2356 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure) and a vertical lift capacity of approximately 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Choose this larger bore if your changeover process requires heavy trial positioning that the smaller unit cannot drive.
Confirm the 100 mm bore, 50 mm maximum stroke, 30 mm adjustment window, and PT3/8 port match your manifold. This variant includes the -B male M26x1.5 rod end and no -S magnet. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or valve centering; the piston drifts and the fixed bumper only decelerates near the end. For a held load, specify an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 100 mm bore cylinder features a PT3/8 air port and delivers 3927 N push / 3524.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497.8 N push / 4934.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The M27x2.0 adjuster screw mechanically shortens the extend stop from the 50 mm maximum down to 20 mm without changing the force. This specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot take a switch; you would need the -S variant to use reed or electronic sensors.
