The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X50-50 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 0 to 50 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X50-50 is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. A M27x2.0 adjuster screw lets you dial the forward stroke from 0 to 50 mm directly on the machine, eliminating the need for shims or part swaps during changeovers. Retract travel remains full length. The short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where round-body or profile cylinders cannot fit.
Because the adjuster sets the mechanical stop rather than the piston area, output force equals a standard SDA of this bore, delivering about 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa. End shock is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which decelerates the stroke end but is not an adjustable air cushion. Note that this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot support sensing switches.

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 exact 0-50 mm extend stop for pressing bearings without swapping mechanical spacers, leveraging 3927 N of push force.
Adjust the forward endpoint on the fly during product family changeovers to position heavy jigs accurately in compact machine frames.
Lift loads up to 200.2 kg with a 2:1 margin; the fixed NBR bumper absorbs the end shock while the R screw sets the exact raise height.
When sizing this 100 mm bore actuator, consider the SDAJ80 as the next step down, providing 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa. Moving up from 100 mm hits the top of this compact family range. The 3927 N output at 0.5 MPa yields a safe working load around 2356 N (roughly 60 percent of capacity) and can manage a vertical lift of about 200.2 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
On-machine stroke tuning benefits setups requiring frequent trial positioning. Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or valve centring; the piston drifts and the fixed bumper only decelerates near the end. For secure load holding without live pressure, specify an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. This model features a 100 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 50 mm window, PT3/8 port, female rod thread, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
This 100 mm bore double-acting cylinder delivers 3927 N push and 3524.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497.8 N push and 4934.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The M27x2.0 external screw mechanically shortens the extend endpoint from 50 mm down to 0 mm without changing the output force. It acts as a physical stop and does not lock the piston mid-stroke. This SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so magnetic switches cannot be used.
