The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ100X80-40B 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 40 to 80 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ100X80-40B is a double-acting compact cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. A M27x2.0 adjuster screw lets you dial the outward stroke anywhere between 40 and 80 mm directly on the machine. Because the mechanism only limits travel, output force remains identical to a standard 100 mm bore SDA, delivering 3927 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
This variant uses a male M26x1.5 piston rod thread and a PT3/8 air port. The short riveted body significantly reduces axial mounting depth compared to conventional round-body units. End-of-travel deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which is not an adjustable air cushion. Note that this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet, so it cannot support reed or electronic switches.

The adjustment screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 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 40 to 80 mm extend position during press changeovers, utilizing the full 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa without swapping mechanical spacers.
Secure oversized workholding fixtures where axial space is restricted, benefiting from the compact riveted body and the robust 32 mm male rod end.
Adjust the downward stop on the fly for varying material heights, achieving a safe working load of roughly 2356 N for a 2:1 vertical lift margin.
When sizing this actuator, compare its 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa against adjacent bores. Stepping down, the SDAJ80 provides 2513.3 N, which may be insufficient for heavy loads, whereas stepping up is impossible as 100 mm is the largest available bore in this series. This model is ideal for setups requiring on-site stroke tuning to perfect end positions without machining new parts. Keep in mind the male M26x1.5 rod thread and 40 mm adjustment window for your mounting interfaces.
Regarding load management, the fixed NBR bumper only decelerates the piston near the end of travel and the R screw acts solely as a mechanical stop. A plain cylinder does not hold position if air pressure drops or the valve is centered. To safely suspend loads, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3524.9 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 5497.8 N and pull to 4934.8 N. The theoretical maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The M27x2.0 adjuster screw mechanically shortens the extend stop from the 80 mm maximum down to 40 mm without altering the output force. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot accept AirTAC reed or electronic switches.
