The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ80X5-10S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT cylinder (Ø80mm bore) whose extend end-position is set by an external M20×1.5 adjustment screw. You can dial the stroke anywhere from 0 to 5 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ80X5-10S is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external M20x1.5 adjustment screw that lets you dial the extend stop down to a 0-5 mm window directly on the machine. Because the adjuster sets the mechanical stop rather than altering the piston area, output force remains identical to a standard 80 mm bore SDA, delivering 2513.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa. The short riveted body saves valuable axial mounting depth where a longer standard cylinder would not fit.
End-of-stroke deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock but is not an adjustable air cushion. This specific configuration includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for direct mounting of AirTAC reed or electronic solid-state switches along the body grooves. Operating speed ranges from 30-500 mm/s, and the air connection uses a PT3/8 port.

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 | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 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.

Lifting a 128 kg platen using a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the 0-5 mm external stop to fine-tune the exact raise height without changing mounting hardware.
Dialing in a precise 2 mm pressing depth on a bearing seat, using the M20x1.5 adjuster to set the mechanical stop while maintaining 2513.3 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa.
Securing heavy castings inside a cramped machining cell where the compact riveted body saves axial space, and the fixed NBR bumper absorbs the 30-500 mm/s approach shock.
When sizing this unit, stepping down to an SDAJ63 yields 1558.6 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to an SDAJ100 provides 3927 N. This 80 mm bore generates a safe working load of roughly 1508 N (about 60% of its 0.5 MPa rating) and can vertically lift approximately 128.1 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Choose this model when your fixture requires exact on-site extend tuning within that 0-5 mm range.
Remember that a plain cylinder does not hold its load if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the piston will drift, as the fixed bumper only decelerates near the end of travel and the R screw is a mechanical stop, not a lock. For suspended or vertical loads, you must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Confirm your requirements for the 80 mm bore, 5 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust window, PT3/8 port, included magnet (S), and female M14x1.5 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
This 80 mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a PT3/8 air port. It generates 2513.3 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518.6 N push and 3175 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum push of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The M20x1.5 R screw shortens the extend end-position by up to 10 mm, providing a usable 0-5 mm stroke window without changing the output force. The -S option includes a built-in piston magnet compatible with both AirTAC reed and electronic solid-state switches.
