The AirTAC Airtac SDAJ80~100 Adjustable Super Slim Cylinder SDAJ80X50-30S 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 20 to 50 mm on the machine — no shims, no part change.
The AirTAC SDAJ80X50-30S is a compact double-acting single-rod cylinder featuring an external adjustable extend stop. By turning the R (M20x1.5) screw, you can dial the extend stroke on-site between 20 and 50 mm without shims or part changes. The adjuster sets the mechanical stop position, so output force remains identical to a standard SDA of this bore, delivering 2513.3 N push at 0.5 MPa.
Its short riveted body saves axial mounting depth where larger profile cylinders will not fit. The piston rod measures 25 mm, and the -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. End deceleration relies on a fixed NBR bumper, which absorbs shock but is not an adjustable air cushion.

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 | 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.

Thread: PT standard. Related SDA-family variants: SDA (fixed stroke), SDAD (double rod), SSA/STA (single acting), SDAT (duplex), SDAW (duplex-end).
Dial the extend stop from 20 to 50 mm to accommodate varying part widths on a machining fixture without fabricating new spacers.
Lift loads up to 128.1 kg with a 2:1 margin, relying on the fixed NBR bumper to absorb end shock at the top of the travel.
Fine-tune the 2513.3 N extend thrust on the assembly line to seat components precisely before the final stroke end.
When sizing this 80 mm bore, compare it both ways: stepping down to an SDAJ63 yields 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an SDAJ100 provides 3927 N. This SDAJ80X50-30S provides a safe working load of roughly 1508 N (about 60% of its 0.5 MPa rating), translating to a vertical lift capacity near 128.1 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Choose this specific model if your machine commissioning requires frequent trial positioning or changeover. It includes the S magnet option and a female rod-end thread (M14x1.5). Note that a plain cylinder does not hold position on air loss; for load holding without live pressure, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 2513.3 N push and 2267.8 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 3518.6 N push and 3175 N pull. The theoretical maximum push is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix means a built-in magnet is present for AirTAC reed or electronic switches. The M20x1.5 adjuster screw mechanically shortens the extend stop by up to 30 mm (range 20-50 mm); it does not alter the force or lock the piston mid-stroke.
