The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ12~25 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ20X80-75SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø20mm bore and 80mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ20X80-75SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop that lets you fine-tune the extend end position without swapping parts. An M8x1.25 adjuster screw and lock nut limit how far the rod travels out, giving a usable extend range of 5 to 80 mm. The retract stroke remains fixed at the full 80 mm.
Because the piston area is unchanged, output force matches a standard ACQ exactly: 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The 10 mm rod uses a male M8x1.25 thread for direct load coupling, and the -S piston magnet works with reed or solid-state sensors. Deceleration relies on fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACQJ datasheet. The adjustable stop shortens the EXTEND stroke only; the piston area — and therefore the force — is the same as a standard ACQ of this bore. Adjustable window options: 10/20/30/40/50/75/100 mm.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 157 N | 118 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 kgf | |
Force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore — the adjuster changes stroke length, not piston area. Actual usable force is lower due to friction; size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact clamping depth on machining centers as raw material thickness varies, preventing over-travel without re-machining stop blocks.
Adjust the pusher extension distance on the fly during product size changeovers to handle different carton widths quickly.
Set trial end positions for pressing bearings or pins, allowing operators to tweak insertion depth incrementally before finalizing the process.
Choosing this 20 mm bore provides 157.1 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down to a 16 mm bore drops push to 100.5 N, while moving up to a 25 mm bore increases it to 245.4 N. If your machine never needs to vary the extend endpoint, a fixed-stroke ACQ20 cylinder is simpler and sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 80 mm full stroke, 75 mm adjust window, -S magnet, and -B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
It delivers 157.1 N push and 117.8 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, 219.9 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 80 mm, and with the 75 mm window, the usable extend range is 5 to 80 mm.
No, the adjuster only limits how far the rod extends, leaving the retract stroke unaffected. The force remains identical to a standard ACQ because the piston area is unchanged. Fixed elastomer bumpers handle end-of-stroke deceleration, and the -S magnet enables tracking with reed or electronic switches.
