The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ125X200-40S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø125mm bore and 200mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ125X200-40S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 125mm bore and a 200mm full stroke. An external M27x2.0 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the rod extension, providing a usable extend range of 160 to 200mm. Retraction travel remains fixed at the standard 200mm. Because the piston area is unchanged, output force equals a standard ACQ of this size.
This big-bore variant delivers 6135.9N push and 5733.8N pull at 0.5MPa, peaking at 1251kgf maximum push at 1.0MPa. It includes a -S piston magnet compatible with reed or solid-state switches, and uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration. The PT3/8 port and 32mm rod ensure robust pneumatic capacity for heavy-duty machinery.

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 | 6136 N | 5734 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 8590 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1251 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.

Fine-tune the pusher rod end point on an industrial packaging conveyor to handle varying oversized pallet dimensions safely.
Selecting this 125mm bore provides 6135.9N push at 0.5MPa; stepping down to a 100mm bore yields 3927.0N push, while a 140mm bore offers 7696.9N push. A fixed-stroke ACQ suffices if your extend endpoint never requires shifting. When ordering, confirm the 200mm full stroke, 40mm adjustment window, -S magnet, and the default M22x2.5 female rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
It delivers 6135.9N push and 5733.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 8590.3N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 1251kgf at 1.0MPa. The usable extend range is 160-200mm (200mm full stroke minus the 40mm window).
No, the external M27x2.0 stop only shortens the extend travel, leaving piston area and force identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
