The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X150-75SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø140mm bore and 150mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ140X150-75SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the EXTEND end position. With a full stroke of 150 mm and a 75 mm adjustment window, the usable extend range runs from 75 mm up to 150 mm. The RETRACT stroke remains completely unaffected by this mechanism. Because the piston area stays the same, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this 140 mm bore.
This big-bore compact variant delivers 7696.9 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It includes a male-thread piston rod end (M30x1.5) for direct load coupling, a female rod-end thread (M22x2.5), and an M27x2.0 external adjuster thread. The body uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end rather than adjustable air cushions, and the integrated piston magnet (-S) supports both reed and solid-state electronic switches.

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 | 7697 N | 7295 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 10776 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 1570 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 75 to 150 mm extend position on heavy-duty stamping presses without machining new spacer blocks during product changeovers.
Fine-tune the end stop on multi-model automotive welding fixtures to accommodate varying part heights rapidly on the factory floor.
Set precise bottoming depth on large pneumatic assembly presses, using the fixed elastomer bumper to absorb the 7696.9 N impact at 0.5 MPa.
When sizing this 140 mm bore, stepping down to a 125 mm bore yields 6135.9 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 160 mm bore provides 10053.1 N. If your machine requires a fixed extend position and never varies, a standard ACQ cylinder without the external stopper suffices. For this adjustable model, confirm the 150 mm full stroke, the 75 mm window, the -S magnet, and the -B male rod thread (M30x1.5) when ordering.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 75 to 150 mm (full 150 mm stroke minus up to 75 mm). It delivers 7696.9 N push and 7294.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 10775.7 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 1570 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external M27x2.0 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend distance without changing the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The fixed NBR bumper decelerates the rod near stroke end, but a plain ACQ does not hold its load on air loss; for a fail-safe hold, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
