The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X175-10SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø140mm bore and 175mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ140X175-10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 140mm bore and a 175mm full stroke. An external threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend end position, providing a usable forward range of 165 to 175mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment. Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals that of a standard ACQ of this size.
This big-bore variant delivers 7696.9N push and 7294.8N pull at 0.5MPa. It includes an M30x1.5 male rod end for direct load coupling, a PT3/8 port, and a built-in magnet for electronic or reed switches. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact at both ends, operating effectively between -20 and +70C at speeds of 30-500mm/s.

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.

Selecting this 140mm bore provides 7696.9N push at 0.5MPa. Stepping down to a 125mm bore yields 6135.9N push, while stepping up to 160mm provides 10053.1N. If your machine never requires end-position tuning, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder suffices. When ordering, confirm the 175mm full stroke, 10mm adjuster window, S magnet, and B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
It delivers 7696.9N push and 7294.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 10775.7N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 1570kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 175mm with a 10mm adjustment window, allowing a usable extend range of 165 to 175mm.
The M27x2.0 external threaded stop mechanically limits the extend length without altering piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Fixed NBR bumpers decelerate the rod near stroke ends, but a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
