The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X250-75S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø140mm bore and 250mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ140X250-75S is a double-acting, big-bore JIS compact cylinder engineered for precise extend-end tuning. An external M27x2.0 threaded stop and lock nut lets you shorten the forward stroke by up to 75mm directly on the machine. This yields a usable extension span of 175 to 250mm, while the retract distance remains fixed at 250mm. Operating between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa, it integrates a piston magnet for position sensing.
Because the adjustment solely limits travel without altering piston area, output force stays identical to a standard ACQ of this size. You get 7696.9N push and 7294.8N pull at 0.5MPa, climbing to 10775.7N push at 0.7MPa. The Ø32mm rod features an M22x2.5 female end, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact at both extremes rather than relying on 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 | 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 175-250mm extend position during heavy press tooling changes without machining new spacers.
Accommodate varying chassis frame widths on the fly by tweaking the external stop for rapid model changeover.
Test different clamping heights on large assembly lifts by limiting the forward stroke to prevent over-travel.
Selecting this 140mm bore provides massive thrust up to 1570kgf at 1.0MPa. If your application needs less force, stepping down to a Ø100 bore yields 3927.0N push at 0.5MPa; conversely, a Ø160 bore offers 10053.1N push if higher capacity is required. Choose this adjustable model only if your setup requires on-the-fly end-position changes across a 175-250mm window. For fixed travel, a standard ACQ cylinder is simpler. Confirm your requirements for the S magnet, PT3/8 port, M22x2.5 female rod thread, and the 75mm adjustment window when ordering.
Quick checklist
This big-bore cylinder 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 250mm, but the external stop provides a 75mm window, allowing a usable extend range of 175 to 250mm.
No, the adjuster only changes the extend length, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end, not adjustable air cushions. Note that this cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost; use an external rod lock for fail-safe load holding.
