The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X75-30S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø140mm bore and 75mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ140X75-30S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut on the rod-end side. This mechanism limits the extend travel, allowing you to fine-tune the end position directly on your equipment without swapping parts. With a full stroke of 75 mm and a 30 mm window, the usable extend range spans 45 to 75 mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area stays constant, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore, delivering 7696.9 N push at 0.5 MPa. This big-bore compact variant integrates fixed elastomer NBR bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. Equipped with a piston magnet (-S), it supports both reed and solid-state electronic switches via its built-in grooves.

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.

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 application never requires altering the extend endpoint, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. To order this adjustable version, confirm the 140 mm bore, 75 mm full stroke, 30 mm window, -S magnet, and female M22x2.5 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
This 140 mm bore cylinder 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. The full stroke is 75 mm with a 30 mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 45-75 mm. It features a PT3/8 port and an M27x2.0 external adjuster thread.
The external threaded stop and lock nut limit only the extend stroke length, meaning the output force remains identical to a standard ACQ because the piston area is unchanged. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer NBR bumpers at each end rather than adjustable air cushions. For fail-safe load holding on air loss, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required, as the bumper only decelerates near the stroke end.
