The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X75-40SB 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 ACQJ140X75-40SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a big-bore 140mm body and an external stroke adjuster. A threaded stop with a lock nut restricts the extend end position, yielding a usable forward travel of 35-75mm from the 75mm full stroke, while the retract distance remains unaffected. Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ of this bore.
This SB configuration includes a male M30x1.5 piston rod end for direct coupling and a built-in magnet for position sensing. It pushes 7696.9N and pulls 7294.8N at 0.5MPa, utilizing a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion.

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 force at 0.5MPa; dropping to a 125mm bore yields 6135.9N, whereas stepping up to 160mm offers 10053.1N. If your setup never requires altering the forward end position, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder suffices. When ordering, confirm the 140mm bore, 75mm full stroke, 40mm adjustment window, the S magnet option, and the 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 75mm full stroke has a 40mm window, allowing an adjustable extend range of 35-75mm.
An external M27x2.0 threaded stop limits the extend length without altering the piston area, so force stays identical to a standard ACQ. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact at both ends; for high-energy loads, add an external shock absorber. The S magnet supports reed or solid-state switches.
