The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ140X75-75SB 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 ACQJ140X75-75SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external M27x2.0 threaded stop with a lock nut. This mechanism limits the extend end position, providing a usable forward travel range of 0-75 mm from a 75 mm full stroke. The retract distance remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Output force mirrors a standard ACQ of identical bore size because the piston area is unchanged. Operating at 0.5 MPa yields 7696.9 N of push force and 7294.8 N of pull force. The unit includes an M30x1.5 male rod end for direct load coupling, NBR fixed elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration, and a piston magnet compatible with reed or solid-state 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.

Dialing in the exact extend contact point on a 140 mm press without machining new spacers, using the 0-75 mm window to test different material thicknesses.
Adapting a large clamping station for new part families by turning the external stop screw, avoiding the need to swap out the entire actuator assembly.
Finding the optimal end-of-stroke location on an automated welding fixture during initial runs, locking the M27x2.0 adjuster once the ideal spot is found.
Selecting this 140 mm bore actuator provides 7696.9 N push at 0.5 MPa. A smaller 125 mm bore yields 6135.9 N push, whereas scaling up to 160 mm provides 10053.1 N. If your machinery never requires end-position tuning, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 75 mm full stroke, 75 mm window, PT3/8 port, S magnet, and B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
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. The full stroke is 75 mm with a 75 mm window, allowing an adjustable extend range of 0-75 mm.
An external threaded screw physically blocks the rod from extending further, shortening the stroke without changing the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. It uses fixed NBR bumpers rather than adjustable cushions, and because it is a pneumatic cylinder, the rod will drift on air loss unless paired with an external rod lock.
