Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø160mm bore and 200mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.

About the Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S
The AirTAC ACQJ160X200-100S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 160mm bore and a 200mm full stroke. An external threaded stop with a lock nut permits on-machine extend end-position tuning without swapping parts. You can shorten the forward stroke by up to 100mm, yielding a usable extend range of 100-200mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the adjuster only limits travel, the piston area stays the same, meaning force is identical to a standard ACQ of this size. This big-bore unit delivers 10053.1N push force at 0.5 MPa and incorporates NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for fixed deceleration. The integrated -S piston magnet pairs seamlessly with reed or solid-state electronic switches via the body grooves.

| Bore size | Ø160 mm |
| Full stroke | 200 mm |
| Adjuster thread | M36×2.0 |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Rod thread | M24×3.0 (F) / M36×1.5 (B) |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø160mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 10053 N | 9425 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 14074 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 2050 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.

Where the Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S Is Used
Heavy Press Tonnage
Dial in the exact 100-200mm extend reach on a large stamping press during tooling setup, preventing over-travel without machining new spacers.
Automated Pallet Stops
Adjust the forward stop position on the fly for different pallet sizes in a heavy-duty conveyor line, accommodating product changeovers rapidly.
Large Fixture Clamping
Fine-tune the clamping reach on an automotive welding fixture to safely accommodate varying part geometries before full pressure is applied.
Is the Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160mm bore unit provides 10053.1N push and 9424.8N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less thrust, stepping down to a 140mm bore yields 7696.9N push, whereas moving up to the 160mm variant is the maximum standard compact option here. A fixed-stroke ACQ is sufficient if your end position never varies. When ordering, confirm the 200mm full stroke, the 100mm adjustment window, the -S magnet, and the default M24x3.0 female rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need on-machine end-position tuning?
- ✓ Full stroke and adjust window (mm)
- ✓ Force at your working pressure
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Lock the adjuster nut after setting the stop.
- check The stop limits the EXTEND stroke only.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X200-100S FAQ
It provides 10053.1N push and 9424.8N pull at 0.5 MPa, 14074.3N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 100-200mm, created by the 100mm adjustment window on the 200mm full stroke.
The M36x2.0 external adjuster screw limits forward travel only; retract is unaffected and force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain compact cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock for fail-safe load holding.
