The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X75-10S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø160mm bore and 75mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ160X75-10S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a big-bore 160mm body and an external extend stop. A threaded rod with a lock nut lets you fine-tune the extend end position on the machine without swapping parts. With a 10mm adjustment window, the usable extend range runs 65-75mm, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the piston area is unchanged, output force equals a standard ACQ of this bore, yielding 10053.1N push at 0.5MPa. It includes a 40mm piston rod, PT3/8 ports, and an M36x2.0 adjuster thread. The -S magnet works with reed or electronic solid-state switches, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers decelerate the load at each end.

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 | 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.

Dial in the exact 65-75mm extend position during heavy press commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without machining new spacers.
Modify the end stop on-the-fly for different pallet sizes in large packaging lines, utilizing the full 2050kgf max push capacity for secure actuation.
Establish precise trial end positions for large metal bending fixtures, testing window limits before finalizing the mechanical hard stop.
For context, dropping to a 140mm bore lowers 0.5MPa push force to 7696.9N, while stepping up is beyond this range's max. If your application requires a fixed extend position every cycle, a standard ACQ cylinder suffices. When ordering this adjustable unit, confirm the 160mm bore, 75mm full stroke, 10mm window, S magnet, and female M24x3.0 rod thread.
Quick checklist
It provides 10053.1N push and 9424.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 14074.3N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 2050kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 75mm with a 10mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 65-75mm.
The external M36x2.0 threaded stop with lock nut limits only the extend length, meaning force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Fixed NBR bumpers decelerate the load near stroke ends, but a plain ACQ does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
