The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ125~160 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ160X75-75S 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 ACQJ160X75-75S is a double-acting, JIS compact cylinder featuring a 160 mm bore and an external extend stop. A threaded rod with a lock nut lets you fine-tune the forward end position directly on the machine. With a 75 mm full stroke and a 75 mm window, the usable extend range is 0-75 mm. The return stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ of this size. You get 10053.1 N push and 9424.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The unit includes a -S piston magnet compatible with reed or solid-state sensors, fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, and a PT3/8 port. As a big-bore compact design, it supports up to 300 mm of travel.

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 extend contact point on a large metal-forming press during tooling setup, preventing over-travel without machining new spacers.
Adjust the lift height on automated conveyor pallet stops to match varying product thicknesses, using the external thread to set the exact 0-75 mm reach.
Secure heavy automotive machining fixtures by tweaking the clamping reach on the fly, accommodating part variations while maintaining 9424.8 N pull force.
This 160 mm bore provides 10053.1 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less force, the 140 mm bore yields 7696.9 N push. If you need more power, this is the largest bore in the ACQJ family, delivering a maximum 2050 kgf push at 1.0 MPa. Choose this adjustable model only if your fixture setup or product changeover requires frequent end-position tuning; a fixed-stroke ACQ is simpler if the travel never varies. Confirm your ordering code by specifying the 75 mm stroke, the 75 mm window, the -S magnet, and the default female M24x3.0 rod end.
Quick checklist
The window is 75 mm, yielding a usable extend range of 0-75 mm. Force is identical to a standard ACQ: push is 10053.1 N and pull is 9424.8 N at 0.5 MPa, push is 14074.3 N at 0.7 MPa, and max push is 2050 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external M36x2.0 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend stroke; it changes travel length only, not force. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. For high energy, add an external shock absorber. Note that a plain ACQ does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
