About the AirTAC ACQJ16

The AirTAC ACQJ16 is a double-acting stroke-adjustable compact (ultra-thin) cylinder with a 16 mm bore and an 8 mm piston rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 101 N and pulls 75 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 141 N push and 106 N pull. A rear stroke-adjustment screw lets you shorten the travel by up to the adjustment amount in the code (10-50 mm across the codes on this page). Force depends on bore and pressure only, so every stroke on this page gives the same output.

All ACQJ16 versions share M5 air ports, an M4×0.7 female rod thread (B versions have a M6×1.0 male rod end) and rubber bumpers at both ends. The cylinder runs on filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 30 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 95 stock order codes with strokes from 10 to 70 mm; catalog standard strokes run up to 60 mm, and the longer codes are non-standard strokes we already supply.

Theoretical output force (Ø16 mm)

Pressure	Push	Pull
0.5 MPa	101 N	75 N
0.7 MPa	141 N	106 N

Push = pressure × bore area; pull subtracts the Ø8 mm rod area. Usable force is lower because of friction and back-pressure.

How the ACQJ16 Order Code Is Built

ACQJ16	Series and bore (16 mm)
X100	Stroke in mm
-10	Stroke adjustment in mm (10, 20, 30, 40, 50)
S	Built-in magnet for position sensors (blank = none)
B	Male threaded rod end (blank = female)
-	Mounting: basic only
H / N	Seal: H = FKM, N = NBR (blank = standard seal)
G / T	Port thread: G = G (BSPP), T = NPT, blank = PT

Where the ACQJ16 Is Used

Pick-and-place and transfer

About 101 N at 0.5 MPa suits pushers, stoppers and transfer slides.

Packaging machines

Carton pushers, gates and diverters on packaging lines.

Sensed positioning

Magnet versions report stroke ends to the PLC through cylinder sensors.

Choosing the Right ACQJ16 Configuration

Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length, weight and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.

Then the stroke adjustment (10-50 mm): pick the amount by which you need to trim the stroke on the machine. The cylinder can be set anywhere between full stroke and full stroke minus that amount.

Then choose the mounting. Basic (no code) uses the cylinder's own mounting holes. Foot and flange mountings hold the cylinder rigid for straight-line loads; clevis and trunnion mountings let it pivot when the load moves in an arc.

Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors; the standard seal suits general automation; B gives a male threaded rod end instead of the standard female thread.

AirTAC ACQJ16 FAQ

Does the stroke change the force of an ACQJ16?

No. Every ACQJ16 gives about 101 N push and 75 N pull at 0.5 MPa, whatever the stroke.

How does the ACQJ16 stroke adjustment work?

The number after the dash is the adjustable range in mm. An ACQJ16X100-50, for example, can be set to any stroke between 50 and 100 mm with the rear adjusting screw.

What port size does the ACQJ16 use?

M5 ports, PT thread as standard.

Which mountings are available for the ACQJ16?

Basic mounting. Use foot or flange for straight-line loads, clevis or trunnion when the cylinder must pivot.

My stroke is not listed. Can I still order it?

Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke, mounting and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.

What pressure and temperature does it handle?

0.15 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa) and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.

Is there a minimum order?

No. You can order a single ACQJ16. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
