The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X10-10B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 10mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X10-10B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 10 mm full stroke. An external M12x1.25 threaded stop and lock nut restricts the extend end position, giving a usable extend range of 0-10 mm. The retract stroke remains fixed at its standard length. Because the piston area is unchanged, output force equals a standard ACQ, delivering 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa.
This variant features a male M14x1.5 rod-end thread for direct load coupling and uses a PT1/8 port. It includes fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. The body retains magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific SKU ships without a magnet.

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 | 402 N | 302 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 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.

For 0.5 MPa push requirements near 301.6 N, dropping to a 25 mm bore provides a smaller footprint, while stepping up to a 40 mm bore yields 628.3 N push for heavier transfers. Choose this 32 mm bore if your fixture demands roughly 402.1 N of push force within a tight axial envelope. If the end position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ is simpler; select this ACQJ only when on-the-fly extend adjustments are necessary. Confirm ordering essentials: 32 mm bore, 10 mm full stroke, 10 mm window, male rod thread, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
The 32 mm bore yields 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 562.9 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 10 mm window allows a usable extend range of 0-10 mm. It operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa, features a PT1/8 port, and the rod end has an M14x1.5 male thread.
No, the adjuster only limits how far the rod extends; the piston area remains the same, so force is identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder relies on fixed elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration, not adjustable air cushions. Note that without a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock, the cylinder will not hold its load if air pressure is lost.
