The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X100-10SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 100mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X100-10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut to fine-tune the extend endpoint. You get a usable extend range of 90-100mm, set by the 10mm adjustment window, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore: 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. This SB configuration includes a male M14x1.5 rod-end thread for direct load coupling and a piston magnet for position sensing. It uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end rather than adjustable air cushions.

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.

Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC lathe bar feeder, allowing operators to tweak the 90-100mm extend point for different raw material lengths without swapping hardware.
Adjust the folding arm extension on a packaging line to accommodate varied box depths, utilizing the external M12x1.25 stopper screw to rapidly set new format endpoints.

This 32mm bore delivers 402.1N push at 0.5MPa. If you need less force, a 25mm bore provides 245.4N push; for heavier jobs, a 40mm bore yields 628.3N push. A fixed-stroke ACQ is sufficient if your end position never varies. When ordering, confirm the 100mm full stroke, 10mm window, S magnet, and B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
It delivers 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa, 562.9N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 100mm with a 10mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 90-100mm.
The M12x1.25 threaded stop with lock nut physically limits rod extension, changing only the stroke length while keeping force identical to a standard ACQ. It uses fixed elastomer bumpers, and since it is a plain cylinder, it will not hold the load on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
