The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X150-10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 150mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The ACQJ32X150-10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 150mm stroke, configured as a long-stroke made-to-order variant that exceeds the standard 100mm maximum for this bore. An external M12x1.25 threaded stop and lock nut restricts the extend travel, providing a usable forward range of 140-150mm. The return stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the internal piston area is unaltered, output force matches a standard ACQ exactly, delivering 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. The unit features a 16mm rod, PT1/8 port, and fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends. While sensor grooves are machined into the body, 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.

Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC fixture during prototype runs, shortening the forward stroke by up to 10mm without swapping hardware.
Adapt a packaging line to new carton sizes instantly by tweaking the external stopper position to alter the extend endpoint on the fly.
Test various sensor or nozzle distances on a labelling machine, fine-tuning the 140-150mm forward travel until the optimal placement is found.
When sizing this actuator, consider the 25mm bore pushing 245.4N or the 40mm bore yielding 628.3N at 0.5MPa. If your setup never requires end-position adjustments, a fixed-stroke ACQ32X150 will deliver identical thrust. To order correctly, confirm the 32mm bore, 150mm full stroke, 10mm window, female M8x1.25 rod thread, and the absence of the magnet suffix.
Quick checklist
This 32mm bore actuator 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 usable extend range is 140-150mm, meaning the 10mm adjuster window allows you to shorten the forward stroke from the 150mm full mark down to 140mm.
The external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut mechanically limits how far the rod extends, shortening the stroke length only. It does not alter piston area, so thrust remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by fixed elastomer bumpers at each end, not adjustable air cushions, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-energy loads.
