The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X150-10SB 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 ACQJ32X150-10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32mm bore and a 150mm full stroke. As a long-stroke made-to-order variant exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for this bore size, it incorporates a male M14x1.5 piston rod end (via the -B option) to couple directly to your load. It uses a PT1/8 port and a Ø16mm rod. An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend end position, providing a usable extend range of 140-150mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the adjuster alters only the travel length and not the piston area, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore. You get 402.1N of push and 301.6N of pull at 0.5MPa. The body relies on fixed elastomer NBR bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. Furthermore, the -S option equips the piston with a magnet compatible with both reed and solid-state electronic switches via the integrated sensor grooves.

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 extend stop from 140 to 150mm during product changeovers on machining centers to accommodate varying raw material lengths without swapping hardware.
Fine-tune the pusher end position on packaging lines to handle different box formats, relying on the fixed elastomer bumper to absorb the impact at high cycle rates.
Set trial end positions on automated assembly fixtures, using the M14x1.5 male rod thread to directly drive clamps and locators across a 10mm adjustment window.
Selecting this 32mm bore provides 402.1N push at 0.5MPa; sizing down to a 25mm bore drops push to 245.4N, while stepping up to a 40mm bore increases it to 628.3N. If your equipment never requires end-position adjustments, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder will suffice. Otherwise, confirm your ordering essentials: 32mm bore, 150mm full stroke, 10mm window, the -S magnet, and -B male rod thread. Note that a plain compact cylinder drifts if air pressure is lost; utilize an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe load holding.
Quick checklist
This 32mm bore cylinder 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 150mm, but the external stop allows you to shorten the extend stroke by up to 10mm, yielding a usable extend range of 140-150mm.
No, the M12x1.25 external adjuster changes only the extend travel length, leaving output force identical to a standard ACQ because the piston area is unchanged. The retract stroke is unaffected, and end-of-trroke energy is managed by fixed elastomer NBR bumpers rather than adjustable air cushions.
