The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-10B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 175mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X175-10B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 175mm full stroke and a male M14x1.5 rod end (-B). An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut lets you trim the extend travel by up to 10mm, yielding a usable extend range of 165-175mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected. Because the piston area stays constant, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore.
This unit is a long-stroke made-to-order variant, exceeding the 100mm standard maximum for a 32mm bore. It pushes with 402.1N at 0.5MPa and handles up to 82kgf at 1.0MPa. The body features fixed NBR elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration and includes magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific configuration 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.

Quickly dial in a new extended end position within the 165-175mm window when switching between packaging formats on a filling line.
Trial different extend endpoints during CNC fixture setup without machining new spacers or swapping the cylinder body.
Fine-tune the push depth of a 32mm bore actuator pushing components into a test rig without reprogramming the machine.
For sizing context, dropping to a 25mm bore lowers the push force to 245.4N at 0.5MPa, while stepping up to a 40mm bore increases it to 628.3N. If your application never requires end-position tuning, a fixed-stroke ACQ32X175 will suffice and cost less. When ordering this adjustable version, verify the bore, 175mm full stroke, 10mm window, male rod thread, and confirm no magnet is needed.
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 usable extend range is 165-175mm (a 10mm adjustable window subtracted from the 175mm full stroke).
No, the adjuster only limits the extend stroke length, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers, not air cushions. Note that a plain compact cylinder will drift and not hold a load if air pressure is lost; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
