Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B 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.

About the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B
The AirTAC ACQJ32X175-30B is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder built for adjustable extend strokes. Because the 175mm stroke exceeds the standard 100mm maximum for a 32mm bore, this unit is configured as a long-stroke, made-to-order variant. An external threaded stop with a lock nut lets you limit the rod extension, providing a usable extend range of 145 to 175mm. The retract movement remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Piston area stays constant, so output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore: 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. The body features fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-travel deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. This specific configuration includes a male M14x1.5 piston rod end for direct load coupling, and while the body retains magnetic-switch grooves, it ships without a magnet.

| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Full stroke | 175 mm |
| Adjuster thread | M12×1.25 |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 500 mm/s |
| Rod thread | M8×1.25 (F) / M14×1.5 (B) |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B Is Used
Multi-Height Fixture Clamping
Dial in the exact 145 to 175mm clamp extension on machining fixtures without machining custom spacers or swapping cylinders when raw part heights vary.
Conveyor Divert Positioning
Adjust the extend stop on a packaging line diverter to handle different carton widths on the fly, ensuring precise routing without reprogramming controls.
Prototype Press Stroke Setup
Establish the exact end-of-stroke contact point on a laboratory press by fine-tuning the external stop, preventing over-travel damage during trial assemblies.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B the Right Cylinder?
If your application only needs a 145mm extend distance, a fixed-stroke ACQ32X145 would suffice and avoids special-order wait times. For higher force requirements, stepping up to the 40mm bore yields 628.3N push at 0.5MPa; if 402.1N is too much, dropping to the 25mm bore provides 245.4N. When ordering this model, verify the 32mm bore, 175mm full stroke, 30mm adjustable window, the male rod thread (-B), and confirm that no internal magnet (-S) is required since this unit ships without one.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need on-machine end-position tuning?
- ✓ Full stroke and adjust window (mm)
- ✓ Force at your working pressure
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Female (blank) or male (B) rod thread
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Lock the adjuster nut after setting the stop.
- check The stop limits the EXTEND stroke only.
- check Avoid side load on the short piston rod.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-30B FAQ
The usable extend range is 145-175mm (175mm full stroke minus the 30mm window). It delivers 402.1N push and 301.6N pull @0.5MPa, 562.9N push @0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 82 kgf @1.0MPa. The port size is PT1/8, and the external adjuster thread is M12x1.25.
The external threaded stop with a lock nut limits only the extend length, meaning force remains identical to a standard ACQ because the piston area is unchanged. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers for deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion. Note that this model ships without a magnet and does not hold the load on air loss; for fail-safe holding, use an external rod lock.
