The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X175-75 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 ACQJ32X175-75 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32mm bore and a 175mm made-to-order long stroke, exceeding the standard 100mm maximum for this bore size. It uses an external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut on the rod-end side to restrict how far the rod extends. You can shorten the extend stroke by up to 75mm, yielding a usable extend range of 100-175mm, while the retract stroke remains unaffected.
Because the piston area is unchanged, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore, delivering 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. The body features integrated magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific SKU ships without the -S magnet. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends 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.

This 32mm bore provides 562.9N of push force at 0.7MPa. If you need less force, consider the 25mm bore (245.4N push @0.5MPa), or step up to the 40mm bore (628.3N push @0.5MPa) for higher load capacity. A standard fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient if your end position never requires on-machine adjustment. When ordering, confirm the 175mm full stroke, the 75mm adjustable window, the female M8x1.25 rod-end thread, and the PT1/8 port size.
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 175mm with a 75mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 100-175mm. The bore is 32mm, the port is PT1/8, the female rod-end thread is M8x1.25, and the external adjuster thread is M12x1.25.
No, the external stop limits the extend stroke length only, so the force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for deceleration instead of adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain cylinder like this does not hold its load on air loss; for a fail-safe hold, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
