The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X300-50S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 300mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The ACQJ32X300-50S is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder engineered as a long-stroke, made-to-order variant for bore 32. It features an external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut on the extend side. This mechanism lets you shorten the outward travel by up to 50 mm, yielding a usable extension range of 250 to 300 mm. The return stroke remains fixed at its full length. Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals that of a standard ACQ unit.
Operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, while the fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end decelerates the motion near the end positions. Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), the unit supports both reed and solid-state sensing via its magnetic-switch grooves. The Ø16 mm piston rod features a female M8x1.25 end thread, and air connects via a PT1/8 port.

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 32 mm bore actuator delivers 402.1 N of push and 301.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa. If your setup requires less thrust, stepping down to a 25 mm bore yields 245.4 N push; conversely, moving up to a 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N push. A standard fixed-stroke ACQ is sufficient if you never need to alter the end position after installation. When ordering, verify the 300 mm full stroke, the 50 mm adjuster window, the -S magnet option, and the female M8x1.25 rod thread.
Quick checklist
It generates 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 562.9 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 250 to 300 mm, created by shortening the 300 mm full stroke by up to the 50 mm window.
No, the external M12x1.25 stop only limits travel distance, not piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end, not an adjustable air cushion.
