The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X35-10B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 35mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X35-10B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external male-threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the extend stroke. You get a usable extension range of 25-35mm out of the 35mm full stroke, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. This mechanism alters only the travel distance, so the output force stays identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore.
Delivering 402.1N push and 301.6N pull force at 0.5MPa, this unit uses a 16mm piston rod with an M14x1.5 male rod-end thread for direct load coupling. It includes fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions, and the body features sensor grooves ready for reed or solid-state switches, 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.

Dial in the exact clamping extension on a CNC fixture during part changeovers using the external stop nut, avoiding the need to machine new hard stops.
Adjust the folding arm travel on the fly for different box heights, ensuring the M14x1.5 male rod couples precisely to the folder mechanism.
Fine-tune the extend endpoint during initial setup to test gripper reach without reprogramming the motion controller or replacing hardware.
If you need slightly less thrust, the 25mm bore yields 245.4N push at 0.5MPa, whereas stepping up to a 40mm bore provides 628.3N push. Choose this 32mm bore if 402.1N is your target and you require on-the-fly end-position tuning without swapping cylinders. A fixed-stroke ACQ is adequate if your endpoint never varies. Confirm your ordering essentials: 32mm bore, 35mm full stroke, 10mm window, male rod thread (-B), and no magnet.
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 35mm with a 10mm window, giving a usable extend range of 25-35mm.
An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend travel; force remains identical to a standard ACQ because piston area is unchanged. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions, so for high-energy impacts you should slow the approach or add an external shock absorber.
