The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X35-30SB 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 ACQJ32X35-30SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and a 35mm full stroke. An external threaded stop with a lock nut limits the rod extension, providing a usable extend range of 5-35mm. Because the piston area remains unchanged, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this size. The retract stroke stays unaffected by the adjuster.
This model includes a male M14x1.5 piston rod end for direct load coupling and a built-in magnet for position sensing. It uses a PT1/8 port and relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. The external adjuster utilizes an M12x1.25 thread.

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 machining fixture without swapping out cylinder hardware during setup.
Adapt the pusher stroke length on the fly when switching between different carton sizes on a packaging line.
Establish trial end positions for pressing small subcomponents, allowing precise depth tuning before final lockdown.
For sizing context, stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 245.4N push at 0.5MPa, while a 40mm bore provides 628.3N. If your application never requires altering the end position, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering this adjustable version, confirm the 32mm bore, 35mm full stroke, 30mm adjustment window, the S magnet option, and the B male rod thread.
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 30mm adjustment window allows the extend stroke to be fine-tuned within a 5-35mm usable range.
The M12x1.25 external stop mechanically limits rod extension, changing only the stroke length without reducing output force. Deceleration relies on fixed elastomer bumpers, and the built-in magnet works with both reed and electronic solid-state switches.
