Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X45-50B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X45-50B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 45mm 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 ACQJ32X45-50B
The AirTAC ACQJ32X45-50B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring a male-thread piston rod end (M14x1.5) that couples directly to your load. An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend stroke, providing a usable forward range of 0-45mm from the 45mm full stroke. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected.
Because the internal piston area stays constant, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore: 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. The body incorporates magnetic-switch grooves, though this specific SKU ships without a magnet. Travel termination relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion.

| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Full stroke | 45 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 |

| 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 ACQJ32X45-50B Is Used
Product Changeover Stops
Dial in the extend stop for varying part lengths on a machining line without swapping physical spacers or reprogramming the motion controller.
Trial End Positions
Safely test clamping reach on a new assembly fixture by starting at a short extension and gradually lengthening the stroke to find the exact contact point.
Variable Format Pushers
Adjust the push-off distance for different carton widths on a packaging conveyor, using the external lock nut to set the precise 0-45mm forward limit.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X45-50B the Right Cylinder?
If 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa is insufficient, step up to the 40mm bore (527.8N pull); conversely, the 25mm bore provides 188.9N pull for lighter jobs. Choose this adjustable unit when trial end positions or product-changeover stops demand on-the-fly tuning without machining new spacers. If your machine requires a fixed extend point every cycle, a standard ACQ cylinder is simpler. Confirm your ordering essentials: 32mm bore, 45mm full stroke, 50mm adjuster window, male rod thread, and no magnet.
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 ACQJ32X45-50B FAQ
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 50mm adjustment window on a 45mm full stroke yields a usable extend range of 0-45mm.
The external M12x1.25 stop shortens the extend stroke without changing piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration relies on a fixed elastomer bumper, not an air cushion. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; install an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
