Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X5-10S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X5-10S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 5mm 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 ACQJ32X5-10S
The AirTAC ACQJ32X5-10S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the extend end position. With a full stroke of 5 mm and a 10 mm adjustment window, the usable extend range spans 0 to 5 mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this mechanism. An integrated piston magnet (-S) is included for position sensing.
Because the internal piston area is unchanged, output force matches a standard ACQ of the same bore exactly. The 32 mm bore generates 402.1 N of push force and 301.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. It uses a PT1/8 port, a 16 mm rod, and fixed elastomer NBR bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable pneumatic cushions. The external adjuster utilizes an M12x1.25 thread.

| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Full stroke | 5 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 ACQJ32X5-10S Is Used
Machine Tacking Fixtures
Dial in the exact clamping reach on welding fixtures. The 0-5 mm extend range allows operators to compensate for material thickness variations without machining new spacer blocks.
Product Changeover Stops
Adapt end-of-line conveyor stops rapidly when switching between product families. The external M12x1.25 adjuster lets you fine-tune the blocking position on the fly.
Lab Dispenser Positioning
Set precise fluid dispensing heights on laboratory automation. The lock nut secures the rod extension precisely, while the fixed elastomer bumper ensures repeatable stopping.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X5-10S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this actuator, compare its 402.1 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the next smaller 25 mm bore (245.4 N) and the larger 40 mm bore (628.3 N). A fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient if your end position never requires tweaking, but this adjustable model is ideal for trial setups. To order, confirm the 32 mm bore, 5 mm full stroke, 10 mm window, the -S magnet option, and the default female M8x1.25 rod-end thread.
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 ACQJ32X5-10S FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder delivers a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa, with a push of 562.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The maximum push is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 5 mm with a 10 mm window, allowing a usable extend range of 0 to 5 mm.
No, the external stop only limits the stroke length, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain compact cylinder will not hold a load if air pressure is lost; use an external rod lock for fail-safe holding.
