Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X50-10
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X50-10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 ACQJ32X50-10
The AirTAC ACQJ32X50-10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend end position. You can fine-tune the usable extend range from 40 to 50 mm on the machine without swapping parts, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. It features a 16 mm piston rod, a PT1/8 port, and a female M8x1.25 rod-end thread.
Because the adjuster only alters stroke length and not the piston area, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore. At 0.5 MPa, it delivers 402.1 N of push force and 301.6 N of pull force. The cylinder body includes fixed elastomer NBR bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration and retains magnetic-switch grooves, 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.
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 ACQJ32X50-10 Is Used
Machining Fixture Stops
Dial in the exact 40-50 mm clamping extension on a milling fixture to accommodate different raw material thicknesses without machining new spacers.
Assembly Line Changeover
Quickly reposition the extend endpoint during product family changeovers on an automated assembly press to handle varied component widths.
Carton Flap Clearing
Adjust the pusher rod outward to safely clear varying carton flap profiles before applying sealing tape on a continuous packaging belt.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X50-10 the Right Cylinder?
If you need slightly less force, the 25 mm bore provides 245.4 N push @0.5 MPa, or for greater thrust, the 40 mm bore yields 628.3 N push @0.5 MPa. A fixed-stroke ACQ32X50 is sufficient if your end position never requires adjustment. When ordering this adjustable unit, confirm the 32 mm bore, 50 mm full stroke, 10 mm window, female rod thread, and whether you require the -S magnet option for sensor feedback.
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 ACQJ32X50-10 FAQ
The usable extend range is 40-50 mm (50 mm full stroke minus up to 10 mm). It generates 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull @0.5 MPa, 562.9 N push @0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 82 kgf @1.0 MPa. The force is identical to a standard ACQ because the adjuster only changes stroke length.
An M12x1.25 external threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend stroke, while fixed elastomer bumpers decelerate the rod near both ends. A plain ACQ-type does not hold its load on air loss or with a centered valve; the rod drifts, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for fail-safe holding.
