Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X60-30B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X60-30B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 60mm 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 ACQJ32X60-30B
The AirTAC ACQJ32X60-30B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32mm bore and 60mm full stroke. An external threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend end position, allowing you to fine-tune the usable extend range from 30mm up to 60mm directly on the machine. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area is unchanged, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore, delivering 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5 MPa. This unit includes a male M14x1.5 piston rod end for direct load coupling. It features fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends and integrated sensor grooves, though this specific configuration ships without a magnet. The port size is PT1/8 and the adjuster thread is M12x1.25.

| 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 ACQJ32X60-30B Is Used
Machining Fixture Stops
Dial in the exact extend position from 30 to 60mm to accommodate varying raw material thicknesses on a CNC milling fixture without machining new stop blocks.
Product Changeover Diverter
Quickly retune the extend stroke by up to 30mm on a packaging line diverter gate when switching between different carton lengths.
Assembly Press Trial
Safely test and incrementally increase the extend reach on an automated press during initial part setup, preventing damage to tooling.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X60-30B the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32mm bore actuator, note the neighbouring options: stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 245.4N push force, while moving up to a 40mm bore provides 628.3N at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires a fixed extend end position and no on-the-fly adjustments, a standard ACQ cylinder will suffice. To order this adjustable version correctly, confirm the 32mm bore, 60mm full stroke, 30mm adjustment window, the male rod thread (-B), and whether you require the -S magnet option for electronic or reed switch sensing.
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 ACQJ32X60-30B FAQ
The usable extend range is 30-60mm (a 60mm full stroke minus the 30mm adjustment window). The force is identical to a standard ACQ: 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5 MPa, 562.9N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The retract stroke is unaffected by the adjuster.
An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend travel without altering the piston area, so force remains unchanged. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers rather than adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; for a fail-safe hold, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
