The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X75-40 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 75mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X75-40 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external extend stop. A threaded adjuster with a lock nut lets you fine-tune the extend end position directly on your machinery, yielding a usable forward range of 35 to 75 mm. The return stroke remains fixed at the full 75 mm. Because the piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ of the same bore.
This 32 mm bore unit pushes 402.1 N and pulls 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa, reaching a maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a PT1/8 port and a 16 mm rod. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb impact at both ends, while integrated sensor grooves accept external reed or solid-state switches (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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 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 35-75 mm extend position on a CNC machining fixture to accommodate raw casting variations without swapping cylinder hardware.
Rapidly reposition the clamping arm end-stop during a packaging line format changeover, adjusting the stroke window for different carton widths.
Establish precise trial end positions for a testing probe in an electronics laboratory, tweaking the external M12x1.25 adjuster to find the optimal contact point.
If your setup needs less push force at 0.5 MPa, the 25 mm bore provides 245.4 N; for heavier demands, the 40 mm bore yields 628.3 N. Choose this ACQJ variant when your end-position requirements shift between fixtures or during product changeovers. If the forward stop never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. Confirm your ordering details: 32 mm bore, 75 mm full stroke, 40 mm adjustment window, female M8x1.25 rod end, and whether you require the S magnet option for sensing.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 402.1 N and a pull force of 301.6 N at 0.5 MPa, and 562.9 N push at 0.7 MPa. The maximum push force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 35 to 75 mm, achieved by shortening the full 75 mm stroke by up to the 40 mm window.
No, the adjuster only limits the extend length, so the output force remains identical to a standard ACQ because the piston area is unchanged. The retract stroke is completely unaffected. The cylinder relies on fixed elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration, and for fail-safe load holding on air loss, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
