Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X80-10
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X80-10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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 ACQJ32X80-10
The AirTAC ACQJ32X80-10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an 80mm full stroke and a 10mm external adjustment window. A threaded stop and lock nut on the rod-end side restricts extension, allowing you to set the forward end position anywhere between 70mm and 80mm directly on the machine. The retract distance remains at the full 80mm. Because the piston area is untouched, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore.
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.1N of push and 301.6N of pull force, peaking at 82 kgf maximum push at 1.0 MPa. The unit features a PT1/8 port, a 16mm rod, and an M12x1.25 adjuster thread. NBR elastomer bumpers fixed at both ends manage end-of-stroke deceleration, while the body retains sensor grooves for mounting reed or solid-state switches, though this specific unit ships without a magnet.

| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Full stroke | 80 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 ACQJ32X80-10 Is Used
Machining Fixture Stops
Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC lathe fixture between 70mm and 80mm to accommodate raw material length variations without machining new stop collars.
Assembly Line Changeover
Quickly reset the extension endpoint on a part-push mechanism during a product family changeover, using the external lock nut to set a new trial position in seconds.
Carton Forming Adjustments
Fine-tune the folding arm extension on packaging equipment to handle different carton depths, ensuring precise creases without swapping out the entire actuator.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X80-10 the Right Cylinder?
For 0.5 MPa push requirements around 301.6N, stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 245.4N, whereas moving up to a 40mm bore provides 628.3N. If your process never requires altering the forward endpoint, a fixed-stroke ACQ32X80 will achieve the same clamping results. When ordering this adjustable variant, confirm the 32mm bore, 80mm base stroke, 10mm window, female M8x1.25 rod end, and whether you need the -S magnet option for position 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 ACQJ32X80-10 FAQ
This 32mm bore cylinder has an 80mm full stroke with a 10mm window, providing a usable extend range of 70-80mm. It generates 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 port size is PT1/8.
An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend stroke; you simply turn the adjuster to shorten the forward distance from 80mm down to 70mm. The retract stroke is unaffected, and because the piston area is unchanged, the force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions.
