Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X90-100B
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X90-100B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø32mm bore and 90mm 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 ACQJ32X90-100B
The AirTAC ACQJ32X90-100B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder equipped with a male-thread piston rod (M14x1.5) for direct load coupling. An external threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend end position, providing an adjustable usable extend range of 0-90 mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this mechanism.
Because the piston area is unchanged, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same 32 mm bore. The body retains magnetic-switch grooves for sensing, though this specific SKU ships without a magnet. Deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end rather than an adjustable air cushion.

| Series | ACQJ JIS compact adjustable-stroke cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Full stroke | 90 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 ACQJ32X90-100B Is Used
Machining Fixture Stops
Dial in the exact clamping reach on a CNC fixture without machining new spacers, adjusting the rod extension from 0 to 90 mm to accommodate raw part tolerances.
Product Changeover
Rapidly reposition the extend end stop on a packaging line when switching between carton sizes, using the external M12x1.25 adjuster to set the new push depth.
Assembly Press Trials
Safely test insertion depths on an automated assembly press by starting at a short stroke and gradually lengthening the extend distance until optimal seating is found.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X90-100B the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this unit, consider the 32 mm bore yielding 402.1 N push and 301.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. Stepping down to a 25 mm bore drops the push to 245.4 N, while moving up to a 40 mm bore increases it to 628.3 N. If your machine never requires end-position tuning, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. To order, confirm the 90 mm full stroke, the 100 mm adjustment window, the male rod thread, and the PT1/8 port.
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 ACQJ32X90-100B 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 maximum push of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 90 mm, and the 100 mm adjustment window allows the usable extend range to be fine-tuned anywhere from 0 to 90 mm.
The external stop uses an M12x1.25 threaded screw with a lock nut to mechanically block the rod from extending further, changing stroke length only without reducing piston force. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers for end-of-stroke deceleration and will not hold a load on air loss; use an external rod lock for fail-safe positioning.
