The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ32X90-30S 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.
The AirTAC ACQJ32X90-30S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with a 32mm bore and a 90mm full stroke. An external M12x1.25 threaded stop and lock nut lets you fine-tune the extend end position on the machine, yielding a usable extend range of 60-90mm. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area is unchanged, output force matches a standard ACQ exactly: 402.1N push and 301.6N pull at 0.5MPa. The body uses a fixed elastomer bumper at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration, and the included -S magnet works with reed or solid-state switches in the built-in sensor grooves.

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 |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 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.

This 32mm bore provides 402.1N push at 0.5MPa, sitting between the 25mm bore (245.4N push) and the 40mm bore (628.3N push). If your extend endpoint never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 32mm bore, 90mm full stroke, 30mm adjuster window, the -S magnet option, and the default female M8x1.25 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa it provides 402.1N push and 301.6N pull, with a 562.9N push at 0.7MPa and a maximum push of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. The 90mm full stroke features a 30mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 60-90mm.
The external M12x1.25 threaded stop with lock nut limits the extend length only, meaning output force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder relies on fixed elastomer bumpers for deceleration, so for high kinetic energy loads you should add an external shock absorber.
