Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X100-10S
The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X100-10S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø40mm bore and 100mm 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 ACQJ40X100-10S
The AirTAC ACQJ40X100-10S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend stroke. You get a usable extend range of 90-100mm, letting you shorten the full 100mm stroke by up to 10mm directly on the machine. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area stays the same, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore, delivering 628.3N push at 0.5MPa. It features a 16mm rod, PT1/8 porting, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration. The built-in magnet (-S) supports both reed and solid-state sensors.

| 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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 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 ACQJ40X100-10S Is Used
Machining Fixture Stops
Dial in the exact 90-100mm extend position on a CNC machining fixture during part-changeover without machining new stop collars.
Carton Forming Adjustments
Tune the extend end stop on the fly when packaging different box sizes, ensuring precise forming pressure without changing cylinders.
Assembly Press Setup
Set trial end positions on an electronic assembly press to test insertion depths before locking down the external adjuster nut.
Is the Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X100-10S the Right Cylinder?
For lower push requirements, the 32mm bore yields 402.1N at 0.5MPa, while stepping up to the 50mm bore provides 981.8N. If your extend end position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering this adjustable model, confirm the 40mm bore, 100mm full stroke, 10mm window, S magnet option, and the default female M8x1.25 rod-end thread.
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 ACQJ40X100-10S FAQ
It delivers 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 879.6N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 128kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 100mm with a 10mm adjustable window, giving a usable extend range of 90-100mm.
An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut mechanically limits how far the rod extends, shortening the stroke length without changing the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Fixed elastomer bumpers handle deceleration at the stroke ends.
