The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X125-75 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø40mm bore and 125mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ40X125-75 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the extend stroke. This long-stroke made-to-order variant provides a full 125mm of travel, while the -75mm window allows you to fine-tune the usable extend range from 50mm up to 125mm directly on the machine. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Because the piston area stays constant, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore, delivering 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa. The body incorporates fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. It features a 16mm piston rod with a female M8x1.25 thread end, a PT1/8 port, and integrated sensor grooves, though 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 |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 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.

Dial in the exact clamping extension on a CNC lathe without machining custom spacers, accommodating different raw material lengths rapidly.
Adjust the flap-folding arm end position on the fly during product changeover to handle varying box heights without swapping pneumatic components.
Set trial end positions for pressing bearings or pins, allowing operators to tweak the 50-125mm extend range to prevent over-travel and part damage.
If you need less extension force, the 32mm bore yields 402.1N push at 0.5MPa, whereas stepping up to the 50mm bore provides 981.8N. Remember that this 125mm stroke exceeds the 100mm standard maximum for a 40mm bore, making it a long-stroke variant. If your end position never changes, a fixed-stroke ACQ is simpler, but for varying fixtures, this model is ideal. When ordering, verify the 40mm bore, 125mm full stroke, 75mm window, female rod thread, and whether you need the -S magnet option for sensing.
Quick checklist
This cylinder 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 125mm, and the -75mm window allows the extend stroke to be shortened to a usable range of 50-125mm. The external adjuster features an M12x1.25 thread.
No, the external threaded stop changes only the extend stroke length, not the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, not adjustable air cushions. Note that this model ships without a sensor magnet, though the body retains switch grooves for retrofitting if needed.
