The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X300-75B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø40mm bore and 300mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ40X300-75B is a double-acting, single-rod JIS compact cylinder built for long-stroke applications requiring adjustable extend positioning. It features an external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the forward stroke, providing a usable extension range of 225 to 300 mm. The return stroke remains completely unaffected. This made-to-order variant stretches the bore 40 standard 100 mm maximum out to 300 mm.
Because the adjuster only alters travel length and not piston area, the output force remains identical to a standard ACQ of this size, delivering 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The unit includes a male M14x1.5 piston rod end (-B) for direct load coupling, PT1/8 ports, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends to absorb end-of-stroke impact. The body retains magnetic-switch 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.

When sizing this actuator, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 981.8 N push. If your application requires a fixed 300 mm extend position without ever needing on-the-fly adjustments, a standard ACQ40X300 cylinder would suffice and save space. To order correctly, confirm the 40 mm bore, 300 mm full stroke, 75 mm adjustment window, male rod thread, and whether you need the -S magnet option for sensor switches.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 225 to 300 mm. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Force is identical to a standard ACQ bore 40 because the adjuster only changes stroke length.
An external M12x1.25 threaded stop with a lock nut mechanically limits the forward travel, allowing on-machine tuning without replacing parts. The retract stroke is unaffected. This specific model ships without a sensor magnet, though the body retains grooves for adding reed or solid-state switches if needed.
