The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X75-20 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø40mm bore and 75mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ40X75-20 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend end position. You can fine-tune the usable extend range from 55 mm up to the full 75 mm directly on your equipment, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. Because the piston area stays the same, output force equals a standard ACQ of this bore.
This 40 mm bore unit pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, with a maximum push capacity of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 16 mm piston rod, a PT1/8 port, and fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration. The body includes 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.

If you need less push force, the 32 mm bore delivers 402.1 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier loads, the 50 mm bore provides 981.8 N. Choose this 40 mm model when your application requires approximately 628 N of thrust. If your extend position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 75 mm full stroke, the 20 mm adjustment window, the female M8x1.25 rod-end thread, and whether you need the S magnet option for position sensing.
Quick checklist
It delivers a push force of 628.3 N and a pull force of 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, and 879.6 N push at 0.7 MPa. The maximum push is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 55 to 75 mm, created by the 20 mm adjustment window on the 75 mm full stroke.
The external M12x1.25 threaded stop with 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. Deceleration is handled by fixed elastomer bumpers at both ends, not an adjustable air cushion.
