The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ32~40 Adjustable Thin-Type Cylinder ACQJ40X75-50S 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 ACQJ40X75-50S 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 extend stroke on the machine across a usable range of 25 to 75 mm, while the retract stroke remains unaffected. Because the piston area stays the same, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore.
This bore 40 unit features a 16 mm piston rod, a PT1/8 port, and a female M8x1.25 rod-end thread. The external adjuster uses an M12x1.25 thread. It includes a built-in piston magnet for electronic or reed switches and relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for deceleration.

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 your application needs less push force, the bore 32 model provides 402.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the bore 50 version yields 981.8 N push. A standard fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient if your end position never varies. To order this adjustable variant correctly, confirm the 40 mm bore, 75 mm full stroke, 50 mm window, the S magnet option, and your required rod thread.
Quick checklist
The push force is 628.3 N and pull is 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, with a push of 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa and a maximum push of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 75 mm with a 50 mm window, giving a usable extend range of 25 to 75 mm.
No, the external M12x1.25 threaded stop changes the extend stroke length only, leaving the output force unchanged from a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions, and the built-in magnet works with reed or solid-state switches.
