The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X45-10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø80mm bore and 45mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ80X45-10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend stroke. You can fine-tune the extend end position on the machine without changing parts. The usable extend range is 35-45 mm, as the 10 mm adjustment window shortens the 45 mm full stroke. The retract stroke remains unaffected.
Because the piston area is unchanged, the force equals a standard ACQ of this bore. At 0.5 MPa, it delivers a 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull. The cylinder uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion. The body includes sensor grooves, though this specific unit ships without a magnet. It features a 25 mm rod, a PT3/8 port, and an M20x1.5 adjuster thread.

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 | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 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 machining center to accommodate different part thicknesses without swapping out the cylinder.
Adjust the extend end position on a packaging line to handle varying box sizes, ensuring precise flap folding during product changeover.
Set trial end positions on a light assembly press to find the optimal contact point for new components before locking the nut.
When sizing this 80 mm bore, note the 63 mm bore provides 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore yields 3927.0 N. This model offers 2513.2 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your machine never requires end-position shifts, a fixed-stroke ACQ suffices. Confirm your ordering essentials: 80 mm bore, 45 mm full stroke, 10 mm window, female rod thread, and no magnet. The standard max stroke for this bore is 100 mm.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 35-45 mm from a 45 mm full stroke with a 10 mm window. Force equals a standard ACQ: push 2513.2 N and pull 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, push 3518.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and max push 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The retract stroke is unaffected.
An external M20x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend stroke, changing only the stroke length, not the piston area, so force is identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for deceleration. This model ships without a sensor magnet, though the body retains switch grooves for adding reed or solid-state sensors.
