The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X45-10S 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 ACQJ80X45-10S 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 35 to 45 mm on the machine without swapping parts, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. The piston rod measures 25 mm and the body uses a PT3/8 port.
Because the adjuster only alters stroke length and not piston area, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore. It delivers 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet compatible with reed or electronic solid-state switches, and fixed elastomer bumpers handle end-of-stroke 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 | 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 35 to 45 mm extend position for varying part lengths on CNC tending equipment without machining new spacers.
Accommodate different box sizes on packaging lines by turning the external M20x1.5 stopper screw to modify the extend endpoint rapidly.
Safely trial and set precise pin insertion depths on assembly presses, relying on the unchanged 2513.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
When sizing this 80 mm bore actuator, stepping down to a 63 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 1558.6 N, whereas moving up to a 100 mm bore increases it to 3927.0 N. If your application never requires end-position adjustments, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder provides the exact same power in a simpler package. To order this adjustable version correctly, confirm the 45 mm full stroke, the 10 mm window, the -S magnet option, and the default female M16x2.0 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
The force is identical to a standard ACQ bore 80: push is 2513.2 N and pull is 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, push is 3518.5 N at 0.7 MPa, and max push is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 35 to 45 mm, representing the 45 mm full stroke minus up to the 10 mm adjustment window.
The external M20x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits only the extend stroke length; the retract stroke remains unaffected. End-of-truck deceleration is handled by fixed elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. Note that a plain compact cylinder does not hold its load on air loss, so an external rod lock is recommended for fail-safe holding.
