The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X60-10SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø80mm bore and 60mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ80X60-10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the EXTEND end position. You get a 60 mm full stroke with a 10 mm adjustment window, meaning the usable extend range is 50-60 mm. The RETRACT stroke remains completely unaffected. Because the piston area is unchanged, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore.
This bore 80 mm unit features a PT3/8 port, a 25 mm piston rod, and a male rod-end thread (M22x1.5) for direct load coupling. The external adjuster uses an M20x1.5 thread. It includes a fixed elastomer bumper at each end for end-of-stroke deceleration and a built-in piston magnet (-S) for position sensing. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-500 mm/s.

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 CNC fixture without machining custom spacers, accommodating varying raw material thicknesses.
Rapidly reposition the extend stop for a new product run on an automated assembly line, reducing downtime during format changes.
Fine-tune the final push-off position for carton folding mechanisms on the machine frame to ensure precise flap alignment.
If you need slightly less force, the bore 63 version provides 1558.6 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to bore 100 yields 3927.0 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your end position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder suffices and avoids the external adjuster hardware. When ordering this model, confirm the 80 mm bore, 60 mm full stroke, 10 mm window, the -S magnet for electronic or reed switches, and the -B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
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 full stroke is 60 mm with a 10 mm window, giving a usable extend range of 50-60 mm.
The external M20x1.5 threaded stop with lock nut limits only the extend stroke; force is unchanged because the piston area remains the same. The cylinder uses a fixed elastomer bumper for deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion. A plain ACQ-type does not hold its load on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe holding.
