The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X60-30SB 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 ACQJ80X60-30SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that restricts the extend stroke. You get a usable forward travel range of 30 to 60 mm, while the retract movement remains at the full 60 mm. Because the piston area stays constant, output force matches a standard ACQ exactly.
This bore 80 unit pushes 2513.2 N and pulls 2267.8 N at 0.5 MPa, reaching 513 kgf max at 1.0 MPa. It features a male M22x1.5 rod end, PT3/8 port, and an M20x1.5 adjuster thread. Fixed NBR elastomer bumpers absorb end-impact energy, and the -S magnet enables detection via reed or solid-state switches.

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 distance on a CNC fixture during product changeovers without machining new spacers or swapping cylinders.
Fine-tune the flap folding arm extension on packaging lines to accommodate varying box heights while maintaining full thrust.
Safely test component insertion depths on an assembly press by gradually extending the stroke range from 30 mm up to the full 60 mm.
If your setup needs less push, the bore 63 version yields 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas the bore 100 jumps to 3927.0 N for heavier loads. Choose this 80 mm bore if your application requires roughly 2.5 kN of thrust and on-the-fly end-position tuning. If the forward endpoint never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is simpler and sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 60 mm full stroke, 30 mm window, -S magnet, and -B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
It provides 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518.5 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum push of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 60 mm, but the external stop allows you to set the extend travel anywhere between 30 and 60 mm; the retract stroke is unaffected.
No, the adjuster only limits how far the rod extends, so the force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions. For high-speed loads, consider an external shock absorber, and note a plain cylinder will not hold its load if air pressure is lost.
