The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X60-50 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 ACQJ80X60-50 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external extend-stop mechanism. An M20x1.5 threaded adjuster paired with a lock nut lets you set the forward end position directly on the machine, yielding a usable extend span of 10-60mm from the 60mm total stroke. The retract movement remains completely unaffected by this adjustment.
Output force matches a standard ACQ of identical bore, delivering 2513.2N push and 2267.8N pull at 0.5MPa, because the piston area is unchanged. This 80mm bore unit uses a PT3/8 port and a Ø25mm piston rod with a female M16x2.0 end thread. Deceleration relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends rather than adjustable air cushions, and the body retains sensor grooves even though this specific configuration ships without a magnet.

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 reach on a CNC machining center during setup, allowing operators to compensate for varying raw material lengths without fabricating custom spacer blocks.
Rapidly reposition the sealing or folding arm on a cartoning machine to accommodate different carton depths, using the external stop to find the precise travel limit.
Establish trial end positions for a pressing operation on an automated assembly line, safely testing insertion depths before locking down the final production stroke.
Selecting this 80mm bore provides 2513.2N push at 0.5MPa, sitting between the 63mm bore (1558.6N push) and the 100mm bore (3927.0N push). If your application never requires altering the forward endpoint, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder delivers the exact same power in a simpler package. When ordering, confirm the 60mm total stroke, the 50mm adjustment window, the female M16x2.0 rod end, and whether you require the -S magnet option for solid-state or reed switch sensing.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder provides 2513.2N push and 2267.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 3518.5N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum push of 513kgf at 1.0MPa. The full stroke is 60mm with a 50mm adjustment window, allowing the extend stroke to be fine-tuned between 10mm and 60mm.
No, the external M20x1.5 threaded stop alters only the forward travel distance, leaving the piston area and output force identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder relies on fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for deceleration rather than adjustable air cushions, so external shock absorbers are recommended for high-energy loads.
