The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X60-50S 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 ACQJ80X60-50S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the extend end position. You can fine-tune the usable extend range from 10 mm up to the full 60 mm stroke directly on your machinery, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. Because the 80 mm piston area is unchanged, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore.
This unit delivers 2513.2 N of push force and 2267.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a 513 kgf maximum push at 1.0 MPa. It incorporates a 25 mm piston rod, PT3/8 ports, and a fixed elastomer bumper at each end for reliable end-of-stroke deceleration. The -S magnet enables position detection using either reed or solid-state electronic 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 extend position from 10 to 60 mm on a CNC machining fixture when transitioning between raw casting profiles, avoiding the need to fabricate custom spacer rods.
Adjust the external stop on-the-fly during packaging line format changeovers to accommodate varying cardboard flap heights without swapping out pneumatic components.
Establish precise trial end positions for a light assembly press, tweaking the 10-60 mm window to find the optimal forming depth before finalizing mechanical hard stops.
When sizing this 80 mm bore, dropping down to a 63 mm unit reduces push force to 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 100 mm bore yields 3927.0 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application always operates at a fixed 60 mm extend length without needing trial end positions, a standard ACQ80X60 cylinder is sufficient. To order this adjustable version correctly, confirm the 80 mm bore, 60 mm full stroke, 50 mm adjuster window, the -S magnet option, and the default female M16x2.0 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 10-60 mm (a 60 mm full stroke minus the 50 mm window). It generates 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 retract stroke remains fixed at 60 mm.
No, the external M20x1.5 threaded stop only changes the extend length, not the piston area, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end, and the built-in -S magnet supports both reed and electronic solid-state switches.
