The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X60-50SB 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 ACQJ80X60-50SB 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 10 mm up to the full 60 mm stroke directly on the machine without swapping parts. The RETRACT stroke remains unaffected, and the force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore.
Featuring a 25 mm piston rod and PT3/8 port, this model delivers 2513.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa. It includes the -S magnet for reed or solid-state switches and the -B male rod-end thread (M22x1.5) for direct load coupling. The fixed NBR elastomer bumper decelerates the load at stroke ends, operating effectively at speeds 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 10 to 60 mm extend position during press tooling setup, accommodating different material thicknesses without machining new stop collars.
Adjust the extend stroke on the fly for product changeovers on a conveyor line, ensuring the rod meets varying package dimensions accurately.
Test trial end positions on an assembly machine, tweaking the extend stop to find the optimal contact point before locking the nut for production.
Choose this 80 mm bore if your application requires 2513.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1558.6 N push, while stepping up to a 100 mm bore provides 3927.0 N push. If you do not need to vary the end position, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. Confirm your ordering essentials: 80 mm bore, 60 mm full stroke, 50 mm window, -S magnet, and -B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 10-60 mm (full 60 mm stroke minus the 50 mm window). Force is identical to a standard ACQ: 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 retract stroke is unaffected.
The external M20x1.5 threaded stop with lock nut limits only the extend stroke length, so force is unchanged. A fixed NBR elastomer bumper decelerates the load at stroke ends. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; for a fail-safe hold, use an external rod lock.
