The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X70-40B is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø80mm bore and 70mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The ACQJ80X70-40B is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an external threaded stop with a lock nut that limits the extend end position. You get a usable forward range of 30 to 70 mm, while the retract stroke remains completely unaffected. Because the piston area stays the same, output force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore.
This variant includes a male M22x1.5 rod-end thread for direct load coupling and uses a PT3/8 port. It carries no internal magnet, yet the body retains sensor grooves for adding switches later. A fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end handles end-of-stroke deceleration.

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.

| 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 stop from 30 to 70 mm on the fly when changing workpiece heights on a machining fixture.
Reposition the extend limit without swapping cylinders or mechanical spacers during a packaging line format change.
Fine-tune the forward stroke during testing on automated assembly equipment to find the optimal clamping depth.
Choosing this 80 mm bore yields 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If you need less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore provides 1558.6 N push; moving up to 100 mm offers 3927.0 N. A fixed-stroke ACQ is sufficient if your end position never varies. Confirm your ordering details: 80 mm bore, 70 mm full stroke, 40 mm window, male rod thread, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
It delivers 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 70 mm with a 40 mm window, giving a usable extend range of 30 to 70 mm.
The M20x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits only the extend length, meaning force remains identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed elastomer bumpers for deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion or load-holding brake. For fail-safe load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock.
