The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X80-10 is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø80mm bore and 80mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ80X80-10 is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend end position. You get a usable extend range of 70-80 mm from the 80 mm full stroke, while the retract stroke remains unaffected. The rod measures 25 mm and the body uses PT3/8 ports.
Because the piston area is unchanged, the force is identical to a standard ACQ of this bore. It delivers 2513.2 N push and 2267.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. The cylinder uses a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for end-of-travel deceleration and includes sensor grooves, 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 |

| 0.7 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.

Selecting this 80 mm bore provides 2513.2 N push at 0.5 MPa, sitting between the 63 mm bore at 1558.6 N and the 100 mm bore at 3927.0 N. If your application never requires altering the extend endpoint, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder suffices. When ordering, confirm the 80 mm bore, 80 mm full stroke, 10 mm adjuster window, female M16x2.0 rod-end thread, and that no magnet is included.
Quick checklist
The usable extend range is 70-80 mm. 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 10 mm adjustable window only shortens the extend stroke; it does not reduce these force outputs.
An external M20x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend distance, while fixed NBR bumpers decelerate the rod near stroke ends. A plain ACQ-type cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; for a fail-safe hold you must add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
