The AirTAC Airtac ACQJ80-100 Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ80X90-10SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø80mm bore and 90mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The ACQJ80X90-10SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder featuring an 80mm bore and a 90mm full stroke. An external M20x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend end position, providing a usable forward range of 80 to 90mm without swapping components. The retract stroke remains completely unaffected by this adjustment. Because the internal piston area stays constant, output force equals a standard ACQ of the same size, delivering 2513.2N push at 0.5MPa.
This variant includes a built-in piston magnet for electronic or reed switches and a male M22x1.5 rod end that couples directly to your load. It uses a PT3/8 port and relies on a fixed NBR elastomer bumper at each end for deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion. Operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0MPa, with a maximum push capacity of 513kgf at 1.0MPa.

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.

Dial in the exact clamping extension on a CNC lathe bar puller, allowing rapid accommodation of varying raw material lengths without machining custom spacers.
Fine-tune the folding flap position on a packaging line during product size changeovers, ensuring precise cardboard alignment without replacing mechanical hardstops.
Set progressive trial end positions on an assembly press to test component insertion depths safely before finalizing the permanent mechanical stop distance.
When sizing this unit, consider the 63mm bore if your application requires less thrust, yielding 1558.6N push at 0.5MPa. If you need significantly more power, the 100mm bore provides 3927.0N push at 0.5MPa. If your end position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder suffices. For this adjustable model, confirm the 80mm bore, 90mm full stroke, 10mm window, the -S magnet, and the -B male rod thread for your assembly.
Quick checklist
It delivers 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 usable extend range is 80 to 90mm, created by shortening the 90mm full stroke by up to a 10mm window.
An external M20x1.5 threaded screw with a lock nut limits the forward stroke length only, leaving the retract stroke unaffected and keeping force identical to a standard ACQ. The cylinder uses fixed NBR bumpers, not adjustable air cushions, and it will not hold a load on air loss without an external rod lock.
