The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ50~63 ACQJ63X150-30SB is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø63mm bore and 150mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The ACQJ63X150-30SB is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that fine-tunes the extend end position. You get a usable extend range of 120 to 150 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, delivering a push of 1558.6 N at 0.5 MPa.
This long-stroke variant exceeds the 100 mm standard maximum for a 63 mm bore, offering a 150 mm travel distance as a made-to-order option. It includes a male M18x1.5 piston rod end for direct load coupling, a built-in magnet for position sensing, and fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at each end. The operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and the adjuster thread is M16x1.5.

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 | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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 of 120 to 150 mm on a CNC machining fixture without machining new spacer plates.
Shift a conveyor sorting gate's extend endpoint by up to 30 mm instantly to accommodate different package widths.
Establish a precise trial end position on a packaging press to verify folding pressure before finalizing the mechanical setup.
When sizing this unit, dropping to a 50 mm bore reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 981.8 N, whereas stepping up to an 80 mm bore increases it to 2513.2 N. If your equipment never requires end-position tuning, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder will suffice. To order correctly, confirm the 63 mm bore, 150 mm full stroke, 30 mm adjustable window, the S magnet option, and the B male rod thread.
Quick checklist
The push force is 1558.6 N and pull is 1401.5 N at 0.5 MPa, with a push of 2182 N at 0.7 MPa and a maximum push of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The full stroke is 150 mm, but the external stop provides a 30 mm window, allowing a usable extend range of 120 to 150 mm.
No, the adjuster only limits how far the rod extends, so force remains identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by fixed elastomer bumpers, not adjustable air cushions. The built-in magnet works with reed or electronic solid-state switches for end-of-stroke detection.
