The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Compact Cylinder ACQJ50~63 ACQJ63X70-40S is a genuine double-acting COMPACT (JIS) cylinder with an EXTERNAL adjustable stop on the extend stroke — a Ø63mm bore and 70mm full stroke. Turn the stop to fine-tune the end position on the machine without changing parts.
The AirTAC ACQJ63X70-40S is a double-acting JIS compact cylinder with an external threaded stop and lock nut that limits the extend stroke. The full stroke is 70 mm, and the 40 mm adjustment window allows you to fine-tune the extend end position anywhere from 30 mm up to 70 mm directly on the machine. The retract stroke remains unaffected. An M16x1.5 adjuster thread sets the travel limit.
Because the piston area is unchanged, the output force is identical to a standard ACQ of the same bore, delivering 1558.6 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The unit includes a -S piston magnet for position sensing and uses fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends for end-of-stroke deceleration. It operates at speeds from 30 to 500 mm/s with a PT1/4 port and a 20 mm rod.

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.

Adapts extend positions during product family changeovers on automotive assembly lines without machining new hard stops.
Dials in the exact pressing depth for different carton sizes on packaging equipment using the 30-70 mm extend range.
Allows operators to test clamping end positions on machining fixtures, finding the optimal point before final lock-down.
This 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from the 50 mm bore (981.8 N push) or down from the 80 mm bore (2513.2 N push) depending on your force requirements. If your extend position never varies, a fixed-stroke ACQ cylinder is sufficient. When ordering, confirm the 70 mm full stroke, the 40 mm window, the -S magnet option for electronic or reed switches, and the default female M10x1.5 rod-end thread.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 1558.6 N push and 1401.5 N pull, and 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum push of 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The usable extend range is 30-70 mm because the 40 mm window can shorten the 70 mm full stroke, while the retract stroke remains unaffected.
An external M16x1.5 threaded stop with a lock nut limits the extend travel, changing only the stroke length while keeping the force identical to a standard ACQ. Deceleration is handled by fixed NBR elastomer bumpers at both ends, not an adjustable air cushion. The -S magnet works with reed or solid-state switches for position feedback.
