Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF12X30S
The AirTAC Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF12X30S is a genuine HLF slide-table cylinder, 12 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a low-height cross-roller guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 45.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.

About the Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF12X30S
The AirTAC HLF12X30S is a double-acting dual-rod guided slide table cylinder with a 12 mm bore and a 30 mm stroke. Its integrated cross-roller linear guide delivers high rigidity and low deflection so the table follows a precise straight path, and the low-height aluminum body keeps the vertical footprint small. Dual rods increase thrust over a single-rod design while the floating joint prevents side torque from reaching the rods.
As a genuine AirTAC part, this cylinder comes with a standard magnet for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches include CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH models that seat in the magnetic-switch slots on the cylinder body. We supply verified thrust, dimensions, load, and moment specifications from the datasheet or on-page table upon request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC HL slide-table data. Max working pressure is 0.7 MPa. The table rides on an integrated linear guide — do not apply strong impact or large moment. Allowable load and moment are published as tables and curves, and overall dimensions vary per stroke — ask us and we confirm from the datasheet.
How to choose
A 12 mm bore gives moderate thrust for light to medium guided tasks. The HLF low-height cross-roller guide is the right pick when you need cross-roller precision but cannot accommodate a full-height body. The 30 mm stroke is within the bore 12 range. This model has PT thread ports. For allowable load, moment, and deflection, refer to the published AirTAC tables and curves which we can provide.
Applications
Part Ejection
Ejects finished small parts from a machining fixture with a 30 mm straight push, guided by the cross-roller rail for repeatable positioning.
Label Applicator Slide
Slides a label applicator head into position over a product on a packing line where the low-height body fits under guide rails.
Sensor Positioning
Moves an inspection sensor across a 30 mm range to scan parts on a conveyor, relying on the cross-roller guide for straight, wobble-free travel.
FAQ
Is the magnet optional on the HLF12X30S?
No, the magnet is standard on every HLF cylinder. The S in the model code confirms a magnet is fitted for use with CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH position-sensing switches.
What speed range is supported?
Recommended travel speed is 50 to 500 mm/s using meter-out flow control. The 12 mm bore operates at 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi), with a maximum working pressure of 0.7 MPa (100 psi).
