Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF20X20S
The AirTAC Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF20X20S is a genuine HLF slide-table cylinder, 20 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 125.6 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 HLF20X20S
The AirTAC HLF20X20S is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder with a 20 mm bore and 20 mm stroke. Its low-height cross-roller guide keeps the moving table on a precise straight path with minimal deflection, while the dual rods deliver higher thrust than a single-rod equivalent. A floating joint isolates the rods from side torque, preserving guide accuracy. The HLF's reduced body height is designed for applications where clearance above or below the actuator is constrained.
This is a genuine AirTAC component with a standard built-in magnet; CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches mount in the body slots. Thread type is PT. We confirm exact thrust figures, dimensions, allowable load, and moment data from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page spec table on 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
Opt for the 20 mm bore when moderate-to-higher thrust is needed in a low-height body; a larger bore yields more force. The HLF integrates a cross-roller guide into a compact, reduced-height design, fitting where vertical room is tight while retaining cross-roller accuracy. The 20 mm stroke covers short-travel guided moves. Thread type is PT. We confirm load, moment, and deflection limits from the AirTAC published tables and curves on request.
Applications
Short-Travel Part Transfer
The 20 mm guided stroke moves small parts between closely spaced stations with the cross-roller guide maintaining straight travel in a low-height body.
Gripper Actuation Traverse
A 20 mm stroke carries a gripper to pick and place small electronic components, with the dual rods providing stable thrust for consistent jaw positioning.
Assembly Press Stage
The low-height HLF body fits under a compact assembly fixture, using the 20 mm bore and cross-roller guide for a short, precise pressing or insertion move.
FAQ
Does the HLF20X20S come with a magnet, and which sensors are compatible?
Yes, the magnet is standard on every HLF slide-table model, including the HLF20X20S. Compatible sensor switches are the AirTAC CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series, which seat directly into the magnetic-switch slots on the cylinder body.
What speed range and pressure limits apply to the HLF20X20S?
Operating pressure for the 20 mm bore is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi), with a maximum working pressure of 0.7 MPa. Speed range is 50-500 mm/s; use meter-out flow control to keep within this range. Temperature range is -20 to 70 C with filtered air at 40 um.
