Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF20X30S
The AirTAC Airtac HLF Ultra-Slim Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLF20X30S 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 HLF20X30S
The AirTAC HLF20X30S is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates a cross-roller linear guide with a low-height body, giving the moving table precise straight travel in a reduced vertical profile. The 20 mm bore delivers higher thrust for a bigger bore, and the dual-rod layout doubles that thrust while a floating joint spares the rods from side torque. At 30 mm stroke this model suits applications where compact mounting height matters as much as guided accuracy.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing using CMSH, DMSH or EMSH series switches. We confirm thrust, overall dimensions and allowable load-moment values from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page spec table on request so you can size with confidence.

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
Choose the 20 mm bore when you need more push than smaller bores provide; the on-page thrust table lists the exact value at your operating pressure. The HLF sub-family is the pick when a low-height cross-roller guide is required - it offers cross-roller rigidity and precision in a slimmer body than the HLS, with two port sets for flexible plumbing. Confirm the 30 mm stroke is within the bore 20 stroke table in the datasheet. This listing uses PT threads; G or NPT thread options are available as separate model codes.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Mount a small gripper on the low-height table for precise vertical pick-and-place where headroom under a mechanism is limited.
Parts Transfer Stop
Use the guided 30 mm stroke as a brief transfer push-off or alignment stop at a conveyor station, relying on cross-roller rigidity for repeatable positioning.
Assembly Stage Traverse
Index a workpiece or sub-assembly laterally between stations with the dual-rod thrust and low-profile body fitting inside a tight fixture envelope.
FAQ
What makes the HLF different from the HLS slide table?
Both use a cross-roller guide, but the HLF has a reduced-height body and two port sets instead of the HLS standard-height body. The HLF is chosen when vertical space is constrained; the HLS is chosen when maximum rigidity and load capacity at full height are the priority.
What is the maximum operating pressure for the HLF20X30S?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). For the 20 mm bore the operating range is 0.15 to 0.7 MPa (22 to 100 psi). Speed should be controlled with meter-out flow to stay within the rated 50 to 500 mm/s range.
