Airtac HLH Side Rail Type Precision Slide Cylinder HLH20X15S
The AirTAC Airtac HLH Side Rail Type Precision Slide Cylinder HLH20X15S is a genuine HLH slide-table cylinder, 20 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a miniature linear roller-ball 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 HLH Side Rail Type Precision Slide Cylinder HLH20X15S
The HLH20X15S is a double-acting dual-rod slide table cylinder combining an air cylinder with a miniature linear roller-ball guide. The table moves straight with low deflection, while the dual rod doubles thrust and a floating joint protects the rod from side torque. The 20 mm bore gives higher thrust across a 15 mm stroke.
This is a genuine AirTAC part fitted with a standard magnet for CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH sensor switches. The HLH guide provides precision-assembly straightness, three port groups, and four mounting directions. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment from the datasheet or on-page 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
The 20 mm bore offers the most thrust in the HLH family, paired here with a short 15 mm stroke. The HLH miniature roller-ball guide is the choice when best straightness and precision assembly are required, with three port groups and four mounting directions for flexible installation. Stroke must be within the bore's published table. Thread is PT. Load and moment sizing is confirmed from the published Wmax, Emax, and moment tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Assembly Stage
Positions a part 15 mm for precise mating using the roller-ball guide's straight-line accuracy.
Gripper Traverse
Moves a gripper laterally for pick-and-place with rigid dual-rod slide guidance and low deflection.
Small-Parts Transfer
Transfers small components between stations with 15 mm of straight guided travel and three port groups.
FAQ
Is the magnet optional on the HLH20X15S?
No, the magnet is standard on every HLH slide table. The S in the model code confirms a magnet is fitted for use with CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH position-sensing switches in the body slots.
How is allowable load confirmed for the HLH20X15S?
We confirm allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy from the published Wmax, Emax, and moment tables plus deflection curves in the datasheet. Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa with an operating range of 0.15-0.7 MPa for the 20 mm bore.
