The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ12X20SAF is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 12 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a ball-bearing guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 85 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.
The AirTAC HLQ12X20SAF is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a linear ball-bearing guide. At 12mm bore and 20mm stroke it delivers moderate thrust for mid-range guided positioning. The double-rail ball-bearing guide provides smooth straight travel with anti-rust and dust-proof protection, and the floating joint spares the rods from side torque.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing using CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switches. The AF adjuster places an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions, and load-moment values 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.
Choose the 12mm bore when you need moderate push force in a compact footprint; a larger bore gives more thrust but check the spec table for the verified figure. The HLQ ball-bearing guide suits clean or mildly corrosive environments where anti-rust and dust-proof performance matter, contrasting with HLS cross-roller for maximum rigidity or HLF for low-height builds. Stroke 20mm falls within the bore 12 range. The AF adjuster adds a rubber stopper on the retraction side only; the extension side uses the standard bumper. Thread is PT (R thread). We route load and moment sizing to the published tables and curves on request.
Mounts a small gripper for precise part transfer between fixture positions on an assembly line.
Diverts or deposits small components at a conveyor workstation with consistent repeatable positioning.
Indexes a workpiece or tooling plate between two assembly stations with dust-proof guided travel.
AF indicates an adjustable rubber stopper fitted on the retraction side only; the extension side retains the standard bumper cushion.
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). Operating range for bore 12 is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Never exceed 0.7 MPa.
