Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X125SBF
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X125SBF is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 20 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 236 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 HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X125SBF
The AirTAC HLQ20X125SBF is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide. The 20mm bore and 125mm stroke deliver moderate thrust over a generous travel range, while the dual rods double the thrust and the floating joint protects the rods from side torque. The HLQ ball-bearing guide is anti-rust and dust-proof, making it well-suited to environments where contamination or moisture is a concern.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches include CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series, which mount in the magnetic-switch slots on the cylinder body. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions, and load-moment values 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
Choose the 20mm bore when you need moderate thrust for moving small workpieces over a long 125mm stroke. The HLQ ball-bearing guide offers anti-rust and dust-proof operation, making it the right pick where environmental protection matters more than the ultra-high rigidity of the cross-roller HLS. The BF adjuster specifies a shock absorber on the retraction side for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration. Stroke must fall within the bore 20 range from the datasheet table. Port threads are PT (standard). We can help you confirm allowable load and moment from the published Wmax/Emax tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Transfer
Ball-bearing guide provides the straight-line accuracy needed to pick components from a feeder and place them onto a printed-circuit-board assembly stage.
Small-Parts Conveyor Stop
Acts as a retractable stopper gate on a conveyor line, using the shock absorber on the retraction side to cushion the stop and protect lightweight parts.
Gripper Traverse Slide
Mounts a pneumatic gripper for lateral part-transfer between two stations; the dust-proof ball-bearing guide keeps debris from the production line out of the sliding mechanism.
FAQ
What does the BF in HLQ20X125SBF mean?
BF indicates a shock absorber on the retraction side of the stroke, providing controlled deceleration at the rod-in end. The extension side uses a standard bumper. Shock-absorber options (B, BS, BF) are available on bores 8 and above but not on bore 6.
What is the maximum operating pressure for this cylinder?
The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). For the 20mm bore the operating range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Never exceed 0.7 MPa. Proof pressure is 1.2 MPa (175 psi).
