Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X125SBS
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X125SBS 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 HLQ20X125SBS
The AirTAC HLQ20X125SBS is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder pairing an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide. The 20mm bore and 125mm stroke provide moderate thrust across a long travel distance, with dual rods doubling the thrust and a floating joint shielding the rods from side torque. The HLQ ball-bearing guide is engineered for anti-rust and dust-proof service, ideal where moisture or particulate contamination could degrade performance.
This is a genuine AirTAC part fitted with a standard magnet for position detection. Sensor switches from the CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH families install into the magnetic-switch slots machined into the body. We verify exact thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment 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
Select the 20mm bore for moderate thrust over a 125mm stroke where the ball-bearing HLQ guide provides anti-rust, dust-proof advantages over the cross-roller HLS. The BS adjuster places a shock absorber on the extension side, cushioning the outward end of stroke for heavier or faster-moving loads. Confirm the 125mm stroke is within the bore 20 range in the datasheet. Port threads are PT. Allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy are published in tables and deflection curves which we can review with you for proper sizing.
Applications
Assembly Stage Index
Positions a workpiece carrier at successive assembly stations; the extension-side shock absorber cushions the forward stop to protect delicate assembled components.
Part-Transfer Gate
Serves as a metering gate on a conveyor, extending to halt product flow and retracting to release batches. The dust-proof ball-bearing guide withstands dusty packaging environments.
Gripper Lateral Traverse
Carries a gripper head sideways between a pick station and a placement fixture, relying on ball-bearing precision for repeatable alignment.
FAQ
What does the BS in HLQ20X125SBS mean?
BS indicates a shock absorber on the extension side of the stroke, providing controlled deceleration at the rod-out end. The retraction side uses a standard bumper. Shock-absorber adjusters are available on bores 8 and above.
How fast can this slide table operate?
The operating speed range is 50-500 mm/s. Use a meter-out flow control to keep speed within this range and avoid impact damage at stroke ends. The BS shock absorber on the extension side further cushions end-of-stroke deceleration.
