Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X20SBF
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X20SBF 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 HLQ20X20SBF
The AirTAC HLQ20X20SBF is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder pairing an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide. At bore 20 and stroke 20 mm, the table tracks straight along the anti-rust, dust-proof ball rails while the dual rod adds higher thrust and a floating joint isolates the rod from side torque. A shock absorber on the retraction side cushions the return stroke.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing via CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switches in the body slots. We verify thrust, dimensions, and load-moment figures 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 bore 20 for more thrust than smaller HLQ bores; make sure the 20 mm stroke falls within the bore-20 stroke range. The HLQ ball-bearing guide fits anti-rust, dust-proof duty; choose HLS for cross-roller rigidity or HLF for lower height. This model has a BF adjuster - a shock absorber on the retraction side only - with PT threads. Allowable load and moment values are published as tables and curves; we can help confirm them.
Applications
Gripper Traverse
Carries an end-of-arm gripper on a 20 mm stroke with the retraction-side shock absorber protecting the return stop.
Parts Divert Stage
Pushes small parts from a conveyor line with the ball-bearing guide holding tight straightness through the stroke.
Stopper Position
Acts as a guided stop that retracts smoothly under shock-absorber control to release a pallet from a station.
FAQ
What does the BF adjuster code mean on HLQ20X20SBF?
BF means a shock absorber is fitted on the retraction side only. The extension side uses the standard bumper cushion.
What is the maximum working pressure for the HLQ bore 20?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa. The operating range for bore 20 is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Keep speed between 50 and 500 mm/s with meter-out control.
