Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X30SA
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X30SA 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 HLQ20X30SA
The HLQ20X30SA is a genuine AirTAC double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder with an integrated precision ball-bearing linear guide. The ball-bearing guide delivers smooth straight-line travel with anti-rust and dust-proof qualities, suited to clean or mildly corrosive settings. A floating joint protects the rods from side torque, and the dual-rod design doubles thrust in a bore 20 body at a 30 mm stroke.
A standard magnet is included for position sensing with CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switches mounted in the body slots. The A adjuster code means adjustable rubber stoppers are fitted on both ends, letting you fine-tune the end-of-stroke position beyond the built-in bumper. We confirm all thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page specification 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
Bore 20 in the HLQ range uses a double-rail ball-bearing guide and provides higher thrust than the smaller bores for applications needing more push in a compact envelope. Choose HLQ for ball-bearing smoothness with anti-rust and dust-proof protection; pick HLS for cross-roller rigidity, HLH for miniature roller-ball precision and three port groups, or HLF for a low-height cross-roller body.
The 30 mm stroke is within the bore 20 stroke table. The A adjuster gives adjustable rubber stoppers on both extension and retraction ends, useful when you need precise end-position tuning without the higher deceleration force of a shock absorber. Thread is PT standard; G or NPT available on request. Route allowable load and moment sizing to us using the published tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Alignment Pusher
Pushes a part against a fixed stop for alignment before clamping, with adjustable rubber stoppers setting the exact end position on both ends.
Test Fixture Slide
Indexes a test probe or sensor head into contact with a device under test, relying on the dust-proof ball-bearing guide for repeatable 30 mm travel.
Tray Index Shuttle
Shuttles a small work tray between two stations on a modular assembly line, using dual-rod thrust and bumper plus stopper cushioning for a controlled 30 mm move.
FAQ
What is the difference between the A and B adjuster codes on HLQ?
The A code adds adjustable rubber stoppers on both ends, letting you fine-tune the end position and cushioning. The B code adds shock absorbers on both ends for heavier deceleration. B-type adjusters are not available on bore 6; on bore 20 both A and B are valid options.
What is the maximum operating pressure and speed range for this bore?
For bore 20 the operating pressure is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi), with a maximum working pressure of 0.7 MPa. Recommended speed is 50-500 mm/s using meter-out flow control to prevent uncontrolled end-of-stroke impact.
