Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X50SA
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X50SA 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 HLQ20X50SA
The AirTAC HLQ20X50SA is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder combining an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide. The 20 mm bore and 50 mm stroke produce moderate thrust through twin rods, and the floating joint spares the rods from side torque. Adjustable rubber stoppers at both ends give finer end-position control than the basic bumper alone. The ball-bearing guide is anti-rust and dust-proof, with a double-rail layout at this bore for precise low-deflection travel.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet fitted for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches include CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series in the magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and load-moment ratings from the 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
Bore 20 mm delivers moderate thrust from a compact guided slide; step up to a larger bore if more push is needed. The HLQ ball-bearing guide suits anti-rust, dust-proof environments where cross-roller rigidity is less critical. Stroke 50 mm must sit within the bore 20 stroke table.
The A adjuster adds adjustable rubber stoppers at both ends for improved end-position repeatability over the basic bumper. Thread is PT (tapered). We can route load, moment, and deflection sizing from the published Wmax, Emax, and deflection curves.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Mounts a gripper for precise pick-and-place of components with adjustable rubber stoppers ensuring repeatable end positions on an electronics line.
Parts Transfer Stop
Transfers small parts between conveyor stations with anti-rust ball-bearing guidance and controlled stopping at both ends in a packaging cell.
Assembly Stage Traverse
Positions a sub-assembly under a test head with low-deflection dual-rod travel and rubber-stopper end control in a light-assembly station.
FAQ
What does the A in HLQ20X50SA mean for the end stops?
The A code adds adjustable rubber stoppers at both extension and retraction ends, giving finer end-position control and cushioning than the basic bumper alone. This is one of several adjuster options available on HLQ slide tables; B adds shock absorbers, and AS/AF limit the rubber stopper to one side.
How are allowable load and moment confirmed for this slide table?
Allowable load, moment, and kinetic-energy values are published as Wmax, Emax, and moment tables, with table deflection shown as curves in the datasheet. We confirm these values for your specific application on request so you do not need to estimate them.
