Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X50SBF
The AirTAC Airtac HLQ Dual-Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQ20X50SBF 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 HLQ20X50SBF
The HLQ20X50SBF is a genuine AirTAC double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that combines an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide for straight, low-deflection guided motion. The 20 mm bore and 50 mm stroke give moderate thrust for mid-range guided tasks, the dual rod doubles the push, and the floating joint keeps side torque off the rod. The BF adjuster places a shock absorber on the retraction side, cushioning the return end of travel for heavier or faster-moving loads.
Magnet is standard, with body slots for CMSH, DMSH or EMSH sensor switches. Operating pressure is 0.15-0.7 MPa and the ball-bearing rail is anti-rust and dust-proof. We confirm thrust, dimensions, allowable load and moment from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page 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 20 mm bore for higher thrust than smaller HLQ bores while keeping the ball-bearing guide's precision. The 50 mm stroke falls within the bore 20 range - confirm exact travel against the datasheet. The HLQ ball-bearing guide suits anti-rust, dust-proof service where HLS cross-roller rigidity is not required. The BF retraction-side shock absorber is right when the return stroke carries more mass or speed than the extension; for both-end shock absorption use a B variant. Thread is PT; request G or T otherwise. Route load, moment and deflection sizing to us via the published tables and curves.
Applications
Vertical gripper lift
Ball-bearing guided 50 mm stroke lifts a gripper with the retraction-side shock absorber cushioning the downward return under load.
Small-parts ejector
Dust-proof ball rail pushes lightweight parts off a line; the retraction-side shock absorber softens the pull-back end of travel.
Stopper stage
Anti-rust guided table indexes a stopper into a workpiece path, the floating joint protecting the rod while the BF absorber eases retract.
FAQ
What does the BF adjuster mean on the HLQ20X50SBF?
BF means a shock absorber on the retraction side only. It cushions the return end of travel for heavier or faster pull-back loads; for both-end shock absorption use B, and for extension-side only use BS.
Is the magnet optional on this HLQ slide table?
No - the magnet is standard and always fitted, with magnetic-switch slots on the body for CMSH, DMSH or EMSH sensors. Operating pressure is 0.15-0.7 MPa with a 0.7 MPa maximum; keep speed at or below 500 mm/s.
