The AirTAC HLQ8 is a double-acting twin-rod precision slide table (recirculating-ball guide, standard type) with an 8 mm bore. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 50.3 N and pulls 37.7 N; at 0.7 MPa, 70.4 N push and 52.8 N pull. Force depends on bore and pressure only, so every stroke on this page gives the same output.
Twin precision linear guides with recirculating balls give high rigidity and smooth travel; twin pistons double the output and a floating joint keeps load moments off the piston rods. All HLQ8 versions use M5×0.8 air ports and run on filtered air at 0.2 to 0.7 MPa (proof 1.2 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 50 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 6 stock order codes with strokes from 20 to 40 mm; the catalog maximum stroke is 75 mm.

Twin pistons: push = 2 × pressure × bore area; pull subtracts both rod areas. Usable force is lower because of friction and back-pressure.

Twin pistons give about 50.3 N at 0.5 MPa with a rigid, guided table.
Adjusting bolts or shock absorbers set and cushion each end position.
Fixtures mount directly on the slide table.
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Then choose the external stopper. Adjusting bolts (A, AS, AF) set the end position precisely; shock absorbers (B, BS, BF) take the impact of heavier or faster loads. The letter after A or B picks the end: S = extend end, F = retract end, none = both ends.
Finally pick the version: every code carries a magnet for position sensors.
No. Every HLQ8 gives about 50.3 N push and 37.7 N pull at 0.5 MPa, whatever the stroke.
M5×0.8 ports.
0.2 to 0.7 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.2 MPa), 50 to 500 mm/s and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
