The AirTAC Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X30SAF is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 12 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 85 N of push at 0.5 MPa. This is the symmetrical version. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.
The HLQL12X30SAF is a genuine AirTAC symmetrical ball-bearing slide-table cylinder with a 12 mm bore and 30 mm stroke. It integrates an air cylinder with a precision linear ball guide so the moving table travels straight with low deflection. The dual-rod design doubles thrust compared with a single rod, and a floating joint spares the rods from side torque. An adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side lets you fine-tune the return position.
This double-acting unit is magnet-fitted as standard, accepting CMSH, DMSH or EMSH sensor switches in body slots. AirTAC rates the HLQL ball-bearing guide as anti-rust and dust-proof, with a double-rail layout on the 12 mm bore. We confirm thrust, dimensions, load and moment from the AirTAC datasheet or the 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.
Choose the 12 mm bore when you need moderate thrust in a compact, symmetrical package. A bigger bore gives more push; pick the smallest bore that meets your load. The HLQL ball-bearing guide suits dusty or mildly corrosive environments where cross-roller precision is not essential. Stroke must stay within the published range for bore 12. The AF adjuster places an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only, ideal when the return position needs tuning but the extension side uses the standard bumper. Thread is PT unless you specify G or NPT. Route allowable load, moment and deflection sizing to us - published as tables and curves.
Mounts a small gripper for precise part transfer, with the retraction-side stopper fine-tuning the home position for repeatable cycle starts.
Moves lightweight components across a conveyor or between fixtures with the symmetrical dual-rod layout keeping the payload centered.
Positions a workpiece at an assembly station, using the retraction-side rubber stopper to set an exact return-to-home registration point.
AF places an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only. The extension side keeps the standard bumper. This is useful when only the return position needs fine adjustment.
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). For the 12 mm bore the operating range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Speed is 50-500 mm/s with meter-out speed control.
