Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X40SBF
The AirTAC Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X40SBF 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.

About the Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X40SBF
A slide-table cylinder integrates an air cylinder with a linear guide so the moving table travels straight. The HLQL12X40SBF uses a ball-bearing guide in a symmetrical double-rail layout with a 12mm bore and 40mm stroke. The dual rod doubles thrust while a floating joint spares the rod from side torque. Ball-bearing guides are anti-rust and dust-proof, suited to clean or washdown environments.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing. Compatible sensors include CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series switches, which mount in magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and load-moment values from the AirTAC 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
Choose the 12mm bore for moderate thrust in compact installations; a larger bore gives more push without changing the footprint class. The ball-bearing HLQL guide suits applications needing anti-rust and dust-proof performance where cross-roller precision is not required. The 40mm stroke must fall within the bore-12 stroke table. This model includes a shock absorber on the retraction side (BF adjuster) for softer end-of-stroke deceleration. Thread is PT; load and moment sizing is confirmed from published tables and deflection curves on request.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Guides a small vacuum gripper between two fixture positions with straight, repeatable travel in a clean assembly cell.
Small-Parts Transfer
Moves lightweight components transversely between adjacent conveyor lanes with dust-proof ball-bearing guidance.
Assembly Stage Stop
Advances a workpiece carrier into a station and retracts with shock-absorber deceleration on the return stroke.
FAQ
What does the BF adjuster code mean on this HLQL slide table?
BF indicates a shock absorber fitted on the retraction side only, providing softer deceleration at the rod-in end of stroke. The extension side uses the standard bumper. Shock absorber adjusters are available on bore 8 and above; bore 6 uses rubber stoppers only.
What is the maximum operating pressure for the HLQL12?
The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). Operating pressure for the 12mm bore is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Speed is controlled by meter-out flow regulation up to 500 mm/s. Load and moment capacity is confirmed from the AirTAC datasheet on request.
