Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X50SAF
The AirTAC Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL12X50SAF 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 HLQL12X50SAF
The AirTAC HLQL12X50SAF is a symmetrical ball-bearing slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a linear guide for straight, precise table travel. The dual-rod layout doubles thrust compared to a single-rod cylinder, and the floating joint prevents side torque from reaching the rods. At bore 12 mm and 50 mm stroke, this model delivers moderate thrust for compact guided motion.
This genuine AirTAC part ships with a standard magnet for position detection. Sensor switches from the CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH families fit the body slots. We verify thrust, dimensions, and load-moment ratings against the datasheet or on-page specification 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 12 on the symmetrical HLQL series uses a double-rail ball-bearing guide suited to dust-proof, anti-rust environments with moderate guided load. Select a larger bore if more thrust is needed; choose stroke from the bore 12 stroke range. This model has an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only (adjuster code AF). Thread is PT. For allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy, contact us with the published tables and deflection curves for sizing.
Applications
Part Eject Stage
Retracts to pull a finished part from a fixture with consistent straight-line motion; the retract-side rubber stopper tunes the cushioning at the home position.
Gripper Traverse
Carries a gripper through a 50 mm stroke to pick parts from a conveyor, relying on ball-bearing guidance for repeatable positioning.
Sorting Diverter
Pushes small items onto a reject or secondary lane with moderate thrust and low deflection, suitable for dust-prone environments.
FAQ
What does the AF adjuster code mean on model HLQL12X50SAF?
Code AF means an adjustable rubber stopper is fitted on the retraction (home-return) side only, letting you fine-tune cushioning at the retract end while the extension end uses the standard bumper.
How fast can this cylinder run and how should flow controls be set?
Speed range is 50-500 mm/s. Use meter-out flow controls to keep speed within this range and avoid end-of-stroke impact, especially with a rubber stopper on one end.
