Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL16X20S
The AirTAC Airtac HLQL Dual Axis Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLQL16X20S is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 16 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 151 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 HLQL16X20S
The AirTAC HLQL16X20S is a symmetrical ball-bearing slide-table cylinder combining a double-acting air cylinder with a linear ball guide for straight, low-deflection table travel. With a 16 mm bore and 20 mm stroke, it delivers moderate thrust over a short guided distance; the dual-rod layout doubles the force and a floating joint shields the rods from side loads. The ball-bearing guide is anti-rust and dust-proof for demanding environments.
This is a genuine AirTAC part fitted with a standard magnet for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches are CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series, which seat in the body slots. We verify thrust, dimensions, load, and moment from the AirTAC 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
The 16 mm bore suits applications needing moderate thrust in a compact ball-bearing slide; a larger bore provides more push but with a larger body. The HLQL symmetrical version offers a balanced port arrangement for symmetrical mounting. The basic cushion (no adjuster code) uses the standard bumper at both stroke ends. Confirm that 20 mm stroke is within the 16 mm bore stroke table, and contact us for load and moment verification from the published datasheet curves.
Applications
Gripper Traverse
Shifts a small gripper across a 20 mm stroke with the ball-bearing rail maintaining precise position during pick-up.
Stopper Mechanism
Acts as a short-stroke stopper for lightweight workpieces, using the dual-rod thrust and dust-proof guide for reliable contact.
Small-Parts Transfer
Transfers components between close stations on the symmetrical body with anti-rust ball guide suited to factory air.
FAQ
Does the HLQL16X20S include a magnet?
Yes, the S in the model code indicates a standard magnet is fitted. It is not an option to decline. Compatible position sensors are CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series.
What pressure range applies to the 16 mm bore?
Operating pressure for the 16 mm bore is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa, and proof pressure is 1.2 MPa (175 psi).
