Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS20X10SBF
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS20X10SBF is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 20 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a cross-roller guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 236 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.

About the Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS20X10SBF
The AirTAC HLS20X10SBF is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder combining an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide for straight, precise, rigid travel. The 20 mm bore and 10 mm stroke deliver moderate thrust over a short distance; the dual rod doubles thrust and a floating joint prevents side torque on the rod. The cross-roller guide minimizes deflection under off-center loads.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing using CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switches. We verify thrust, dimensions, allowable load, and moment 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
Select the 20 mm bore for moderate thrust in a compact guided slide; stepping up the bore increases push without changing the stroke. The HLS cross-roller guide excels where precision and rigidity are priorities; HLQ offers anti-rust ball-bearing guidance, HLH gives miniature roller-ball straightness, and HLF provides a low-profile body. The BF adjuster places a shock absorber on the retraction side for controlled backward-end deceleration. Ports use PT thread. Contact us to size allowable load and moment from the published tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Gripper Traverse Slide
Moves a gripper through a short 10 mm stroke with cross-roller precision; the retraction-side shock absorber cushions the return for gentle part handling.
Small-Parts Transfer Stop
Transfers light parts between conveyor stations with guided straight motion and a shock absorber on the retraction end for smooth deceleration.
Assembly Indexing Slide
Indexes a tool or workpiece on an assembly line where short-stroke repeatability and cross-roller rigidity keep positioning accurate cycle after cycle.
FAQ
What does the BF adjuster mean on HLS20X10SBF?
BF indicates a shock absorber fitted on the retraction side only, providing adjustable cushioning at the backward end of the stroke.
Is the magnet optional on the HLS slide table?
No. The magnet is standard on every HLS model in this line, ready for CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH position-sensing switches.
