The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X100SB 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. This is the symmetrical version. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.
The HLSL20X100SB is a symmetrical cross-roller slide-table cylinder from AirTAC that integrates a double-acting air cylinder with a high-precision cross-roller linear guide. The 20 mm bore and 100 mm stroke deliver moderate thrust with outstanding rigidity. Dual rods double the push and pull force, and a floating joint shields the rods from side torque so the table travels straight with minimal deflection. The symmetrical body suits compact installations needing balanced access.
This genuine AirTAC part carries a standard magnet for position sensing. The CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switch families fit the magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions, allowable load, and moment specifications from the manufacturer datasheet or on-page 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.
The 20 mm bore is selected when moderate thrust is needed in a compact envelope. The cross-roller guide in the HLS/HLSL family gives the highest precision and load capacity in the HL line, making it ideal for applications where deflection must be minimal. The 100 mm stroke is within the standard range for this bore. The B adjuster equips both ends with shock absorbers for superior end-of-travel energy absorption, recommended for higher-speed or heavier-moving-mass applications.
Shock-absorber options are available on bore 20 and larger (not on bore 6). If you only need damping on one side, BS covers extension and BF covers retraction. For rubber-stopper cushioning choose A, AS, or AF. We route all load, moment, and kinetic-energy sizing to the published Wmax, Emax, and moment tables and deflection curves - contact us to verify your application parameters.
Shock absorbers on both ends absorb kinetic energy at high travel speeds, protecting the cross-roller guide during rapid pick-and-place cycles over the 100 mm stroke.
Symmetrical dual-rod design lifts a small payload with balanced force and low deflection, while shock absorbers cushion both ends of travel.
Cross-roller rigidity and dual-side shock absorption position a press head accurately at end-of-stroke for repeated light-press assembly operations.
The B code equips both the extension and retraction ends with shock absorbers, offering superior end-of-travel energy absorption compared to rubber stoppers. B-type adjusters are available on bore 20 and all larger bores, but are not offered on bore 6. For one-sided shock absorption, choose BS (extension) or BF (retraction).
Operating speed is 50-500 mm/s - use meter-out flow control to stay within this range. For bore 20 the operating pressure range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi), with a maximum working pressure of 0.7 MPa (100 psi). Proof pressure is 1.2 MPa (175 psi). Temperature range is -20 to 70 C.
