Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X20SB
The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X20SB 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.

About the Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X20SB
The HLSL20X20SB is an AirTAC HLSL symmetrical slide-table cylinder with a 20 mm bore and 20 mm stroke, built around an integrated cross-roller guide. As a double-acting dual-rod unit, the twin rods double the pushing force while the cross-roller guide keeps the table travelling straight with low deflection under load, and the symmetrical body lets you mount workpieces from either side. The built-in floating joint spares the rods from side torque, so the table stays precise even when the driven tooling is not perfectly aligned. The B adjuster code means shock absorbers are fitted at both ends of the stroke to decelerate the table smoothly.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a position-detecting magnet fitted as standard, and magnetic-switch slots on the body accept CMSH, DMSH and EMSH sensor switches. The on-page specification table shows the verified thrust for this bore, and we confirm exact dimensions, load and moment ratings from the datasheet 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
Within the HLS/HLSL line, a 20 mm bore gives you moderate to higher thrust than smaller bores in the series, since push force grows with bore area. Choose the symmetrical HLSL body when you need workpiece mounting on both sides of the table, and cross-roller guidance when precision and rigidity matter most. The 20 mm stroke must sit within the bore's published stroke table, which we can check for you.
This variant carries the B adjuster: shock absorbers on both ends of the stroke. If you need damping on only one side, the BS (extension side) or BF (retraction side) variants are available; A-type rubber stoppers are the softer alternative. Ports are 1/8" with PT threading as standard, and G or T threading can be ordered instead.
Applications
Pick-and-place handling
The guided dual-rod table moves small workpieces between stations with the cross-roller guide holding lateral position, while the floating joint absorbs misalignment from the gripper mounting.
Gripper traverse
Traverse a compact gripper across a 20 mm stroke on an assembly cell; the shock absorbers at both ends settle the table cleanly at each end of travel.
Small-parts assembly stage
Position components for pressing or insertion where straight, low-deflection travel is required, with the symmetrical table accepting tooling on either side.
FAQ
What does the B at the end of HLSL20X20SB mean?
The trailing letter is the adjuster code. B means shock absorbers are fitted at both ends of the stroke. On the HLSL series you can also order BS (shock absorber on the extension side only) or BF (retraction side only), or A-type adjustable rubber stoppers. All HLSL models come with the magnet fitted as standard, so no option is needed for sensor detection.
What pressure and speed limits apply to this cylinder?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa, with an operating range of 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) for the 20 mm bore and a proof pressure of 1.2 MPa. Run the air metered-out within the 50-500 mm/s speed range using clean, filtered air. Allowable load and moment values are confirmed from the published datasheet tables, not estimated.
