The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X30SBF 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 HLSL20X30SBF is a symmetrical, double-acting dual-rod slide table from AirTAC's HLSL series, pairing a 20 mm bore, 30 mm stroke cylinder with an integrated cross-roller linear guide. The cross-roller guide provides the precision and rigidity this family is known for - straight, low-deflection table travel under load - while the dual rods double the thrust at this bore and the integrated floating joint keeps side torque off the rod. The BF adjuster code specifies a shock absorber on the retraction side, so the return stroke decelerates smoothly while the extension end stays basic.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with the magnet fitted as standard for position detection; the body's magnetic-switch slots take CMSH, DMSH or EMSH sensor switches. We confirm the exact thrust, dimensions and allowable load and moment figures for the HLSL20X30SBF from the datasheet or the 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.
In the HLSL range, the 20 mm bore gives moderate to higher thrust relative to the 6 to 12 mm bores, which suits guided transfers carrying a real workpiece; the 30 mm stroke is one of the published bore-20 strokes. Guide-type choice: HLSL cross-roller for top precision and rigidity, HLQL ball-bearing where anti-rust and dust-proofing matter, HLH miniature roller-ball for best straightness, or HLF where height is limited. This BF code fits a shock absorber on the retraction side only - pick B for both ends or AS/AF for rubber stoppers if that suits the cycle better. Threads are PT as coded, with G and NPT options. Allowable load and moment data is published as tables and curves, so send us your sizing case and we will confirm the numbers.
A precise, rigid cross-roller table with a 20 mm bore gives an assembly stage steady, low-deflection travel, and the retraction-side shock absorber cushions each return to start position.
Dual rods double the thrust so the table carries a compact gripper across the 30 mm stroke, with the floating joint absorbing any side torque from the tooling.
The magnet works with CMSH, DMSH or EMSH switches to confirm table position, and the guided, symmetrical slide pushes small parts off a conveyor or fixture with repeatable straight-line motion.
BF indicates a shock absorber fitted on the retraction side only, decelerating the table as it returns to the start of stroke. Choose B instead if you need shock absorbers at both ends, or AF for a retraction-side adjustable rubber stopper. This option structure applies across HLSL and HLQL, except that B-type codes are not offered on bore 6.
Keep operating pressure within 0.15 to 0.7 MPa (22 to 100 psi) for the 20 mm bore - 0.7 MPa is the maximum working pressure - with air filtered to 40 um. Control speed by metering the exhaust and stay within 50 to 500 mm/s, and confirm allowable load and moment against the published datasheet tables and curves before fixing the payload.
