The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL20X40SAS 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 AirTAC HLSL20X40SAS is a symmetrical cross-roller slide table cylinder: a double-acting, dual-rod air cylinder with an integrated cross-roller guide, so the table moves in a straight line with high rigidity and low deflection. Bore 20 with a 40 mm stroke gives moderate-to-higher thrust for its class, the dual rods double that push, and the floating joint keeps side torque off the rods. The symmetrical body mounts three ways and the workpiece mounts two ways.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a magnet fitted as standard; magnetic-switch slots on the body take CMSH, DMSH and EMSH sensor switches. Cushioning is a bumper, and the AS code adds adjustable rubber stoppers on the extension side. The exact thrust, dimensions and load-moment values for this model come from the datasheet or the on-page spec table, and we confirm them 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 cross-roller family, bore 20 pushes harder than the 6 to 16 bores without going to bore 25, and 40 mm is inside this bore's published stroke table. Choose the symmetrical cross-roller HLSL for top precision and rigidity; pick HLQ ball-bearing where anti-rust, dust-proof service matters, HLH miniature roller-ball for the best straightness, or HLF for a low-height body. The AS code here means adjustable rubber stoppers on the extension side, with AF (retraction side), A (both ends) and B-type shock absorbers as alternatives. Port thread is PT, with G and T options. We size allowable load, moment and kinetic energy from the published tables and curves.
The cross-roller guide holds the table straight through millions of short moves, suiting this bore 20, 40 mm slide to transferring small parts between stations.
As a compact assembly stage, the low-deflection cross-roller table presents parts to screws, presses or dispensers with repeatable 40 mm positioning.
Tasks that deliver the workpiece on the outstroke benefit from the AS rubber stopper cushioning the extension end, keeping arrival smooth and repeatable.
The AS code on HLSL20X40SAS fits adjustable rubber stoppers on the extension side of the slide table. AF moves the stoppers to the retraction side, A covers both ends, and B-type shock absorbers (B, BS, BF) suit heavier moving masses where rubber is not enough. All HLSL bore 20 codes keep the magnet standard and PT, G or NPT threads.
Keep working pressure at or below 0.7 MPa - the bore 20 range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi) - use air filtered to 40 um, and set speed between 50 and 500 mm/s, typically meter-out. If your payload is near the guide's limits, we confirm allowable load, moment and kinetic energy from the published datasheet tables and curves before you order.
