The AirTAC HLQ8X20S AirTAC Ball-Bearing Slide Table Cylinder Bore 8 is a genuine HLQ slide-table cylinder, 8 mm bore: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder integrated with a ball-bearing guide so the table travels straight with high rigidity and low deflection. It delivers about 38 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.
The AirTAC HLQ8X20S is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a ball-bearing linear guide, so the moving table travels straight with minimal deflection. The bore 8 single-rail ball-bearing guide is anti-rust and dust-proof, suited to clean or mildly corrosive environments where precise guided motion matters. The dual rod doubles thrust compared to a single-rod design, and a floating joint prevents side torque from loading the rod.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet fitted for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches include the CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series, which mount in the magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm the exact thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment values for your application from the datasheet or on-page specification 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.
Bore 8 gives light thrust suitable for small-part handling; choose a larger bore if you need more push since thrust rises with bore area. The HLQ ball-bearing guide is the anti-rust, dust-proof choice when cross-roller rigidity is not required. Stroke 20 mm falls within the standard range for this bore. This model has the basic cushion configuration with no external adjuster; if you need adjustable rubber stoppers or shock absorbers, select an A or B adjuster variant. Thread is PT.
For load, moment, and kinetic-energy sizing, route the numbers to us so we can confirm against the published tables and deflection curves for the HLQ sub-family.
Precise guided travel at bore 8 suits lightweight pick-and-place heads moving parts between fixtures.
Push or divert small components from a belt line with low-deflection ball-bearing guidance.
Mount a gripper to the slide table for short-stroke traverse in compact assembly cells.
Yes. The S in the code means a magnet is fitted as standard; it is not an option to decline. Use AirTAC CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH series sensor switches in the body slots.
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa. The operating range for bore 8 is 0.2-0.7 MPa (29-100 psi). Do not exceed 0.7 MPa under any condition.
