Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS12X30SA
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS12X30SA is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 12 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 85 N of push at 0.5 MPa. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.

About the Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS12X30SA
The AirTAC HLS12X30SA is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates a cross-roller linear guide with an air cylinder. The cross-roller guide delivers high precision, rigidity, and low deflection, while the dual rods provide moderate thrust for a 12 mm bore at a 30 mm stroke. A floating joint protects the rods from side torque, and adjustable rubber stoppers at both ends let you fine-tune end-of-stroke positioning.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing with CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switches. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and load-moment values from the AirTAC datasheet or on-page spec 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.
How to choose
Bore 12 suits applications needing moderate thrust; a larger bore gives more push. The HLS cross-roller guide is chosen when maximum precision, rigidity, and load capacity matter most - it outperforms the HLQ ball-bearing guide in deflection resistance, though HLQ offers better corrosion and dust resistance. Stroke 30 mm falls within the bore 12 range. The A adjustable rubber stopper lets you set end-position cushioning at both ends. PT thread is standard; specify G or NPT if needed. Contact us to confirm allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy from the published tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Cross-roller precision positions small parts during pick-and-place cycles with repeatable accuracy at 30 mm stroke.
Small-Parts Transfer
Transfers components between conveyor stations with straight guided travel and bumper cushioning at each end.
Assembly Stage Slide
Presents a workpiece to an assembly head with rigid cross-roller guidance that resists deflection under tooling load.
FAQ
What does the A adjuster code mean on HLS12X30SA?
A adds adjustable rubber stoppers at both the extension and retraction ends, letting you fine-tune end-of-stroke positioning. Shock-absorber options (B, BS, BF) are also available on bore 12 but not on bore 6.
What is the maximum operating pressure for the HLS12 cross-roller slide table?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). Bore 12 operates from 0.15 to 0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Keep speed within 50-500 mm/s using meter-out flow control.
