Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS16X100SBS
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS16X100SBS is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 16 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 151 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 HLS16X100SBS
The AirTAC HLS16X100SBS is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates a cross-roller linear guide with an air cylinder, so the moving table travels straight with high precision and rigidity. The 16 mm bore and 100 mm stroke suit longer-travel positioning tasks, and the dual rod doubles thrust without doubling footprint. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque, extending service life. The BS adjuster adds a shock absorber on the extension side for smoother end-of-stroke deceleration on longer strokes.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing, compatible with CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches fitted in the body slots. We confirm thrust, dimensions, load-moment, and deflection data from the AirTAC datasheet or 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.
How to choose
Choose the 16 mm bore when you need moderate thrust in a compact slide; a bigger bore gives more push and a smaller bore saves space. The HLS cross-roller guide offers the highest precision, rigidity, and load capacity among the HL sub-families, ideal where deflection must be minimal. The 100 mm stroke stays within the bore 16 stroke table; verify your travel against the datasheet. The BS adjuster places a shock absorber at the extension end for controlled stopping, and the PT thread suits standard pneumatic fittings. Route allowable load and moment sizing to us; AirTAC publishes these as tables and deflection curves.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Cross-roller precision and 100 mm stroke position small electronic parts with minimal deflection during pick-up and placement.
Parts Transfer Gate
Shock-absorber-controlled extension stop moves parts smoothly between conveyor lanes over the longer 100 mm travel.
Assembly Stage Slide
Dual-rod thrust and cross-roller rigidity hold an assembly fixture steady while a press or driver operates on the workpiece.
FAQ
What does the BS adjuster code mean on this HLS cylinder?
BS indicates a shock absorber fitted on the extension side of the cylinder. This provides controlled deceleration at the forward end of the 100 mm stroke, reducing impact. The retraction side uses a standard bumper.
What is the maximum operating pressure for the HLS16 bore?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). The operating range for bore 16 is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Meter-out speed control should keep travel between 50 and 500 mm/s.
