Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS16X30SBF

The HLS16X30SBF is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide, so the moving table travels straight with high precision and rigidity. The dual rod doubles thrust for a compact 16 mm bore, and a floating joint spares the rod from side torque so the guide deflection stays minimal. At 30 mm stroke this unit fits tight transfer and positioning stations, and the BF adjuster adds shock absorbers on the retraction side to cushion end-of-stroke impacts.

This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing using CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH switch sensors in the body slots. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and allowable load/moment from the datasheet or on-page spec table on request.

Choose the 16 mm bore when you need more push than the smallest bores provide but still want a compact footprint; bigger bores give higher thrust, which the spec table quantifies. The HLS cross-roller guide is the choice for highest precision and rigidity among the HL sub-families; for anti-rust dust-proof duty consider HLQ, and for precision-assembly straightness or low-height bodies look at HLH or HLF. Pick the stroke from the bore's table; 30 mm is a common pick-and-place length. The BF code means shock absorbers on the retraction side only, which suits applications where retraction impact dominates; if both ends need cushioning choose B. Thread is PT standard; specify G or T for G or NPT ports. Route load and moment sizing to us so we can confirm from the published tables and deflection curves.
