Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS6X30SAF
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS6X30SAF is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 6 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 21 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 HLS6X30SAF
The HLS6X30SAF is an AirTAC cross-roller slide-table cylinder with a 6 mm bore and 30 mm stroke. It integrates a cross-roller linear guide with a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder so the table travels straight with minimal deflection. The cross-roller guide gives the HLS family its highest precision and rigidity, and the dual rod doubles thrust compared to a single-rod design. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing. Compatible sensor switches are CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH, fitting the magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment from the 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
The 6 mm bore suits lighter-thrust applications; a larger bore gives more push if needed. The HLS cross-roller guide is the choice when precision, rigidity, and low deflection matter most. Stroke 30 mm is within the bore 6 range. This model carries an AF retraction-side adjustable rubber stopper for cushioning at the retract end. Thread is PT. We route load, moment, and deflection sizing to the published tables and curves on request.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Mounts a small gripper for precise part placement where cross-roller rigidity keeps position repeatable over many cycles.
Small-Parts Transfer
Shifts lightweight components between stations with guided straight-line travel and low deflection at 6 mm bore.
Assembly Stage
Positions a workpiece or tool at an assembly station where the floating joint protects the rod from side load.
FAQ
What does AF mean in HLS6X30SAF?
AF denotes a retraction-side adjustable rubber stopper. The cushioning bumper acts only at the retract end of the stroke. If you need cushioning at the extension end, choose AS instead; for both ends, choose A without a side letter.
What is the maximum operating pressure for this 6 mm bore model?
The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). Operating range for the 6 mm bore is 0.2-0.7 MPa (29-100 psi). Air should be filtered to 40 um and the speed kept at 50-500 mm/s using meter-out flow control.
