The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS8X10SBS is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 8 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 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 HLS8X10SBS is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder pairing an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide for straight, rigid, low-deflection travel. The floating joint prevents side torque on the rod, and the dual rod doubles thrust for this bore 8, stroke 10 mm unit. Cross-roller guidance gives the HLS family its highest precision and load capacity. The BS adjuster places a shock absorber on the extension side for controlled stopping at the rod-out end.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard sintered NdFeB magnet for position sensing using CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH sensor switches in the body slots. We verify thrust, dimensions, and allowable load/moment from the AirTAC 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 fits compact automation requiring moderate thrust in a small envelope; choose a larger bore when more push is needed - the exact thrust for this model appears in the spec table. The HLS cross-roller guide is selected for maximum precision and rigidity, distinct from the HLQ ball-bearing or HLF low-height alternatives. Stroke 10 mm is within the bore 8 published range.
The BS code means a shock absorber is fitted on the extension side for smooth deceleration at the rod-out end. Thread is PT as standard; specify G or NPT if required. Route allowable load, moment, and kinetic energy checks to us - AirTAC provides Wmax, Emax, moment tables, and deflection curves.
Moves a small parallel gripper across 10 mm of travel to pick parts from a feed tray with cross-roller precision and shock-absorber cushioning on extension.
Acts as a guided stopper that extends 10 mm to halt a light product on a conveyor, relying on dual-rod thrust and rigid cross-roller guidance.
Transfers small parts horizontally between two close stations with straight guided travel and shock-absorber control at the extension end.
BS indicates a shock absorber fitted on the extension side only; the retraction side uses the standard bumper. Shock absorbers give smoother end-of-stroke deceleration than rubber stoppers and are available on bore 8 and above (not bore 6).
AirTAC publishes allowable load (Wmax), kinetic energy (Emax), and moment values as tables, with deflection shown as curves. We confirm these from the datasheet on request so you can size the guide correctly for your application.
