Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS8X30SAS
The AirTAC Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS8X30SAS 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.

About the Airtac HLS Precision Slide Cylinder HLS8X30SAS
The HLS8X30SAS is a double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder that integrates an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide. The cross-roller guide delivers high precision and rigidity with low deflection, suited for demanding positioning tasks. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque, and the dual rod doubles thrust for a compact bore 8 mm body at 30 mm stroke. The AS adjuster adds an adjustable rubber stopper on the extension side.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. A magnet is standard for position sensing, compatible with CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches that mount in the body slots. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and allowable load and 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.
How to choose
Bore 8 suits lighter-duty thrust needs; step up to a larger bore for more push without exceeding the guide's rated load. The HLS cross-roller guide is the choice when maximum precision and rigidity matter most - compare with HLQ ball-bearing for anti-rust dust-proof service, HLH for miniature roller-ball straightness, or HLF for a lower-height body. Stroke 30 mm sits within the bore 8 range. The AS adjuster gives an adjustable rubber stopper on the extension side. Thread is PT standard. We route allowable load, moment, and kinetic-energy sizing to the published AirTAC tables and curves.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Cross-roller precision guides the pickup head along a straight 30 mm stroke for reliable component placement on a small-parts assembly line.
Gripper Traverse
Dual-rod thrust moves a small gripper laterally between stations with minimal deflection and an extension-side rubber stopper for controlled endpoint positioning.
Small-Parts Transfer
Transfers lightweight workpieces across a conveyor gap with the bore 8 compact body, using the cross-roller guide for repeatable stop accuracy.
FAQ
What does the AS adjuster code mean on HLS8X30SAS?
AS indicates an adjustable rubber stopper fitted on the extension side only. The retraction side retains the basic bumper. Choose this when you need fine control of the forward end position but standard cushioning is sufficient on the return stroke.
What is the maximum operating pressure for this bore 8 cylinder?
Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). The operating range for bore 8 is 0.2-0.7 MPa (29-100 psi). Proof pressure is 1.2 MPa (175 psi). Never exceed 0.7 MPa in service.
