Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X100SAF
The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X100SAF 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. This is the symmetrical version. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque; the magnet is fitted as standard.

About the Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X100SAF
This slide-table cylinder combines an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide so the table travels straight with high precision. The HLSL symmetrical body suits balanced mounting, and the cross-roller guide minimizes deflection under load. At bore 16 with 100 mm stroke, the dual rod doubles thrust while a floating joint protects the rod from side torque.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. A magnet is standard for position sensing, and the body has magnetic-switch slots for CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH sensors. We confirm thrust, dimensions, and load-moment from the 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
Bore 16 offers moderate thrust for guided slide tasks; choose a bigger bore for more push. The HLSL cross-roller guide provides top precision and rigidity with a symmetrical body layout. Stroke 100 is within the bore 16 stroke range. The AF adjuster places an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only, cushioning the return end. Thread is PT. Load and moment sizing should be routed to us, as published tables and deflection curves apply.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Slide
Positions a vacuum gripper for component placement with cross-roller precision and a retraction-side stopper for controlled return travel.
Lane Transfer
Shifts small parts between parallel conveyors on a precise 100 mm guided stroke with balanced symmetrical mounting.
Stopper Stage
Acts as a guided stopper or positioning stop for workpieces arriving at an assembly station, retracting cleanly under the AF stopper.
FAQ
What does the AF adjuster code mean on HLSL16X100SAF?
The AF code specifies an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only, giving tunable cushioning at the return end of stroke while the extension end uses the standard bumper.
How fast can this cylinder operate and what limits speed?
Speed range is 50-500 mm/s. Use a meter-out flow control to keep speed within this range; exceeding 500 mm/s risks damage to the guide and seals.
