The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X100SBF 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.
The AirTAC HLSL16X100SBF is a symmetrical cross-roller slide-table cylinder, 16 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, fitted with a shock absorber on the retraction side. The HLSL sub-family pairs a dual-rod air cylinder with a high-precision cross-roller guide so the table moves in a straight line with very low deflection. The symmetrical layout gives you flexible mounting orientation. A floating joint protects the rods from side load, and the dual rod configuration delivers higher thrust than a single-rod cylinder of the same size.
This is a genuine AirTAC component with a standard sintered magnet fitted for position detection via CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH sensor switches. The retraction-side shock absorber softens the return stroke. We verify thrust, dimensions, and load/moment data from the AirTAC 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.
The 16 mm bore suits moderate-thrust guided motion; step up to a 20 or 25 mm bore if your application needs more force. Choose HLSL when cross-roller precision and rigidity are the priority. This SBF variant places the shock absorber on the retraction side only, useful when the return stroke carries a load or requires gentler stopping while the extension end uses a standard bumper. Thread is PT. Allowable load, moment, and deflection values are published as tables and curves - contact us to confirm sizing for your application.
Move a gripper assembly laterally with cross-roller precision, absorbing impact on the retraction stroke where the return load is heaviest.
Use the guided table as a retractable stop with the shock absorber cushioning the loaded return, keeping position repeatable.
Index tooling precisely along the 100 mm stroke with cross-roller straightness and retraction-side deceleration for controlled returns.
BF indicates a shock absorber installed on the retraction side only. The extension side uses the standard bumper. This is useful when the return stroke is loaded or requires softer cushioning. AS, AF, BS, and B are other available adjuster options for HLSL cylinders.
No. Maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). For the 16 mm bore, the operating range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Exceeding 0.7 MPa risks damage. Use filtered air (40 um) and keep speed between 50 and 500 mm/s with meter-out flow control.
