Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X30SAS
The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X30SAS 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 HLSL16X30SAS
The HLSL16X30SAS is a symmetrical cross-roller slide-table cylinder with a 16mm bore and 30mm stroke. It integrates an air cylinder with a precision cross-roller linear guide so the moving table travels straight with minimal deflection. The dual-rod design doubles the thrust compared to a single-rod cylinder, and a floating joint protects the rods from side torque. A 16mm bore delivers a solid balance of higher thrust and compact footprint for guided linear-motion tasks.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. A magnet is standard for position sensing, and compatible sensor switches include the CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH series, which seat in the magnetic-switch slots on the body. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions, and allowable load and moment values 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
A 16mm bore gives you higher thrust than the smaller 6mm or 8mm bores without the footprint of 20mm or 25mm options, making it a popular mid-range choice. The HLSL cross-roller guide provides the highest precision, rigidity, and load capacity among the HL sub-families, and the symmetrical body layout suits applications where clearance is needed on both sides. The AS adjuster on this model adds an adjustable rubber stopper on the extension side for fine end-position control. If your kinetic energy is higher, consider a shock-absorber option instead. Confirm allowable load and moment from the published datasheet tables and deflection curves before finalizing your sizing.
Applications
Pick-and-Place Head
Mounts a gripper for precise part placement where the cross-roller guide keeps deflection minimal during rapid traverse.
Small-Parts Transfer
Shuttles components between conveyor stations with straight, repeatable guided travel thanks to the symmetrical dual-rod construction.
Assembly Stage Stopper
Positions a workpiece at an assembly station using the extension-side rubber stopper for consistent, cushioned end-positioning.
FAQ
What does the AS adjuster code mean on this model?
AS indicates an adjustable rubber stopper on the extension side only. It lets you fine-tune the forward end position with soft cushioning rather than metal-on-metal contact. For shock absorption on both ends, choose the B option instead, which is available on bore 16 and larger.
What is the maximum operating pressure for the HLSL16X30SAS?
The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa (100 psi). For a 16mm bore, the operating range is 0.15-0.7 MPa (22-100 psi). Proof pressure is 1.2 MPa (175 psi). Never exceed 0.7 MPa during operation. We confirm allowable load and moment from the published datasheet on request.
