Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X40SBS
The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X40SBS 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 HLSL16X40SBS
The HLSL16X40SBS is a symmetrical cross-roller slide-table cylinder with a 16 mm bore and 40 mm stroke. The integrated cross-roller linear guide gives the moving table high precision and rigidity with low deflection. Dual rods double the thrust, and a floating joint prevents side torque from damaging the rods. Its symmetrical body suits balanced, space-constrained layouts.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for use with CMSH, DMSH, or EMSH sensor switches. We verify thrust, dimensions, and load-moment from the AirTAC datasheet or the 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
The 16 mm bore provides moderate thrust in a compact body; step up a bore size for more push. The HLSL cross-roller guide delivers the highest precision and rigidity of the HL sub-families. Pick a stroke from the bore's datasheet table. This model carries a shock absorber on the extension side (BS) for smooth end-of-stroke damping at extend. Port thread is PT. We confirm allowable load and moment from the published tables and curves.
Applications
Gripper Traverse Stage
Traverses a gripper between two stations with straight, repeatable motion guided by the cross-roller bearing.
Small-Parts Insertion
Inserts small parts into a fixture with the dual-rod thrust and cross-roller precision holding alignment.
Component Pick-Off
Picks components from a feeder lane with accurate positioning and low deflection at full extension.
FAQ
What does BS mean in the model code?
BS means a shock absorber on the extension side only, providing controlled deceleration at the extend end. The retraction side uses a standard bumper stop.
How fast can this cylinder travel?
Recommended speed is 50 to 500 mm/s using meter-out flow control. Keep operating pressure within 0.15 to 0.7 MPa (22 to 100 psi) for bore 16.
