The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X50SA 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 HLSL16X50SA is a symmetrical double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder integrating an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide. The cross-roller guide provides high precision and rigidity with low deflection, while the dual-rod design doubles the thrust. A floating joint ensures the rods take no side torque for smooth, straight travel at this 16 mm bore and 50 mm stroke.
This is a genuine AirTAC part with a standard magnet for position sensing, compatible with CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment values from the manufacturer datasheet or on-page spec table upon 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.
Choose the 16 mm bore when your application needs moderate to higher thrust without specifying exact force here. The cross-roller guide is ideal for high-rigidity tasks, and the symmetrical HLSL body suits center-mounted loads. This model includes adjustable rubber stoppers on both ends for fine stroke tuning, with PT threading. We can route load and moment sizing to the published tables and curves to confirm fit for your setup.
Positions small components accurately during multi-step assembly using the rigid cross-roller guide.
Moves lightweight items between conveyor lines with precise straight-line travel and bumper cushioning.
Slides a gripper horizontally to pick and place parts without deflecting under side loads.
The A code means adjustable rubber stoppers are installed on both ends of the cylinder, while AF specifies the stopper on the retraction side only. This model uses the A code for both ends.
The maximum working pressure is 0.7 MPa. The operating range for a 16 mm bore is 0.15 to 0.7 MPa. Meter-out speed control should keep travel between 50 and 500 mm/s.
