Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X50SAF
The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL16X50SAF 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 HLSL16X50SAF
The HLSL16X50SAF is a symmetrical double-acting dual-rod slide-table cylinder integrating an air cylinder with a cross-roller linear guide. The cross-roller guide delivers high precision and rigidity with low deflection, and the dual rod design provides higher thrust for a 16 mm bore. A floating joint spares the rod from side torque, ensuring smooth straight-line travel over the 50 mm stroke.
This is a genuine AirTAC part equipped with a standard magnet for position sensing, compatible with CMSH, DMSH, and EMSH sensor switches mounted in the body slots. We verify thrust, dimensions, and allowable load-moment specifications 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
Select the 16 mm bore for moderate to higher thrust requirements; exact force is listed in the spec table. The cross-roller guide provides maximum rigidity, and the symmetrical body design is excellent for balanced loads. This variant features an adjustable rubber stopper on the retraction side only, with standard PT threading. Allowable load and moment values are published as tables and curves, which we can help review for your application.
Applications
Assembly Stage
Positions small components accurately during multi-step assembly using the rigid cross-roller guide.
Small-Parts Transfer
Moves lightweight items between conveyor lines with precise straight-line travel and bumper cushioning.
Gripper Traverse
Slides a gripper horizontally to pick and place parts without deflecting under side loads.
FAQ
What does the AF adjuster code mean on this slide table cylinder?
The AF code indicates an adjustable rubber stopper installed on the retraction side of the cylinder only, allowing fine-tuning of the stroke end position.
How are load and moment limits confirmed for this model?
We confirm allowable load, kinetic energy, and moment values from the published Wmax, Emax, and moment tables, as well as the deflection curves in the datasheet.
