The AirTAC Airtac HLSL Precision Slide Table Cylinder HLSL8X10SBF is a genuine HLS slide-table cylinder, 8 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 38 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 HLSL8X10SBF is a symmetrical cross-roller slide table cylinder: a double-acting dual-rod air cylinder with an integrated cross-roller guide that carries the table in a straight line with minimal deflection. The symmetrical HLSL body centres the guide on the cylinder axis for balanced motion, and the dual rods give more push than a single-rod cylinder of the same bore. The BF ending fits a shock absorber on the retraction side only, ideal for an 8 mm bore with a 10 mm stroke where the return stroke needs damping but the extension end is hard-stopped by the fixture.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The magnet comes fitted as standard, so CMSH, DMSH or EMSH sensor switches can be added in the body slots. We confirm exact thrust, dimensions and allowable load or moment for this model from the 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.
Bore 8 delivers light to moderate push; move to bore 12, 16, 20 or 25 for more force. HLSL offers the highest-precision cross-roller guide in a symmetrical body, HLQ/HLQL the anti-rust ball-bearing alternative, HLH the miniature roller-ball guide, and HLF a low-height body. Keep the stroke within the bore 8 table, and remember the S in the code is the standard magnet.
The BF ending means a shock absorber on the retraction side only; BS puts one on the extension side, B on both ends, and A-type codes use an adjustable rubber stopper instead. PT thread is standard, with G and NPT variants available. For load, moment and cushioning sizing we confirm values from the published tables and curves.
A hard fixture stop on the extension side plus a damped return makes this table a tidy stopper or eject unit for small parts on short travel.
The cross-roller guide keeps motion square across the 10 mm stroke, feeding small components between tray nests without lateral drift.
Use the dual-rod push for a short clamping or hold-down move, with the retraction-side shock absorber softening each release stroke.
The BF ending decodes as a shock absorber on the retraction side only, cushioning the return stroke while the extension end relies on the standard bumper or a fixture stop. Choose BS for the extension side, B for both ends, or A-type codes for adjustable rubber stoppers.
It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.2-0.7 MPa (29-100 psi) for bore 8, with 0.7 MPa as the maximum working pressure and 1.2 MPa proof pressure, from -20 to 70 C. Exact allowable load and moment figures for your mounting case are confirmed from the published datasheet tables and curves.
