This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAUD63X1000S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAUD63X1000S in place of this model. The SAU replacement uses the same profile body, bore, stroke, force and SC-series mounting. It moves to the current CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor switches (the SU used CS1-B / DS1-B) and adds the SAUF valve-integrated option.
Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S is a double-acting profile-type standard cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 1000mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAUD63X1000S, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S
The B06-SUD63X1000S is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SUD63X1000S double-rod profile cylinder. The B06- prefix designates its industry application without altering physical specs. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, push and pull forces are equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. This model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAUD63X1000S, sharing the 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 3/8" port, and FA/LB mounting.
The rear rod provides anti-rotation stability and can carry a sensor cam for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches (the SAUD replacement uses current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors). At 0.5 MPa, the safe working load is roughly 841 N, allowing a vertical lift of about 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note that air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; an external rod lock is required to hold loads on air loss.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
The B06-SAUD63X1000S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S Is Used
Cell Stacking Assembly
Applies equal both-ways force for precise compression and alignment during battery cell stacking operations.
Module Transfer Handling
Uses the dual-rod anti-rotation特性 to push battery modules smoothly along conveyor lines without drift.
Pack Tabbing Press
Drives two opposing welding tools simultaneously with matched push and pull forces for pack tabbing.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S with the B06-SAUD63X1000S
To replace this discontinued cylinder, specify the SAUD63X1000S, which matches the 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 3/8" port, and FA/LB mounting. When sizing both ways, verify the equal push/pull force of 1402 N @0.5 MPa meets your requirement, or step to neighbouring bores. Choose a double-rod design when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. For the -S magnet option, change legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG on the SAUD. At 1000mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same bore / stroke → B06-SAUD63X1000S
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S): sensor family CS1-B → CMSG
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB)
- ✓ Need a built-in valve? → SAUF
Airtac B06-SUD Battery Dedicated Standard Cylinder B06-SUD63X1000S FAQ
Yes, it is discontinued. The B06- prefix marks this as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SUD63X1000S, mechanically identical to it. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAUD63X1000S, which matches the 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, 3/8" port, and FA/LB mounting.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The 63mm bore uses a 3/8" port. The safe working load at 0.5 MPa is approximately 841 N.
