This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B04-SAID100X75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B04-SAID100X75 in place of this model. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.
Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75
The AirTAC Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 75mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B04-SAID100X75, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75
The AirTAC B04-SID100X75 is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, ensuring push and pull force are equal at 3681 N @0.5 MPa. The B04- prefix marks this as a construction-machinery dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID100X75 with a 100mm bore, 75mm stroke, and G1/2 port. This legacy model is discontinued and the direct drop-in replacement is the SAID100X75, which reuses the exact same ISO 15552 mounting interface and adds an upgraded piston seal utilizing two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, force is identical in both directions (5153 N @0.7 MPa, 6626 N @0.9 MPa). The dual-rod design prevents rotation and allows the back rod to drive a second tool or sensor cam. For sizing, the computed safe working load is roughly 2209 N (60% of the 3681 N @0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 188 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept position switches, and a plain cylinder will not hold a load on air loss—the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

Where the Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75 Is Used
Excavator Linkage Control
Drives dual opposing mechanical linkages on heavy equipment with equal push and pull force, leveraging the anti-rotation properties of the double-rod design to maintain precise alignment under harsh off-highway conditions.
Crane Boom Synchronization
Synchronizes two opposing boom sections from a single central cylinder body, using the rear rod extension to mirror the front rod motion while handling the 2209 N safe working load.
Heavy-Duty Material Transfer
Indexes large structural components down a construction machinery assembly line, utilizing the equal both-ways force to push and retract heavy jigs without stroke drift during normal cycling.
Replacing the Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75 with the B04-SAID100X75
To replace the discontinued B04-SID100X75, specify the SAID100X75 drop-in; it matches the 100mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/2 port, and FA/LB/TC mounting dimensions without machine modification. Size both ways by evaluating neighboring bores (80mm or 125mm) if your application requires more or less than the equal both-ways force of 3681 N @0.5 MPa. A double-rod cylinder is the right choice when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two mechanisms simultaneously from one piston. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot use magnetic switches; if sensing is required, select a -S model. For strokes of 300mm or longer, carefully manage side-load alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B04-SAID100X75
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac B04-SID Construction Machinery Special ISO Standard Cylinder B04-SID100X75 FAQ
Yes, the B04-SID100X75 (construction-machinery dedicated variant of SID100X75) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID100X75. It shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, 100mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/2 port, and mounting, but features an upgraded piston seal for longer life.
As a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 3681 N @0.5 MPa, 5153 N @0.7 MPa, and 6626 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/2. The safe working load is approximately 2209 N, allowing a vertical lift of about 188 kg with a 2:1 margin. It operates at 30-800 mm/s.
