This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI100X700 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI100X700 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 B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 700mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI100X700, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700
The AirTAC B06-SI100X700 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI100X700, mechanically identical to the base model. It delivers 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa through a 100 mm bore, with a 700 mm stroke and G1/2 port.
AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI100X700 drop-in. The SAI retains identical ISO 15552 mounting dimensions, force, and port, but adds an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. A computed buyer insight: safe working load is ~2356 N (60% of 3927 N), yielding a ~200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5498 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 801 kgf | |
The B06-SAI100X700 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-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700 Is Used
Battery Module Stacking
Drives the 700 mm extraction and stacking motions in cell-to-module assembly lines, handling battery layers with a safe working load of 2356 N.
Pack Handling Transfer
Moves heavy battery packs along conveyor networks, utilizing the 100 mm bore's 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shift loaded pallets.
Pack Lowering Station
Controls vertical descent of battery modules at assembly stations, where the cylinder provides a 200 kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 safety margin.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700 with the B06-SAI100X700
To replace this discontinued cylinder, order the SAI100X700. It drops directly into existing fixtures via the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, matching the 100 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M20x1.5 rod thread. Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support position sensing; if sensing is required, specify an SAI100X700S. For sizing, the 80 mm neighbor provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or an external pilot check valve. At 700 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI100X700
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X700 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SI100X700 battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI100X700. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, output force, and G1/2 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly while adding an upgraded piston seal.
The 100 mm bore uses a G1/2 air port and an M20x1.5 rod thread. Force output is 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, with a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
