This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI100X80 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI100X80 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-SI100X80
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X80 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 80mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI100X80, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X80
The AirTAC B06-SI100X80 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI100X80, mechanically identical to the base model. Delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, it is succeeded by the SAI100X80 drop-in replacement, featuring the same G1/2 port, 80 mm stroke, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and extended life. This SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot accept a sensor. For safe sizing, expect a working load around 2356 N (60% of 0.5 MPa push), or a 200 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The SAI family also adds BSAI clamp-lock and SAIL air-released lock variants absent in the legacy line.

Where the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X80 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to align and press layers in cell stacking operations, utilizing the 80 mm stroke for rapid, repeatable cycling.
Module Transfer
Handles the movement of battery modules along assembly lines, where the G1/2 port and ISO 15552 interface ensure stable mounting and high throughput.
Pack Handling
Drives clamping and positioning fixtures for heavy battery packs, safely operating within the 2356 N working load limit for reliable production.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X80 with the B06-SAI100X80
To replace the B06-SI100X80, order the SAI100X80. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, G1/2 port (PT/G/NPT), and mounting accessory. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot use CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; order a -S SAI if position sensing is needed. This 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; neighboring bores are 80 mm (2513 N) and 125 mm (6136 N). Note that a plain cylinder drifts without live air; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI100X80
- ✓ 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-SI100X80 FAQ
