This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI100X800 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI100X800 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.

The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X800 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 800mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI100X800, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SI100X800 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SI100X800. Delivering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa through a G1/2 port, it is replaced by the SAI100X800.
The SAI100X800 is a true drop-in replacement sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 800 mm stroke and force. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a sensor. Safe working load is ~2356 N (60% of 0.5 MPa push); vertical lift is ~200 kg with a 2:1 margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Drives the heavy 800 mm transfer of battery modules during pack assembly, utilizing the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shift heavy carriers.
Executes long-stroke indexing on cell stacking lines, moving prismatic cells into position with precise 30-800 mm/s speed control.
Pushes finished battery packs onto outbound pallets, where the 5497 N thrust at 0.7 MPa easily overcomes sliding friction on roller conveyors.
To replace the B06-SI100X800, order the SAI100X800. It matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, G1/2 port and M20x1.5 thread. Because this SKU has no -S suffix, it cannot accept a magnetic switch; the legacy SI used CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, but this bare rod cannot host them. If your battery line needs load holding on air loss, a plain cylinder drifts—use the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant, or an external pilot check valve. The 800 mm stroke demands external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. To size both ways: a neighbouring 80 mm bore gives 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 125 mm bore yields 6136 N.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SI100X800 (battery-manufacturing dedicated SI100X800) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI100X800. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the same 100 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, G1/2 port and mounting interface.
This double-acting cylinder has a G1/2 port. It delivers 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, 7068 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
