This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI100X800S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI100X800S 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-SI100X800S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X800S 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-SAI100X800S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X800S
The AirTAC B06-SI100X800S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder delivering 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI100X800S, mechanically identical to the standard profile barrel unit with a G1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread. AirTAC has discontinued the SI line; the direct drop-in replacement is the SAI100X800S.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. A computed buyer insight: safe working load is roughly 2356 N (60% of [email protected]), yielding a 200 kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 margin. The SAI family also adds SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock variants the SI lacked. This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

Where the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X800S Is Used
Battery Module Handling
Moves heavy battery modules during pack assembly, utilizing the 3927 N push force to shift 200 kg loads vertically with a safe 2:1 margin.
Cell Stacking Transfer
Drives long 800mm stroke transfers on cell stacking lines, requiring external guide rails to prevent rod bending during the extended travel.
Tabbing & Welding Press
Applies consistent clamping pressure for tab welding operations, relying on the adjustable 36mm air cushions to decelerate the 25mm rod smoothly.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI100X800S with the B06-SAI100X800S
To replace the B06-SI100X800S, order the SAI100X800S. It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, retaining the exact 100mm bore, 800mm stroke, 3927 N output, G1/2 port, and mounting accessories. Confirm your port thread (PT/G/NPT) and mounting type (LB, FA, TC, etc.). The -S suffix means a magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI uses current AirTAC switches. For sizing, a 100mm bore yields 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa; dropping to an 80mm bore gives 2513 N. Note: a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For load holding, use the SAIL or BSAI lock variant, or an external pilot check valve. At 800mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI100X800S
- ✓ 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-SI100X800S FAQ
Yes, the SI series is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI100X800S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 100mm bore, 800mm stroke, force, G1/2 port, and -S magnet. The B06- prefix simply denotes the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, and the SAI fits the exact same fixtures.
This double-acting cylinder has a G1/2 port. Theoretical forces are: push 3927 N and pull 3681 N at 0.5 MPa; push 5497 N at 0.7 MPa; push 7068 N at 0.9 MPa; max force 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s. Note the cushion only decelerates; it does not hold load without air.
