This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X100S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X100S 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-SI32X100S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI32X100S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SI32X100S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SI32X100S. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X100S, a true drop-in sharing the same 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. For your sizing, the safe working load is roughly 241 N (about 60% of the 402 N push force), translating to a 20 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The SAI family also introduces lock and valve variants the SI lacked, and the original -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.

The B06-SAI32X100S 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.

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).
Ideal for stacking prismatic battery cells in module assembly, utilizing the 100 mm stroke and 241 N safe working load for precise, gentle positioning.
Drives small transfer mechanisms for battery tab sorting and alignment on high-speed production lines within the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Indexes empty or filled battery pack trays at packaging stations, dropping directly into existing ISO 15552 fixture mounts via the SAI replacement.
To replace the B06-SI32X100S, order the SAI32X100S. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, G1/8 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and the -S magnet for position sensing. When sizing, this bore provides 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa; if more force is needed, the neighboring 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa. Note that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates. For battery line load-holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. The SAIF variant integrates a 4M valve for compact cell-assembly spaces.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SI32X100S (battery-manufacturing dedicated SI32X100S) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32X100S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, output force, and G1/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder features a G1/8 air port and M10x1.25 rod thread. It delivers 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, 724 N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
