This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X150 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X150 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-SI32X150
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI32X150, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150
The AirTAC B06-SI32X150 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI32X150, mechanically identical to the base model. It delivers 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 32 mm bore, 12 mm rod, and G1/8 port.
AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X150, a true drop-in sharing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, stroke, and force. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Safe working load is ~241 N (60% of push), allowing ~20 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The B06-SAI32X150 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-SI32X150 Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa to align and press lithium-ion battery layers during automated cell stacking operations.
Module Transfer
Extends 150 mm to push battery modules onto assembly conveyors, utilizing the adjustable air cushions for smooth end-of-stroke deceleration.
Tab Handling
Drives lightweight pick-and-place grippers for battery tab positioning, matching the 20 kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 safety margin.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150 with the B06-SAI32X150
To replace the B06-SI32X150, order the SAI32X150. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 150 mm stroke, and G1/8 port. Because this is a no-S SKU, it cannot take a magnetic switch; if sensing is needed, order the SAI32X150S. For sizing, the 32 mm bore yields 402 N push at 0.5 MPa; if more force is needed, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N). A plain cylinder drifts on air loss—the cushion only decelerates—so for load holding use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants. At 150 mm stroke, rod bending is low, but ensure guide alignment to prevent side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI32X150
- ✓ 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-SI32X150 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SI32X150 (battery-manufacturing variant of SI32X150) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32X150. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, and G1/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
The 32 mm bore uses a G1/8 port. Force output is 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, with a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The SAI upgrade adds a two Y-shaped element piston seal for longer life.
