This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X150S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X150S 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-SI32X150S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150S 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-SAI32X150S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150S
The AirTAC B06-SI32X150S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI32X150S, mechanically identical to the base model with a 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X150S, a true drop-in sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force, and porting.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. For battery line integration, the safe working load is roughly 241 N (about 60% of the 402 N push force), yielding a vertical lift capacity of approximately 20 kg with a 2:1 margin. The original SI-S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, whereas the SAI family utilizes current AirTAC switches and introduces SAIL, SAIF, and BSAI lock or valve variants absent from the SI line.

Where the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150S Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa to align and press battery cell layers during automated module stacking operations.
Tab Handling & Sorting
Drives lightweight 150 mm stroke gating and diverting mechanisms on conveyor lines for battery tab sorting and routing.
Pack Fixture Clamping
Clamps battery pack housings within machining fixtures using the ISO 15552 mounting interface for precision assembly.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X150S with the B06-SAI32X150S
To replace the B06-SI32X150S, order the SAI32X150S drop-in equivalent, confirming the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G1/8 port (PT/G/NPT thread options), and the -S magnet for switch sensing. When sizing both ways, neighboring bores offer different force classes: a 40 mm bore provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, while smaller options yield less. For this 150 mm stroke, ensure adequate guide support to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain ISO 15552 cylinder does not hold load on air loss; the adjustable 27 mm air cushions only decelerate near stroke end. For battery stacking or handling that requires mid-stroke holding, specify the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant, or use an external pilot check valve.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI32X150S
- ✓ 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-SI32X150S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SI32X150S (the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SI32X150S) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32X150S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, output force, and G1/8 port, fitting existing fixtures perfectly.
