This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X175S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X175S 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-SI32X175S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X175S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI32X175S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X175S
The AirTAC B06-SI32X175S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI32X175S, mechanically identical to the base model. It delivers 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa through a 32 mm bore and 175 mm stroke.
AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X175S. This drop-in maintains the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread. The SAI features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. For battery line loads, expect a safe working load around 241 N (60% of [email protected]) or a 20 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

Where the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X175S Is Used
Cell Stacking
Precisely positions prismatic battery cells during automated stacking and alignment processes in pack assembly.
Module Handling
Transfers lightweight battery modules between conveyor stations for tab welding and busbar installation.
Tabbing & Sorting
Actuates pick-and-place probes for cell tabbing, quality sorting, and packaging operations on the line.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SI Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SI32X175S with the B06-SAI32X175S
To replace the B06-SI32X175S, order the SAI32X175S. It drops right into existing ISO 15552 fixtures with the same 32mm bore, 175mm stroke, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 thread. Confirm your mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC) and the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. If sizing up, a 40mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa; if downsizing, a 25mm bore is weaker. Note that air cushions only decelerate; they do not hold loads. For vertical battery-cell stacking that requires holding, use the SAIL lock or BSAI clamp-lock variant. At 175mm stroke, rod bending is minimal, but ensure guide alignment to prevent side-load wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAI32X175S
- ✓ 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-SI32X175S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SI32X175S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the AirTAC SAI32X175S. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32mm bore, 175mm stroke, and G1/8 port. The B06- prefix simply denotes it was dedicated to battery manufacturing; the SAI replacement is mechanically identical.
The 32mm bore operates at 30-800 mm/s with 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, and a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses an M10x1.25 rod thread and 27mm adjustable cushions.
