This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X300 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X300 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-SI32X300 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAI32X300, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SI32X300 is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI32X300, mechanically identical to the base model with a 32 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X300.
The SAI32X300 is a true drop-in replacement sharing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, output force, and porting. It upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure. For battery line tasks, the safe working load is roughly 241 N (60% of the 402 N push force), yielding a 20 kg vertical lift capacity with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnet SKU cannot accept a sensor.

The B06-SAI32X300 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).
Applies the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa to align and press lithium-ion prismatic cells into modules, utilizing the 300 mm stroke for deep press travel.
Moves battery modules along the assembly line. The 20 kg vertical lift capacity handles packs safely, while the ISO 15552 interface ensures rigid mounting.
Feeds electrode heads for battery tab welding. The 30-800 mm/s speed range allows rapid cycling, though an external guide is needed for the 300 mm stroke.
To replace the B06-SI32X300, order the SAI32X300. Confirm the ISO 15552 mounting accessory (LB, FA, TC, etc.), the G1/8 port, and the M10x1.25 rod thread. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors; if sensing is needed, specify an SAI32X300S. For sizing, the 32 mm bore delivers 402 N push at 0.5 MPa; if less force is needed, drop to a 25 mm bore, or step up to 40 mm (628 N) for heavier packs. This cylinder does not hold load without live air; for vertical stack handling, use the SAIL lock variant, BSAI clamp-lock, or an external pilot check valve. At 300 mm stroke, use an external guide to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SI32X300 (the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SI32X300) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32X300. It shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, force, and G1/8 port, but features an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life.
The bore is 32 mm with a G1/8 air port. Force ratings are: 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 maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
