This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAI32X300S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAI32X300S 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-SI32X300S 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-SAI32X300S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SI32X300S is a discontinued double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SI32X300S, mechanically identical with a 32mm bore, 300mm stroke, and 402N push force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this EOL unit with the SAI32X300S. This drop-in successor shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread, fitting existing fixtures seamlessly.
The SAI upgrade features a modernized piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and extended life. A computed buyer insight: the safe working load is roughly 241N (60% of the 402N push force), allowing a 20kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The original -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors, while the SAI family introduces SAIL lock, SAIF valve, and BSAI clamp-lock variants absent in the SI line.

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 consistent 402N pressure at 0.5 MPa for stacking electrode sheets in prismatic cell assembly, utilizing the 300mm stroke to clear the stacking fixture.
Extends 300mm to push battery modules onto conveyor lines, relying on the adjustable air cushions to decelerate the payload smoothly at end of stroke.
Positions and holds battery tabs during ultrasonic welding operations, where the G1/8 port and 30-800 mm/s speed provide precise actuation control.
To replace the B06-SI32X300S, order the SAI32X300S. Verify the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/8 port, and -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, neighboring bores offer different capacities: a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5MPa, while dropping to a 25mm bore reduces force. At 0.5MPa this 32mm bore provides 402N push and 345N pull. Because the stroke is 300mm, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load wear. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; for load holding, use an external pilot check valve or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SI32X300S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAI32X300S. It features the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32mm bore, 300mm stroke, output force, G1/8 port, and mounting accessories. The B06- prefix simply designated it for battery manufacturing, and the SAI replacement is mechanically identical.
This 32mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a G1/8 air port. The thrust ratings are: 402N push and 345N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563N push at 0.7 MPa, 724N push at 0.9 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates at 30-800 mm/s with a 27mm adjustable cushion at both ends.
