This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID100X160, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. 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-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 160mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID100X160, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160
The AirTAC B06-SID100X160 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal both ways (3681 N @0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SID100X160, mechanically identical to the base model for cell and pack assembly. This SID model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID100X160. It shares the same G1/2 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36mm adjustable cushion, while the SAI family upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, this cylinder delivers 5153 N @0.7 MPa and 6626 N @0.9 MPa symmetrically. The equal-both-ways force prevents rod deflection during reversing strokes, and the back rod can drive a second tool. Note this SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot take a sensor; it also will not hold a load on air loss, as the cushion only decelerates near stroke end.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160 Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies the 5153 N @0.7 MPa equal both-ways force to align and compress battery cell stacks during electrode assembly, using the back rod to synchronize a clamping jaw.
Module Transfer
Uses the double-rod anti-rotation property to push battery modules smoothly between conveyor belts without guide binding, ensuring precise 160mm indexing.
Tab Welding Clamp
Drives two opposing welding electrodes simultaneously from a single ISO 15552 body, maintaining perfectly balanced pressure on battery tabs during the ultrasonic joining process.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160 with the B06-SAID100X160
To replace the discontinued B06-SID100X160, specify the SAID100X160 direct, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC) without bracket changes. Size both ways by confirming the 3681 N @0.5 MPa equal force is sufficient; if higher thrust is needed, step up to bore 125 (5734 N), or drop to bore 80 (2268 N) for lighter battery-handling fixtures. Choose a double-rod configuration when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. This non-magnetic SKU cannot accept a switch; add the -S suffix on the SAID if you need sensing. For strokes at or above 300mm, verify your side-load limits to prevent guide wear. Finally, never rely on the air cushion for load holding on valve centering—use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID100X160
- ✓ 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-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID100X160 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID100X160. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, so the SAID matches its 100mm bore, 160mm stroke, G1/2 port, and ISO 15552 mounting exactly, while adding an upgraded piston seal.
It features a G1/2 port and M20x1.5 rod thread. Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 3681 N @0.5 MPa, 5153 N @0.7 MPa, and 6626 N @0.9 MPa.
