This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID100X160S, 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.

The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID100X160S 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-SAID100X160S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID100X160S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID100X160S, mechanically identical in every spec. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, yielding equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. This model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID100X160S, sharing the same G1/2 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36mm cushions.
Replacing it with the SAI family brings an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The double-rod design prevents rotation and lets the rear rod carry a sensor cam. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

The B06-SAID100X160S produces the same force from the same bore. 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).
Equal both-ways force drives precise electrode stacking and pressing in cell assembly, maintaining parallelism without rod-side force drop.
The anti-rotation double-rod design securely indexes battery modules along conveyor lines, using the rear rod to trigger reed sensors.
Dual-tool driving applies consistent clamping for busbar and tab welding operations, ensuring uniform contact pressure across the pack.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID100X160S, specify the SAID100X160S, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC) without bracket changes. Size both directions by confirming the 3681 N @0.5 MPa (5153 N @0.7) equal force is sufficient; if not, step up to bore 125 or down to 80. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation, dual-tool driving, or a back-rod sensor cam. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For this 160mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for strokes >=300mm ensure guide alignment to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID100X160S battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID100X160S. It shares the same 100mm bore, 160mm stroke, G1/2 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. The B06- prefix is an industry designation only, so the SAI replacement matches all physical specs.
Force is equal both ways: 3681 N @0.5 MPa, 5153 N @0.7 MPa, and 6626 N @0.9 MPa. Note that air cushions only decelerate; for held loads use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.
Send us the quantity and destination. We confirm price, stock and lead time on the B06-SAID100X160S replacement — usually within 7-8 hours.
