This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID100X500, 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-SID100X500 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 500mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID100X500, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID100X500 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID100X500. Because a rod exits both ends on a single piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal (3681 N @0.5 MPa). This model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID100X500, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/2 port, and 500 mm stroke. The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life.
Note that this SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot accept a sensor. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the 36 mm adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end. For held loads, use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.

The B06-SAID100X500 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).
Applies equal both-ways force for precise cell stacking and pressing in module assembly, preventing asymmetrical wear.
Drives dual-tool handlers on conveyor lines to transfer battery packs smoothly without rotational drift.
Provides stable clamping for battery tab welding with equal push/pull force, ensuring consistent electrode contact.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID100X500, install the direct replacement SAID100X500, matching the 100 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and M20x1.5 rod thread. Size both directions by the equal force: 3681 N @0.5 MPa, 5153 N @0.7 MPa, and 6626 N @0.9 MPa. If less force is needed, neighboring bores (80 mm or 63 mm) offer lower ratings while maintaining the ISO 15552 interface. A double-rod design is correct when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. For the 500 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. Because this SKU has no -S magnet, sensing is impossible; if needed, select an -S model.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID100X500 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID100X500. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID100X500. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 100 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, and G1/2 port, but adds an upgraded piston seal.
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. The air port is G1/2. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not hold the load on air loss.
