This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID100X900, 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-SID100X900 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 900mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID100X900, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID100X900 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID100X900. A rod exits both ends of the extruded aluminum barrel on a single piston, meaning both faces use the rod-side area to deliver equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. It features a 25 mm piston rod, an M20x1.5 rod-end thread, and a fixed G1/2 air port. Because this SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no magnet and cannot accept a magnetic piston switch.
With this model being end-of-life, the direct replacement is the SAID100X900, which maintains the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 900 mm stroke, and equal-both-ways force. The upgraded SAI family utilizes a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Note that air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; a plain cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for held loads.

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 stacking and pressing of battery cells during module assembly, utilizing the double-rod architecture to prevent rotation.
Drives dual-tool endpoints to push and pull battery packs simultaneously on a conveyor line, ensuring balanced 3681 N force during high-speed transfer operations.
Provides stable clamping for battery tab welding with equal push and pull force, while external guides accommodate the 900 mm stroke to prevent rod bending.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID100X900, select the SAID100X900, which offers a direct solution preserving the G1/2 port, M20x1.5 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting dimensions (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). A double-rod design is the right choice when you need equal force both ways, anti-rotation stability, or the ability to drive two tools simultaneously from one piston. When sizing both ways, verify your load against the 3681 N force at 0.5 MPa, and consider neighbor bores (80 mm or 125 mm) if your application requires a different force profile. Because this cylinder has a 900 mm stroke, it is critical to use external guides to prevent rod bending and manage side loads over that long extension. Finally, this non-magnetic SKU cannot support sensors; if sensing is required, move to an -S designated model.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID100X900 (battery-manufacturing dedicated line) is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID100X900. It shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, 100 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, G1/2 port, and equal-both-ways force. The SAI upgrade also features an improved two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for longer life.
Force is equal both ways (push and pull) at 3681 N @0.5 MPa, 5153 N @0.7 MPa, and 6626 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/2, the rod is 25 mm with an M20x1.5 thread, and speed is 30-800 mm/s.
