This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID32X160S, 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-SID32X160S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X160S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID32X160S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X160S
The AirTAC B06-SID32X160S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends on one piston, making push and pull force equal at 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID32X160S, mechanically identical in bore, port, and force. Because this SID model is discontinued, the direct replacement is the SAID32X160S, which reuses the same G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The double-rod design prevents rod rotation and allows the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for dual-side positioning, while the SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure. Note that the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end; for load holding without live air, an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X160S Is Used
Cell Stacking Alignment
Applies equal both-ways force to align and press battery cell stacks during module assembly, utilizing the anti-rotation property of the double rod to maintain parallel electrode contact.
Tab Handling Transfer
Drives a dual-tool pick-and-place mechanism on a battery pack line, using the rear rod extension to mount a sensor cam for precise timing during tab welding operations.
Pack Case Sealing
Pushes and pulls sealing fixtures with equal 345 N force on battery packaging conveyors, ensuring consistent clamping pressure on both extend and retract strokes.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X160S with the B06-SAID32X160S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID32X160S, specify the SAID32X160S, which matches the 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting footprint without changes. Size both directions by confirming the equal force requirement: if 345 N @0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the 40 mm bore (528 N) rather than assuming a larger single-rod push. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or a back-side sensor cam. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts directly. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For stroke lengths of 300 mm or greater, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID32X160S
- ✓ 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-SID32X160S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID32X160S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID32X160S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, so the SAID32X160S matches the 32 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface perfectly. The SAI family also adds upgraded piston seals and SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/8, the rod thread is M10x1.25, and it includes a 27 mm adjustable cushion at each end.
