This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID32X500, 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-SID32X500 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 500mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID32X500, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID32X500 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends, ensuring force is equal both ways 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, mechanically identical to the base SID32X500. This discontinued model drops directly into existing ISO 15552 mounting interfaces (FA, LB, TC) with a G1/8 port and M10x1.25 rod thread.
The direct replacement is the SAID32X500, which adds an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. Because two rods share the piston, anti-rotation stability is inherent and the back rod can drive a second tool. Note this SKU lacks a -S magnet and cannot accept sensors.

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 electrode stacking in battery cell assembly, utilizing the inherent anti-rotation property of the double-rod design to maintain parallelism.
Drives dual-tool pick-and-place mechanisms on battery module lines, leveraging the back rod for cam actuation while the front rod handles part transfer.
Performs symmetrical clamping and sealing operations on battery pack housings, ensuring consistent pressure during the packaging process.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID32X500, use the SAID32X500; it preserves the 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and equal-both-ways force. Size both ways by confirming 345 N @0.5 MPa is sufficient, or step up to a 40 mm bore if more force is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or dual-tool actuation. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. For the 500 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. This non-magnetic SKU cannot take switches; if sensing is needed, select a -S model. For held loads, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant, as cushions only decelerate.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID32X500 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID32X500) is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID32X500, which shares the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and force ratings.
Force is equal both ways due to the double-rod design: 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/8.
