This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID32X500S, 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-SID32X500S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X500S 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-SAID32X500S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X500S
The AirTAC B06-SID32X500S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 345 N @0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SID32X500S. This discontinued model drops in directly to the SAID32X500S, reusing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, and G1/8 port. The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, the equal-both-ways force prevents rod drift asymmetry in vertical battery stacking. The 12 mm rod and M10x1.25 thread carry a sensor cam on the back side for dual-position tracking. The 500 mm stroke requires external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X500S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies equal both ways force to press and align battery cells during module stacking, preventing asymmetric drift on the return stroke.
Tab Handling Transfer
Drives dual tooling from both rod ends to pick and place battery tabs simultaneously, saving space on compact assembly lines.
Pack Alignment Guides
Uses the anti-rotation property of the double rod to push battery packs straight into test fixtures without torsional deflection.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID32X500S with the B06-SAID32X500S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID32X500S, use the direct replacement SAID32X500S, which preserves the 500 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and 27 mm adjustable cushion. Size both ways by checking the equal force: 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 must drive two tools simultaneously. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts directly. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For the 500 mm stroke, add external guide rails to manage side-load and rod-bending risks.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID32X500S
- ✓ 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-SID32X500S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID32X500S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID32X500S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the base SID32X500S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G1/8 port.
It features a G1/8 port and delivers equal force both ways: 345 N @0.5 MPa, 483 N @0.7 MPa, and 621 N @0.9 MPa. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
