This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X250, 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-SID40X250
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X250 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 250mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X250, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X250
The AirTAC B06-SID40X250 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID40X250. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal (528 N at 0.5 MPa). This model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID40X250, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/4 port, and M12x1.25 rod thread.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot take a sensor; it also will not hold a load on air loss, as the 27 mm adjustable cushion only decelerates.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X250 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal both-ways force drives stacking platens in cell assembly, ensuring precise layer alignment without rotational drift.
Module Handling
The twin-rod anti-rotation characteristic keeps battery modules oriented during transfer between welding stations.
Tab Welding Clamp
Provides stable, equal clamping pressure on battery tabs from both ends, maintaining position during the weld cycle.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X250 with the B06-SAID40X250
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X250, use the SAID40X250 directly—it matches the 40 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and equal both-ways force. When sizing both ways, verify your load against the 528 N (at 0.5 MPa) limit, or step up to a 50 mm bore if higher force is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. Mounting options include FA, LB, and TC brackets. Since this SKU lacks the -S magnet, add external sensors if needed. For this 250 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for strokes >=300 mm ensure guide alignment to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID40X250
- ✓ 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-SID40X250 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID40X250 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X250. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X250. The SAID replacement shares the exact same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G1/4 port.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 528 N at 0.5 MPa, 739 N at 0.7 MPa, and 950 N at 0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/4. It does not hold load on air loss; the 27 mm cushion only decelerates. For held loads, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.
