This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X25S, 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 B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X25S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 25mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X25S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID40X25S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 528 N (@0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X25S, mechanically identical to it for cell and pack assembly lines. This SID model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID40X25S, retaining the same 40mm bore, 25mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting interface.
The double-rod design prevents rod rotation and allows the rear rod to carry a sensor cam, while the SAI upgrade features an improved two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure. Note that air cushions only decelerate; for load holding without live air, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.

The B06-SAID40X25S produces the same force from the same bore. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

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).
Equal both-ways force and anti-rotation stability for precise stacking of prismatic battery cells in module assembly.
Drives dual welding tools simultaneously from both rod ends, maintaining alignment during battery tab joining.
Uses the rear rod to carry a sensor cam while the front rod pushes battery packs on a conveyor line.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X25S, use the SAID40X25S. It is a direct swap matching the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 40mm bore, 25mm stroke, M12x1.25 rod thread, and G1/4 port. Because force is equal both ways, sizing is straightforward: if 528 N (@0.5 MPa) is insufficient, step up to the 50mm bore, or drop to 32mm if lower force is needed. A double-rod cylinder is right when you need anti-rotation, dual tool driving, or a back-side sensor cam. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For this 25mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for any stroke over 300mm, guide rails are recommended to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID40X25S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X25S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 40mm bore, 25mm stroke, G1/4 port, and equal both-ways force. The B06- prefix simply denotes it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base model.
Force is equal both ways due to the double-rod design: 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/4. It operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
