This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X300S, 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-SID40X300S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 300mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X300S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID40X300S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, yielding equal force in both directions (528 N at 0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X300S, mechanically identical to it. This discontinued model drops in directly with the SAID40X300S, which reuses the same G1/4 port, M12x1.25 rod thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI replacement features an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. A second rod allows driving two tools or carrying a sensor cam on the back side. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; for load holding without live air, use an external rod lock.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SI datasheet (now discontinued). The B06-SAID40X300S carries the same ISO 15552 ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

The B06-SAID40X300S 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 precisely presses and separates battery cell layers during automated stacking and assembly operations.
The rear rod drives a secondary mechanism or sensor cam, synchronizing tab handling without adding a separate actuator.
Anti-rotation stability from the double-rod design ensures accurate positioning when indexing battery packs along conveyors.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X300S, use the direct replacement SAID40X300S, matching the 40mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. The double-rod design is right when you need equal both-ways force, anti-rotation stability, or a back rod for a sensor cam. You can reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. At 300mm stroke, add external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. If you need more force, step up to the 50mm bore; if less, drop to 32mm.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID40X300S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X300S. The B06- prefix simply designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, so the SAID replacement is mechanically identical, sharing the same ISO 15552 interface, 40mm bore, 300mm 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, the rod thread is M12x1.25, and it has a 27mm adjustable air cushion at each end.
