This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X450, 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-SID40X450 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X450, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID40X450 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends on one piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal (528 N @0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X450, mechanically identical to it for cell and pack assembly tasks. This discontinued model features a 40 mm bore, 16 mm rod, M12x1.25 thread, 27 mm cushions, G1/4 port, and a 450 mm stroke. The direct replacement is the SAID40X450, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface and adds an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
This non-magnet SKU cannot take a magnetic switch. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads. At 450 mm stroke, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.

The B06-SAID40X450 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 drives precise cell stacking and tabbing in battery module assembly, preventing asymmetric drift.
The double-rod anti-rotation特性 stabilizes heavy battery packs during horizontal transfer on conveyor lines.
The extending back rod drives a secondary tool or sensor cam simultaneously from the opposite end for compact line layouts.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X450, select the SAID40X450 direct: it matches the 40 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, 528 N equal-both-ways force, G1/4 port, and FA/LB/TC mounting. When sizing both ways, verify force against neighbor bores (32 mm yields 345 N, 50 mm yields 825 N @0.5 MPa) to ensure the 528 N equal force is sufficient. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, equal push/pull, or a back rod to carry a sensor cam. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot take legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For the 450 mm stroke, add external guides to manage side-load and rod-bending risks.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID40X450 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X450, which shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, 40 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, equal both-ways force, G1/4 port, and mounting. The SAI family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI line lacked.
Force is equal both ways: 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. The bore is 40 mm with a G1/4 air port, M12x1.25 rod thread, and 27 mm adjustable cushions.
