This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X450S, 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-SID40X450S 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-SAID40X450S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID40X450S is an ISO 15552 double-acting double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID40X450S. A rod exits both ends on one piston, meaning both faces use the rod-side area and push/pull force is equal both ways (528 N @0.5 MPa). It features a 16 mm rod, M12x1.25 thread, and a G1/4 port. This SID model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the SAID40X450S, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and mounting.
The SAI replacement family uses an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant is required to hold loads on air loss.

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).
Applies equal both-ways force for precise electrode stacking in battery cell assembly, ensuring consistent compression without drift.
Drives dual-tool transfer mechanisms on conveyor lines for battery module positioning, utilizing the back rod for a sensor cam.
Delivers 528 N @0.5 MPa equal force for tab welding and pressing operations in battery pack manufacturing, preventing side-load rotation.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X450S, specify the SAID40X450S, which provides a direct solution preserving the G1/4 port, M12x1.25 rod thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC). Size both directions by confirming the 528 N @0.5 MPa equal force fits your load, or step to neighbouring bores (32 mm or 50 mm) if margins require. A double-rod design is right when you need equal push/pull force, anti-rotation stability, or a back rod to carry a sensor cam. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. With a 450 mm stroke, external guides are recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID40X450S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X450S. The B06- prefix only marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the base SID40X450S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, force, G1/4 port, and mounting.
Force is equal both ways because a rod exits both ends: 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, a 16 mm rod, and an M12x1.25 rod thread. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
