This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X700S, 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-SID40X700S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X700S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 700mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X700S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X700S
The AirTAC B06-SID40X700S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID40X700S. Because a rod exits both ends on a single piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal at 528 N @0.5 MPa. This model is discontinued and is fully replaced by the direct replacement SAID40X700S, which shares the exact G1/4 port, M12x1.25 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAID replacement features an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. For this 700 mm stroke, external guides are recommended to manage side-load and rod-bending. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; the SAI replacement uses current AirTAC switches.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X700S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies equal both ways force for precise pressing and separation during prismatic cell stacking and alignment in module assembly.
Tab Handling & Transfer
Drives dual tooling from a single cylinder to pick, shift, and place battery tabs simultaneously without rotational drift.
Pack Routing
Uses the back rod for a sensor cam to track position while routing battery packs along the assembly conveyor line.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID40X700S with the B06-SAID40X700S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X700S, specify the SAID40X700S, which provides a direct solution preserving the ISO 15552 interface, 40 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, and equal both ways force. When sizing, verify that the 528 N @0.5 MPa force is sufficient for both push and pull directions, or step up to a 50 mm bore if higher thrust is needed. A double-rod design is the right choice when you need anti-rotation stability, the ability to drive two tools from one cylinder, or when the back rod carries a sensor cam. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC styles. Because the stroke is 700 mm, external guides must be used to prevent rod-bending under side-loads. The -S magnet supports position sensing.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID40X700S
- ✓ 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-SID40X700S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID40X700S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID40X700S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the SID40X700S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 mounting, bore, stroke, and G1/4 port.
Force is equal both ways at 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. Speed is 30-800 mm/s. The air cushion only decelerates near stroke end; it does not hold loads on air loss. For held loads, use an external rod lock, pilot-operated check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
