This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID40X800S, 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-SID40X800S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 800mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID40X800S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID40X800S is a discontinued double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X800S, mechanically identical in every spec. 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). The direct replacement is the SAID40X800S, sharing the same G1/4 port, M12x1.25 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI replacement family introduces an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life, alongside SAIL and BSAI lock variants absent in the SI line. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches; a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss, as cushions only decelerate.

The B06-SAID40X800S 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 pressing mechanisms in module assembly, preventing drift during bidirectional indexing.
The double-rod design provides anti-rotation stability for moving heavy battery packs along conveyor lines, while the back rod mounts a sensor cam.
Consistent clamping force for battery tab welding operations, where the 800mm stroke accommodates varying pack widths with external guide support.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID40X800S, use the SAID40X800S direct, ensuring equal both ways force (528 N @0.5 MPa) and reusing your existing FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. Select a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation control, or when the back rod must carry a sensor cam. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. With an 800 mm stroke, external guides are required to prevent rod bending and manage side loads. For sizing alternatives, check neighbouring bores (32mm or 50mm) to match the equal bidirectional force. For load-holding without live air, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID40X800S is discontinued. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID40X800S. The direct replacement is the SAID40X800S, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 40mm bore, 800mm stroke, G1/4 port, and equal both-ways force.
Force is equal both ways at 528 N @0.5 MPa, 739 N @0.7 MPa, and 950 N @0.9 MPa. It features a G1/4 port, M12x1.25 rod thread, adjustable 27mm cushions, and operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa with speeds of 30-800 mm/s. It does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock for held loads.
