This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the SI series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement B06-SAID50X150, 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-SID50X150 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the B06-SAID50X150, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID50X150 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, ensuring force is equal both ways at 825 N @0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SID50X150. This discontinued model drops in directly with the SAID50X150, reusing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, G1/4 port, and 150 mm stroke. The SAI upgrade adds a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life.
The extruded aluminum profile barrel uses adjustable 30 mm air cushions at each end. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot take a magnetic switch. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

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).
Uses the equal both-ways force and anti-rotation properties to precisely press and align prismatic battery cells during automated stacking processes.
Drives dual pushers from opposite sides on a conveyor line, leveraging the double-rod design to index battery modules without requiring a second cylinder.
Provides consistent clamping pressure for battery tab welding, using the equal push/pull force to secure busbars while maintaining precise positional repeatability.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID50X150, use the exact direct replacement SAID50X150. It preserves the 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, M16x1.5 rod thread, and G1/4 port. Size both ways by checking the equal force: if 825 N @0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the 63 mm bore (1402 N); if oversized, step down to the 40 mm bore (528 N). A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. For strokes >=300 mm, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear. Since this SKU has no -S magnet, sensing requires external methods.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID50X150 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID50X150) is discontinued. The direct replacement is the SAID50X150, which shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G1/4 port. The SAI family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI line lacked.
Force is equal both ways due to the double-rod design: 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/4. Speed is 30-800 mm/s.
