This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID50X450S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID50X450S in place of this model. 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-SID50X450S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X450S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 450mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID50X450S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X450S
The AirTAC B06-SID50X450S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends, making push and pull force equal at 825 N @0.5 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SID50X450S. This discontinued model drops directly into existing ISO 15552 mounts with a G1/4 port and M16x1.5 rod thread. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X450S.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, force is equal both ways (825/1154/1484 N at 0.5/0.7/0.9 MPa). The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure. For sizing, the safe working load is ~495 N (60% of the 825 N figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of ~42 kg with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix provides a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X450S Is Used
Cell Stacking Alignment
Applies equal both-ways force for precise electrode alignment and stacking in prismatic cell assembly.
Module Transfer Handling
Drives dual-tool pickers for battery module transfer, using the rear rod to mount a sensor cam.
Pack Tab Welding Clamp
Provides anti-rotation clamping for busbar tab welding, ensuring rigid holding without twist.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X450S with the B06-SAID50X450S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID50X450S, use the SAID50X450S; it preserves the 50mm bore, 450mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface. Size both directions by confirming the 825 N @0.5 MPa output fits your load, or step to neighbouring bores (63mm yields 1402 N) if more equal-both-ways force is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, a back rod to carry a sensor cam, or to drive two tools. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. The -S magnet enables position sensing. For this 450mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID50X450S
- ✓ 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-SID50X450S FAQ
Yes, it is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X450S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically it is identical to the SID50X450S. The SAID maintains the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G1/4 port.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G1/4. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; for load holding without live air, use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
