This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID50X50 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID50X50 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-SID50X50
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 50mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID50X50, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X50
The AirTAC B06-SID50X50 is a discontinued ISO 15552 double-acting double-rod cylinder. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID50X50, mechanically identical with a 50mm bore and 50mm stroke. Because a rod exits both ends, push and pull force are equal at 825N @0.5MPa, 1154N @0.7MPa, and 1484N @0.9MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X50, which reuses the same G1/4 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and mounting interface.
The SAI upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 495N (60% of the 825N @0.5MPa figure), and vertical lift is about 42kg with a 2:1 margin. This non-magnetic SKU cannot take a sensor. Note that air cushions only decelerate; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
The B06-SAID50X50 produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X50 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal both-ways force drives precise electrode stacking and pressing in cell assembly without directional force mismatch.
Module Handling Transfer
The double-rod anti-rotation特性 keeps battery modules stable during horizontal transfer and indexing on conveyor lines.
Tab Welding Clamp
Provides consistent clamping pressure for battery tab welding, using the back rod end to mount a secondary tool or cam.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X50 with the B06-SAID50X50
To replace the discontinued B06-SID50X50, install the drop-in SAID50X50, which matches the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 50mm stroke, and G1/4 port. Size both directions by the equal force: 825N @0.5MPa, or step to a 63mm bore if more force is needed. A double rod is right when you need equal push/pull force, anti-rotation stability, or a back rod to carry a sensor cam. Mounting uses FA, LB, or TC brackets. This SKU lacks the -S magnet and cannot take a switch. For this 50mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for strokes >=300mm ensure guide alignment to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID50X50
- ✓ 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-SID50X50 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID50X50 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID50X50) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X50. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 50mm bore, 50mm stroke, equal force, and G1/4 port.
Force is equal both ways: 825N @0.5MPa, 1154N @0.7MPa, 1484N @0.9MPa. The port is G1/4, rod thread is M16x1.5, and speed is 30-800mm/s. Safe working load is ~495N.
