This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID50X75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID50X75 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.

The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID50X75 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 75mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID50X75, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID50X75 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID50X75. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, yielding equal force in both directions (825 N at 0.5 MPa). This model is discontinued; its drop-in replacement is the SAID50X75, which retains the 50mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/4 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface.
The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the 825 N force at 0.5 MPa implies a safe working load of roughly 495 N (60%), or a vertical lift capacity of about 42 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept switches, and a plain cylinder drifts on air loss—use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant to hold loads.

The B06-SAID50X75 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.

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 ensures precise, balanced pressure when stacking battery cells during module assembly, preventing misalignment.
The double-rod design drives dual transfer arms on a battery production line, maintaining synchronous movement without rotation.
Uses the rear rod extension to carry a cam or secondary tool, actuating a gripper to move battery packs efficiently.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID50X75, specify the SAID50X75, which is a true drop-in match for the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 50mm bore, 75mm stroke, and G1/4 port. When sizing, verify the equal both-ways force fits your load: at 0.5 MPa it provides 825 N (1154 N at 0.7 MPa, 1484 N at 0.9 MPa). If you need slightly less force, the 40mm bore offers 528 N at 0.5 MPa; for more force, the 63mm bore provides 1402 N. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation stability or need to drive two tools simultaneously. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. Since this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot use sensors; if sensing is required, select an -S model. For strokes of 300mm or longer, carefully manage side-load alignment to prevent premature wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID50X75 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X75. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID50X75. The SAID50X75 shares the exact same ISO 15552 interface, 50mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting options, but features an upgraded Y-shaped piston seal for longer life.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the push and pull forces are equal. It generates 825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1154 N at 0.7 MPa, and 1484 N at 0.9 MPa. The air port size is G1/4. Remember that a plain cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss; the adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.
