This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID50X75S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID50X75S 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-SID50X75S 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-SAID50X75S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID50X75S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the "B06-" prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID50X75S, 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 at 825 N @0.5 MPa, 1154 N @0.7 MPa, and 1484 N @0.9 MPa. The bore is 50 mm, the port is G1/4, and it has an M16x1.5 rod thread. This SID model is discontinued and replaced by the drop-in SAID50X75S.
The SAI replacement uses an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The dual-rod design prevents rotation and lets the back rod carry a sensor cam. For sizing, the safe working load is ~495 N (60% of the 825 N @0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of ~42 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the cushion only decelerates, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for holding.

The B06-SAID50X75S 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).
Applies equal push and pull force for precise, anti-rotation stacking of prismatic battery cells during module assembly.
Drives dual-tool grippers on a conveyor line to pick and place battery tabs, utilizing the double-rod's equal force both ways.
Square up battery packs on the production line using the rigid dual-rod structure to prevent twisting under offset loads.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID50X75S, specify the drop-in SAID50X75S, which retains the exact ISO 15552 interface, G1/4 port, and 75 mm stroke. Size both ways using the equal force output (825 N @0.5 MPa); if more force is needed, step up to the 63 mm bore, or drop to the 40 mm bore if less is required. A double-rod configuration is right when you need anti-rotation, to drive two tools, or to mount a sensor cam on the back rod. You can reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts. The -S suffix means a magnet is present for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For this 75 mm stroke, side-load alignment is generally forgiving, but always verify rod alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID50X75S (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID50X75S) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID50X75S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 50 mm bore, 75 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and mounting, but features an upgraded piston seal.
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. The safe working load is ~495 N, allowing a vertical lift of ~42 kg with a 2:1 margin.
