This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X1000 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X1000 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-SID63X1000 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 1000mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X1000, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X1000 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X1000, mechanically identical in every spec. Because a rod exits both ends, push and pull force are equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. This model is discontinued; the direct drop-in replacement is the SAID63X1000, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread.
The SAID upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the 1402 N @0.5 MPa force yields a safe working load of 841 N and a vertical lift capacity of 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept switches, and air cushions only decelerate; use an external rod lock for load holding.

The B06-SAID63X1000 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 during prismatic cell stacking and alignment in module assembly.
The double-rod anti-rotation特性 keeps battery packs stable during long 1000mm stroke transfers between welding stations.
Drives two opposing welding heads simultaneously with identical push/pull force for consistent battery tab joining.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X1000, swap in the SAID63X1000 directly—it matches the 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal both-ways force. When sizing, verify force both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. If you need less force, step down to the 50mm bore; if you need more, step up to the 80mm bore. 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. Because this lacks the -S magnet, it cannot use sensors. At 1000mm stroke, external guides are critical to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, it is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X1000. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SID63X1000; the SAID63X1000 is mechanically identical, sharing the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port.
It features a G3/8 air port and M16x1.5 rod thread. Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The safe working load is 841 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa force).
