This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X1000S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X1000S 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-SID63X1000S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X1000S 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-SAID63X1000S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X1000S
The AirTAC B06-SID63X1000S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal. The leading B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X1000S, mechanically identical to it for cell and pack assembly tasks. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X1000S, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63mm bore, 1000mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. The SAI family upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Force is equal both ways at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. A double-rod design provides anti-rotation stability and lets the back rod carry a sensor cam, while allowing ISO 15552 mounting reuse. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 841 N (about 60% of the 1402 N @0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of approximately 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. The built-in magnet (-S) supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the 30mm adjustable cushions only decelerate near stroke end, so use an external rod lock for held loads.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X1000S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal push and pull force precisely aligns and stacks battery cells during module assembly, using the back rod for a sensor cam to track position.
Pack Handling Transfer
Drives dual-tool grippers on a battery pack line, moving components in both directions with equal 1402 N force at 0.5 MPa without rotation.
Tab Welding Clamp
Provides stable, anti-rotation clamping for battery tab welding, ensuring the 1000mm stroke remains true with external guide support.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X1000S with the B06-SAID63X1000S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X1000S, specify the SAID63X1000S directly—it is a drop-in match for the ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port. Size both ways using the equal force rating (1402 N @0.5 MPa); if higher force is needed, step up to the 80mm bore, or drop to 50mm for lighter duties. A double-rod cylinder is right when you need anti-rotation resistance or must drive two tools simultaneously. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for sensors. Because the stroke is 1000mm, external guides are required to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID63X1000S
- ✓ 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-SID63X1000S FAQ
Yes, this SID model is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X1000S. The B06- prefix only designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the base SID63X1000S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port.
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 air port is G3/8, the rod thread is M16x1.5, and it includes a 30mm adjustable cushion at each end. Speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
