This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X150 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X150 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-SID63X150
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X150 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X150, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X150
The AirTAC B06-SID63X150 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 SID63X150. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The bore is 63 mm, the port is G3/8, and the rod thread is M16x1.5. This SID model is discontinued and the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X150, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and adjustable 30 mm cushions.
The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. For sizing, the computed safe working load is ~841 N (60% of the 1402 N @0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of ~71 kg with a 2:1 margin. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot take a sensor. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X150 Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies equal both-ways 1962 N force at 0.7 MPa for aligning and pressing battery cell stacks during module assembly.
Tab Handling Transfer
Uses the double-rod anti-rotation feature to move delicate battery tabs precisely between welding stations without drift.
Pack Dual-Tool Drive
Drives two opposing tools simultaneously from one piston, leveraging the equal push/pull force for pack loading.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X150 with the B06-SAID63X150
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X150, specify the drop-in SAID63X150, which matches the 63 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G3/8 port, M16x1.5 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting (Basic, FA, LB, TC). Size both ways using the equal-both-ways force: 1402 N @0.5, 1962 N @0.7, 2523 N @0.9. If neighboring bores are needed, the 50 mm yields 825/1154/1484 N, while the 80 mm yields 2268/3175/4082 N. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, to drive two tools, or to mount a sensor cam on the back rod. For strokes >=300 mm, verify side-load limits. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot support legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID63X150
- ✓ 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-SID63X150 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID63X150 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X150. The B06- prefix only marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically it is identical to the base SID63X150. The SAID replacement matches the 63 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting.
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 safe working load is ~841 N at 0.5 MPa, allowing a vertical lift of ~71 kg with a 2:1 margin.
