This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X200 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X200 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-SID63X200 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 200mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X200, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X200 is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the rod exits both ends, generating equal force both ways at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the base SID63X200 with a 63mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot take a sensor.
This SID model is discontinued and replaced directly by the SAID63X200. The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life. The double-rod design prevents rod rotation and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam or drive a second tool. Computed buyer insight: 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.

The B06-SAID63X200 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 both-ways force for precise cell stacking and pressing in module assembly, utilizing the anti-rotation stability of the double-rod design.
Drives dual-tool pick-and-place mechanisms on battery pack assembly lines, moving concurrently on both ends without rod rotation.
Provides a stable 1402 N @0.5 MPa clamping force for battery tab welding, with the back rod available to mount a mechanical cam.
Replace the discontinued B06-SID63X200 with the drop-in SAID63X200, reusing the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and G3/8 port. Size both ways using the equal push/pull force; if 1402 N @0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the 80mm bore, or step down to 50mm for lower force. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation, a back-rod sensor cam, or dual-tool driving. For strokes >=300mm, verify side-load bearing limits. This non-magnetic SKU cannot support switches; select an -S model if sensing is required. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; for held loads use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID63X200 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X200. The B06- prefix simply designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X200. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting, but adds an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal.
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 (60% of the 0.5 MPa rating). Note that the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end; it does not hold loads on air loss.
