This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X200S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X200S 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-SID63X200S 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-SAID63X200S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X200S is a discontinued double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X200S. A rod exits both ends on a single piston, meaning both faces use the rod-side area and push/pull force is equal. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X200S, sharing the same 63mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. The SAI replacement uses an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life.
Because the rear rod can carry a sensor cam or drive a second tool, this design offers excellent anti-rotation stability. With a force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, the computed safe working load is roughly 841 N (60%), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. The built-in magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the 30mm adjustable cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL variant for held loads.

The B06-SAID63X200S 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 push and pull force is ideal for stacking battery cells during module assembly, ensuring precise alignment without rotational drift.
The rear rod drives a secondary sensor cam for weld position feedback while the front rod clamps battery tabs securely.
Dual rods provide stable transfer of battery packs between conveyor lines, handling loads up to 71 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X200S, use the SAID63X200S drop-in, which preserves the ISO 15552 mounting interface and equal-both-ways force. Size both ways by checking neighboring bores: the 50mm bore yields 825 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 80mm bore yields 2268 N. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or dual-tool driving. Mounting options include FA, LB, and TC brackets. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For strokes of 300mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent guide wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID63X200S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X200S, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal force. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant.
Force is equal both ways: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa. The bore dictates a fixed G3/8 air port. The safe working load is approximately 841 N at 0.5 MPa.
