This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X25 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X25 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-SID63X25
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X25 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 25mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X25, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X25
The AirTAC B06-SID63X25 is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, yielding equal force in both directions (1402 N @0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X25, mechanically identical to it for cell and pack assembly tasks. This bore features a 20mm rod, M16x1.5 thread, and a G3/8 port. Because the rod occupies both faces, push and pull output match exactly, preventing rod-side drift and providing anti-rotation stability.
This SID model is discontinued and directly replaced by the SAID63X25 (same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and mounting). The SAI upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the safe working load is ~841 N (60% of the 1402 N @0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of ~71 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a -S magnet and cannot accept sensors; load-holding requires an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant, as cushions only decelerate.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X25 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal both-ways force ensures precise, drift-free pressure when stacking and pressing battery cells in module assembly lines.
Tab Welding Clamp
The double-rod architecture provides anti-rotation stability for clamping battery tabs during ultrasonic welding operations.
Pack Handling Transfer
Drives dual-tool transfer mechanisms on pack conveyors, using the rear rod extension to synchronize secondary pickers.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X25 with the B06-SAID63X25
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X25, specify the drop-in SAID63X25, reusing your existing FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. Size both directions by matching the 1402 N @0.5 MPa equal force; if more output is needed, step up to the 80mm bore (2268 N), or drop to the 50mm bore (825 N) for lighter loads. A double-rod design is correct when you need equal push/pull force, anti-rotation resistance, or a back rod to drive a second tool. This SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot use sensors. For this 25mm stroke, side-load alignment is simple, but for any stroke >=300mm, ensure rigid guidance to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID63X25
- ✓ 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-SID63X25 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID63X25 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID63X25) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X25, sharing the same ISO 15552 interface, 63mm bore, 25mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting. The SAI family also adds upgraded piston seals and SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
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), allowing a vertical lift of ~71 kg with a 2:1 margin. It operates at 30-800 mm/s.
