This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X300S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X300S 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-SID63X300S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X300S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 300mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X300S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X300S
The AirTAC B06-SID63X300S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the leading B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X300S, mechanically identical in every spec. 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. This model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X300S, which shares the same G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and 30 mm adjustable cushion. The SAI upgrade uses an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure and long life.
For sizing, the computed buyer insight from the 0.5 MPa rating yields a safe working load of roughly 841 N (60% of force) and a vertical lift capacity of about 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. The double-rod architecture prevents rod-end rotation and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam for the built-in -S magnet (legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches). Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads 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-SID63X300S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal both-ways force precisely presses and separates battery cell layers during module stacking without rotational drift.
Module Transfer Handling
Drives dual conveyors or synchronised clamps from one piston, moving battery modules smoothly between assembly stations.
Tab Welding Positioning
Provides rigid anti-rotation support for battery tab welding heads, maintaining alignment from both rod ends.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X300S with the B06-SAID63X300S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X300S, drop in the SAID63X300S directly—it preserves the ISO 15552 mounting interface, 63 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, and equal both-ways force. When sizing both ways, verify your load against the 1402 N @0.5 MPa safe limit, or step up to a neighbouring bore if higher force is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation stability or want to drive two tools simultaneously. Reuse existing FA, LB, or TC mounts. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. Because stroke is 300 mm, add external guides to prevent rod bending under side loads. Port is G3/8.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID63X300S
- ✓ 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-SID63X300S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID63X300S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X300S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X300S, so all physical specs—bore, stroke, G3/8 port, and force—remain identical.
Force is equal both ways at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The air port is G3/8. The cylinder operates at 0.15-1.0 MPa with a 30 mm adjustable cushion at each end.
