This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X350 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X350 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-SID63X350
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X350 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 350mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X350, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X350
The AirTAC B06-SID63X350 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID63X350. A rod exits both ends of the extruded aluminum barrel on a single piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal both ways. This model is discontinued, with the exact drop-in replacement being the SAID63X350, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, and M16x1.5 rod thread. The SAI replacement also introduces an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, the equal both ways force is 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa. For sizing, the safe working load is approximately 841 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of roughly 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a magnetic switch. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; the 30 mm adjustable air cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X350 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies equal both ways force for precise cell stacking and pressing in battery module assembly, utilizing the double-rod design to prevent piston rotation during alignment.
Pack Handling Transfer
Drives a dual-sided transfer mechanism on a battery pack assembly line, using the rear rod extension to synchronize a secondary pusher without requiring a second cylinder.
Tab Welding Clamp
Provides a stable, equal-force clamping action for battery tab welding, where the G3/8 port delivers adequate flow for the 30-800 mm/s speed range required in automated cell production.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID63X350 with the B06-SAID63X350
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X350, specify the SAID63X350, matching the 63 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and FA/LB/TC mounting. Size both ways by verifying the equal both ways force (1402 N at 0.5 MPa) meets your push and pull requirements, or step to neighbour bores (50 mm or 80 mm) if a different force is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, equal force, or a back rod to drive a second tool. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support sensing; if switches are needed, select a -S model and use legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors. For the 350 mm stroke, add external guides to prevent rod-bending under side-load. Never rely on the cushion for load holding; use SAIL/BSAI or an external rod lock.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID63X350
- ✓ 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-SID63X350 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID63X350 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X350. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the standard SID63X350. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting, but adds an upgraded piston seal.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, the force is equal both ways: 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The bore dictates a G3/8 air port, a 20 mm rod with an M16x1.5 thread, and a 30 mm adjustable cushion at each end. The safe working load is about 841 N, allowing a vertical lift of roughly 71 kg with a 2:1 margin.
