This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X600 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X600 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-SID63X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 600mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X600, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X600 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X600, mechanically identical with a 63mm bore and 600mm stroke. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, push and pull force are equal at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. It features a G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and 30mm adjustable cushions at each end. This SID model is discontinued and the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X600, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and port with an upgraded piston seal using two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
A double-rod design provides inherent anti-rotation benefits and allows the rear rod to carry a sensor cam or drive a second tool simultaneously. For sizing, the computed safe working load is approximately 841 N (about 60% of the 1402 N @0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of roughly 71 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU has no -S magnet and cannot accept a magnetic switch. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for held loads.

The B06-SAID63X600 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 both-ways force drives precision stacking presses in cell assembly, ensuring consistent pressure on both extend and retract strokes.
The double-rod anti-rotation特性 keeps battery modules aligned during 600mm transfer between pack assembly stations without twisting.
Drives dual welding clamps simultaneously using both rod ends, maintaining parallel alignment for battery tab joining processes.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X600, specify the SAID63X600 drop-in: it matches the 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, G3/8 port, M16x1.5 thread, and ISO 15552 mounting (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Size both directions by confirming the equal both-ways force (1402 N @0.5 MPa) handles your load, checking neighbouring bores (50mm or 80mm) if you need less or more power. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, a rear cam, or two-tool driving. Because this lacks the -S magnet, it cannot use sensors. For the 600mm stroke, use external guides to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID63X600 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID63X600) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X600, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63mm bore, 600mm stroke, G3/8 port, and force. The SAI upgrade adds an improved piston seal.
Force is equal both ways at 1402 N @0.5 MPa, 1962 N @0.7 MPa, and 2523 N @0.9 MPa. The port is G3/8, the rod thread is M16x1.5, and speed is 30-800 mm/s. It has no -S magnet so it cannot take sensors, and the cushion only decelerates; it will not hold loads without live air.
