This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID63X800S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID63X800S 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-SID63X800S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 800mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID63X800S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID63X800S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston, ensuring push and pull force are equal at 1402 N (@0.5 MPa). The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID63X800S, mechanically identical to it for cell and pack assembly lines. This discontinued model drops directly into the SAID63X800S replacement—same G3/8 port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and 30 mm adjustable cushions. The SAI upgrade uses a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, force is equal both ways (1962 N @0.7 MPa, 2523 N @0.9 MPa). A back rod can carry a sensor cam or drive two tools simultaneously, and the ISO 15552 mounting interface allows complete reuse of existing FA, LB, or TC brackets. For this 800 mm stroke, external guides are recommended to manage side-load and rod-bending. The -S magnet supports legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. Computed buyer insight: safe working load is ~841 N (60% of the 1402 N @0.5 MPa figure), yielding a vertical lift capacity of ~71 kg with a 2:1 margin.

The B06-SAID63X800S 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 and pressing fixtures in cell assembly, utilizing the back rod for a sensor cam without load bias.
Double-rod anti-rotation stability transfers battery modules along conveyors, ensuring grippers remain perfectly aligned during 800 mm transfers.
Vertical lift of battery packs up to 71 kg (2:1 margin at 0.5 MPa), with external guides supporting the long 800 mm stroke to prevent rod bending.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID63X800S, use the SAID63X800S drop-in: it matches the 63 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting interface. Size both ways by verifying the equal-both-ways force (1402 N @0.5 MPa) meets your push and pull requirements, or step to neighbouring bores (50 mm or 80 mm) if a different capacity is needed. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, a back rod to carry a sensor cam, or to drive two tools. Select FA, LB, or TC mounting as your application dictates, and ensure the -S magnet is specified for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensor accuracy. For this 800 mm stroke, add external guides to prevent rod-bending under side-load. Note: a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; for held loads use an external rod lock or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID63X800S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID63X800S. The B06- prefix only marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically it is identical to the SID63X800S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 63 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and mounting, but adds an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, 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 rod thread is M16x1.5, and it has 30 mm adjustable cushions. The safe working load is ~841 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa force). A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.
