This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X125S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X125S 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-SID80X125S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 125mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X125S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID80X125S 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 SID80X125S, 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 (2268 N at 0.5 MPa). It features a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 thread, 36 mm adjustable cushions, and a G3/8 port. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X125S, sharing the same interface, force, and mounting.
The SAI replacement upgrades the piston seal to two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the computed buyer insight at 0.5 MPa shows a safe working load of roughly 1361 N (60% of rated force), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 116 kg with a 2:1 margin. The double-rod design prevents rotation and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam. Note that air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not hold loads on air loss, so an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve is required for held loads.

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).
Applies equal both-ways push and pull force for precise electrode stacking in battery cell production, maintaining alignment without rotational drift.
Drives dual-side conveyor transfers in battery module assembly, using the double-rod design to move parts symmetrically and prevent yawing.
Actuates tabbing and welding presses in battery pack lines, where the back rod simultaneously carries a sensor cam to confirm press position.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X125S, specify the drop-in SAID80X125S, which reuses the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface (Basic, FA, LB, TC) and G3/8 port without bracket changes. Size both ways by verifying the equal force of 2268 N at 0.5 MPa fits your load, or step to neighbouring bores (63 mm or 100 mm) if margins require. A double-rod cylinder is right when you need anti-rotation resistance or must drive two tools simultaneously. Keep the -S magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B sensor accuracy. For this 125 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for any stroke over 300 mm, ensure guide rails to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID80X125S (battery-manufacturing dedicated SID80X125S) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X125S, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal both-ways force. The SAI family also adds upgraded piston seals and SAIL/BSAI lock variants.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 2268 N at 0.5 MPa, 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa. The air port is G3/8. The safe working load is approximately 1361 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa rating), allowing a vertical lift of about 116 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
