This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X175S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X175S 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-SID80X175S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X175S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 175mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X175S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X175S
The AirTAC B06-SID80X175S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends on one piston, making push and pull force equal at 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID80X175S, mechanically identical with an 80mm bore, 175mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M20x1.5 rod thread. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X175S, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface and adds an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, the equal-both-ways force prevents rod deflection and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 1361 N (60% of the 2268 N @0.5 MPa figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 116 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note that a plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; the 36mm adjustable air cushions only decelerate 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-SID80X175S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies equal both-ways force for precise cell stacking and alignment in module assembly, preventing deflection during double-acting push and pull operations.
Pack Handling Transfer
Drives two tools simultaneously from a single piston, ideal for gripping and transferring battery packs along the manufacturing line without adding a second cylinder.
Tab Welding Press
Uses the back rod to carry a sensor cam for precise position feedback during tab welding, ensuring accurate electrode alignment on battery cells.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X175S with the B06-SAID80X175S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X175S, use the SAID80X175S drop-in: it matches the 80mm bore, 175mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). When sizing both ways, verify the equal force (2268 N @0.5 MPa) meets your needs, or step to neighbouring bores (63mm or 100mm) for different loads. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation, equal push/pull, or a back rod for sensors. The -S suffix provides a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For strokes >=300mm, ensure adequate side-load guidance to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID80X175S
- ✓ 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-SID80X175S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID80X175S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X175S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID80X175S, so all specs match. The SAID replacement uses the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port, but adds an upgraded piston seal.
This double-rod cylinder provides equal force both ways: 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. It never quotes a larger single-rod push value. The air port is G3/8, the rod thread is M20x1.5, and it operates at 30-800 mm/s with 36mm adjustable cushions at each end.
