This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X200S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X200S 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-SID80X200S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 200mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X200S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID80X200S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where a rod exits both ends, 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 SID80X200S, mechanically identical with a 80mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36mm adjustable cushions. This SID model is discontinued and is fully replaced by the drop-in SAID80X200S, which retains the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and equal-both-ways force.
Because both faces use the rod-side area, the double-rod design provides inherent anti-rotation stability and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam, ideal for high-precision battery stacking. 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 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 cushion only decelerates near stroke end, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant 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).
Equal push and pull force ensures precise, anti-rotation alignment when stacking battery cells during module assembly.
Drives dual-tool grippers on a conveyor line, utilizing the back rod for a sensor cam to track pack positions.
Provides stable 2268 N clamping @0.5 MPa for battery tab welding, maintaining strict parallelism via the double-rod profile.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X200S, specify the SAID80X200S. It is a true drop-in: same ISO 15552 interface, 80mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal-both-ways force. When sizing both ways, verify the 2268 N @0.5 MPa suits your load, or step to neighbouring bores (63mm or 100mm) if capacity changes. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation resistance or must drive two tools simultaneously. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. The -S suffix means a built-in piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For strokes at or over 300mm, carefully manage side-load alignment to prevent premature seal wear.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID80X200S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X200S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SID80X200S. The SAID replacement shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80mm bore, 200mm stroke, G3/8 port, and equal-both-ways force.
Because it is a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s. It uses a G3/8 air port and M20x1.5 rod thread. The safe working load is approximately 1361 N.
