This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X25 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X25 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-SID80X25
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X25 is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 25mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X25, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X25
The AirTAC B06-SID80X25 is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID80X25, mechanically identical to it. A rod exits both ends on one piston, meaning both faces use the rod-side area and push/pull force is equal both ways (2268 N @0.5 MPa). It features a 25 mm stroke, G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36 mm adjustable air cushions at each end. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X25, which shares the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, force, and port.
The SAI replacement family uses an upgraded piston seal (two Y-shaped one-way elements for long life and low start-up pressure) and adds variants like the SAIL air-released lock and BSAI clamp-lock that the SI line lacked. For sizing, the equal-both-ways force yields a safe working load of roughly 1361 N (about 60% of the 2268 N @0.5 MPa figure) and a vertical lift capacity of approximately 116 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot take a magnetic switch; a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss, as the cushion only decelerates near stroke end.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X25 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Applies equal both-ways force for precise, anti-rotation stacking of battery cells during module assembly, ensuring alignment without rotational drift.
Dual-Tool Tab Welding
The exiting back rod drives a secondary mechanism for simultaneous tab welding and handling on the battery pack line, doubling cycle efficiency.
Pack Transfer Unit
Moves battery packs between conveyors with equal push and pull force, maintaining stable kinematics across the 25 mm stroke without load bias.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X25 with the B06-SAID80X25
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X25, specify the SAID80X25, which is a true drop-in swap retaining the ISO 15552 mounting interface, G3/8 port, and 25 mm stroke. Because force is equal both ways, you size it symmetrically; if shifting loads, verify neighbor bores (63 mm or 100 mm) against the 2268 N @0.5 MPa baseline. A double-rod design is right when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously from one piston. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. As this stroke is only 25 mm, side-load bending is minimal. If load holding is required on air loss, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the cushion only decelerates.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID80X25
- ✓ 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-SID80X25 FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID80X25 (battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of SID80X25) is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X25, sharing the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, G3/8 port, and equal force.
