This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X250S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X250S 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-SID80X250S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X250S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X250S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X250S
The AirTAC B06-SID80X250S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SID80X250S. Because a rod exits both ends on one piston, both faces use the rod-side area, making push and pull force equal at 2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3175 N @0.7 MPa, and 4082 N @0.9 MPa. It features a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 thread, G3/8 port, and 36 mm adjustable cushions. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X250S, which adds an upgraded two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
For sizing, the computed safe working load is roughly 1361 N (60% of the 2268 N @0.5 MPa figure), allowing a vertical lift of about 116 kg with a 2:1 margin. The double-rod design prevents rod rotation and lets the rear rod carry a sensor cam, while the ISO 15552 interface lets you reuse existing FA, LB, or TC mounts. 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.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X250S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal both-ways force drives precise cell stacking and pressing in module assembly, using the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for position feedback.
Tab and Busbar Handling
Anti-rotation stability from the double-rod design ensures accurate tab alignment and transfer along the conveyor without rod twist.
Pack Transfer Shuttle
Drives two synchronized tooling arms from one piston to shuttle battery packs between stations, reusing standard ISO 15552 TC mounts.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X250S with the B06-SAID80X250S
Replace the discontinued B06-SID80X250S directly with the SAID80X250S, matching the 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and ISO 15552 mounting. Because force is equal both ways, size both push and pull by the same 2268 N @0.5 MPa figure; if you need less force, step down to the 63 mm bore (1402 N @0.5), or step up to 100 mm (3681 N @0.5) for more. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation stability or want to drive two tools from one piston. Reuse FA, LB, or TC mounts; the -S suffix means the piston magnet is present for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For this 250 mm stroke, side-load is moderate, but for strokes >=300 mm ensure guide alignment to prevent binding.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID80X250S
- ✓ 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-SID80X250S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID80X250S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X250S. The B06- prefix only marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically it is identical to the SID80X250S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, G3/8 port, and force, but adds an upgraded piston seal.
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. The bore is 80 mm with a fixed G3/8 air port, a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36 mm adjustable cushions. The safe working load is ~1361 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa force).
