This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X600S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X600S 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-SID80X600S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 600mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X600S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC B06-SID80X600S 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 SID80X600S. Because a rod exits both ends, the piston uses the rod-side annular area on both faces, 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, and G3/8 port. This SID model is discontinued; the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X600S, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, and port.
The double-rod architecture prevents piston rotation and allows the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for CS1-B/DS1-B switches, while the SAID upgrade introduces a two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the 2268 N @0.5 MPa force yields a safe working load of roughly 1361 N (60%), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 116 kg with a 2:1 margin. Note that air cushions only decelerate near stroke end; for load holding on air loss, an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant is required.

The B06-SAID80X600S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

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 both-ways force drives precise electrode stacking and handling in battery cell assembly without rotational drift.
Dual rods push and pull battery modules between conveyor stations, utilizing the back rod for synchronous sensor tracking.
Anti-rotation stability ensures accurate alignment during battery pack tab welding and clamping operations.
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X600S, specify the SAID80X600S, which provides a true drop-in solution retaining the identical ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, and G3/8 port. Because force is equal both ways, verify your load against the 2268 N @0.5 MPa rating; if higher force is needed, step up to the 100 mm bore, or drop to 63 mm for lighter duties. Choose a double-rod cylinder when you need anti-rotation stability or must drive two tools simultaneously. Select FA, LB, or TC mounts to match your existing fixture. The -S suffix indicates a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For this 600 mm stroke, external guides are strongly recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the B06-SID80X600S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X600S. The B06- prefix simply designates it as AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the SID80X600S. The SAID replacement shares the same ISO 15552 interface, bore, stroke, and G3/8 port, 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 air port is G3/8, the rod is 25 mm with an M20x1.5 thread, and speed ranges 30-800 mm/s. Remember, air cushions only decelerate; they do not hold loads on air loss.
