This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is B06-SAID80X80S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the B06-SAID80X80S 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-SID80X80S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X80S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 80mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B06-SAID80X80S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X80S
The AirTAC B06-SID80X80S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID80X80S, 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). This model is discontinued and the exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X80S, which reuses the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, 80mm bore, 80mm stroke, G3/8 port, and M20x1.5 rod thread.
The SAI replacement introduces an upgraded piston seal with two Y-shaped one-way elements for low start-up pressure and long life. Beyond reusing existing FA, LB, and TC mounts, the double-rod design prevents rotation and allows the back rod to carry a sensor cam. Computed buyer insight: safe working load is ~1361 N (60% of the 2268 N @0.5 MPa), yielding a vertical lift capacity of ~116 kg with a 2:1 margin.

Where the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X80S Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies equal both-ways force for prismatic cell stacking and electrode alignment, utilizing the double-rod anti-rotation property to maintain precise parallelism during compression.
Module Transfer Handling
Drives dual-stage pusher arms on battery module assembly conveyors, using the rear rod to carry a sensor cam for position confirmation without external brackets.
Pack Tab Welding
Index battery packs into ultrasonic tab welding stations, where the equal push/pull force and ISO 15552 mounting ensure rigid, repeatable clamping.
Replacing the Airtac B06-SID Battery Dedicated ISO Standard Cylinder B06-SID80X80S with the B06-SAID80X80S
To replace the discontinued B06-SID80X80S, specify SAID80X80S for an exact drop-in with equal both-ways force (3175 N @0.7 MPa) and identical G3/8 porting. Size both ways by checking neighbor bores (63mm yields 1962 N, 100mm yields 5153 N @0.7 MPa) to match your equal push/pull requirement. A double rod is right when you need anti-rotation or a back-rod sensor cam. Select FA, LB, or TC mounting per ISO 15552. The -S suffix provides a piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For stroke >=300, verify side-load limits. A plain cylinder does not hold loads on air loss; for held loads use SAIL/BSAI or an external rod lock.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → B06-SAID80X80S
- ✓ 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-SID80X80S FAQ
Yes, the B06-SID80X80S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAID80X80S. The B06- prefix simply marks it as the battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the base SID80X80S; mechanically, every spec (80mm bore, 80mm stroke, G3/8 port, M20x1.5 thread) is identical. The SAID family also adds SAIL and BSAI lock variants the SI line lacked.
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 safe working load is ~1361 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa figure). Note that the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end; it does not hold the load on air loss.
