The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X125 is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø25mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø100mm bore, 125mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD100X125 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD100X125. It is mechanically identical to the base model, featuring a 100mm bore and 125mm stroke. Because the rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa.
This symmetric thrust is highly beneficial for battery cell stacking and module handling, where stable two-sided actuation is required. The cylinder features a 25mm diameter rod on both ends, PT1/2 ports, and adjustable cushions with a 29mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly. At a maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, it generates 6626 N of thrust in both directions.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC SCD (double-rod) datasheet. Because the rod runs through both caps, the effective area is (bore² − rod²) in both directions. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (standard) / G.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N | 5154 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf | |
Push and pull are EQUAL on a double-rod cylinder — both chambers lose the rod area, so effective area = (bore² − rod²) each way. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure; size with a safety margin.

Provides equal 3681 N force in both directions to precisely press and align battery cells during module stacking without rotational deflection.
Uses the dual through-rods to mount symmetric tooling on both ends, enabling balanced shuttle movements of battery packs between assembly stations.
Delivers stable 6626 N thrust at 0.9 MPa for holding battery tabs during ultrasonic welding, utilizing the anti-rotation benefits of the double rod.
Select this 100mm bore when your battery assembly line requires substantial equal-force bidirectional movement, offering 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application only needs one-way actuation, the single-rod AirTAC SC100X125 is a lighter, more compact alternative. Conversely, if your tabbing or handling fixture imposes heavy side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder will provide better support than a through rod.
When replacing this unit, match the 100mm bore, 125mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is needed. The adjustable cushion only serves to slow the piston near the end caps; it cannot hold a battery module in place if air pressure drops. For vertical loads, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required to prevent drifting.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard AirTAC SCD100X125, offering the same 100mm bore, 125mm stroke, and physical specifications, simply designated for battery industry production lines.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces (3681 N at 0.5 MPa for this bore) because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. It also offers better rod guidance, anti-rotation properties, and allows tooling to be mounted on both ends for two-sided operations.
