The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X200 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, 200mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD100X200 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD100X200. Because the Ø25 mm piston 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 (and 6626 N at the 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure). This symmetric thrust is essential for battery cell stacking and tabbing operations where consistent force is needed in both directions.
With a 200 mm stroke, this model provides a 29 mm adjustable cushion at each end to decelerate heavy moving masses smoothly. The retracted body length is based on an A(SCD) dimension of 263 mm, making the overall package longer than a single-rod SC cylinder of equivalent bore. It features PT1/2 port threads and operates at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s.

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 precise 3681 N equal-force clamping and separation for prismatic cell stacking, ensuring uniform electrode alignment without rotational drift.
Uses the rear rod extension to carry a secondary pickup tool, allowing a single cylinder to alternate between picking and placing battery modules on a conveyor.
Applies symmetric 0.9 MPa thrust for tab welding operations, where the through-rod design maintains parallelism against the busbar during the weld cycle.
Choose this 100 mm bore when your battery assembly line requires substantial equal bi-directional thrust (3681 N at 0.5 MPa). If your application only needs one-way actuation, stepping down to a single-rod SC100X200 saves space and weight. Conversely, if your cell handling fixture imposes severe lateral loads, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over a through-rod design, as the double rod improves guidance but cannot replace linear rails. For 200 mm strokes, side-load bending on the unsupported rod is moderate; keep the load centered to maximize bearing life.
To source an exact replacement, match these five attributes: 100 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting (or the specific SCD accessory like F-SC100LB), and the presence or absence of a magnetic piston (-S). Note that the adjustable air cushions only slow the piston near stroke end; they do not lock or hold a load. If your battery fixture must maintain position without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. Mechanically and dimensionally, it is identical to the standard SCD100X200 double-rod cylinder, featuring the same 100 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, and PT1/2 ports.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull force (3681 N at 0.5 MPa for this bore) because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. It also allows tooling to be mounted on the rear rod for two-sided actuation and offers better anti-rotation resistance than a single-rod version.
