Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S 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, 400mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S
The B06-SCD100X400S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD100X400S; mechanically, the specs are identical. Because the Ø25 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is balanced, yielding an equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a robust 6626 N of thrust at 0.9 MPa.
This 400 mm stroke unit features a built-in magnet (the S suffix) so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors can clamp directly onto the barrel for stroke-end detection on automated cell assembly lines. The adjustable cushion spans 29 mm to decelerate the piston near stroke end, and the retracted body length A(SCD) is 263 mm, which is longer than a single-rod SC equivalent to accommodate the through-rod.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 400 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/2 |
| Rod thread | M20×1.5 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 29 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1500 mm |
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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm, double rod)
| 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.

Where the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S Is Used
Battery Module Shuttle
Transfers battery modules between assembly stations using equal push and pull force to maintain precise timing in both directions.
Dual-Side Tab Welding
Uses the through-rod to carry welding tooling on both ends, ensuring synchronized contact on battery cell tabs simultaneously.
Non-Rotating Press
Provides better rod guidance and anti-rotation for pressing operations during battery pack housing alignment.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore when your battery handling fixture requires substantial equal-force bidirectional motion, such as simultaneously clamping and ejecting a battery module. If your application needs less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore drops the output to 2268 N at 0.5 MPa. If you only need one-way actuation, a single-rod SC cylinder saves space and weight, while heavy side loads demand a true guided cylinder rather than relying on the through-rod.
With a 400 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases, raising the risk of rod bending under offset loads; use an external linear guide to manage side loads. For a direct replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston and does not lock or hold the load if air pressure is lost.
Double-rod checklist
- ✓ Need equal force / speed both directions?
- ✓ Rear rod for tooling, stopper or sensor flag?
- ✓ Better rod guidance / anti-rotation?
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep BOTH rod ends clear of side load and interference.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCD mounting accessory (FA / LB / TC / TCM1).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X400S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD100X400S, offering the same 100 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, and 3681 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod design provides identical force and speed in both directions because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also allows mounting tooling or a sensor flag on the rear rod and offers better anti-rotation resistance than a single-rod cylinder.
