Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50 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, 50mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50
The B06-SCD100X50 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD100X50. Mechanically identical to the base model, it features a 100mm bore and a 50mm stroke. Because the Ø25mm 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 a robust 6626 N at 0.9 MPa.
This symmetric design is highly valued in cell and module assembly for carrying dual tooling or acting as a non-rotating pusher. The cylinder body length A(SCD) is 263mm, and it incorporates adjustable cushions with a 29mm length to decelerate the payload smoothly at stroke ends. It uses PT1/2 port threads and operates at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 50 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-SCD100X50 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force for symmetric pressing and separating of battery cells during module stacking operations.
Dual-Tool Transfer
The through rod allows mounting a secondary tooling or stopper on the rear side, enabling compact shuttle transfers on pack assembly lines.
Non-Rotating Tabbing Press
Enhanced rod guidance from the double-rod design minimizes twist during electrode tab welding and precision alignment tasks.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X50 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100mm bore when your battery handling equipment requires substantial equal bidirectional thrust (3681 N at 0.5 MPa) over a short 50mm distance. If your application only needs force in one direction, a single-rod SC cylinder is lighter and more compact. For processes with heavy side loads, remember that a through rod improves guidance but does not replace a dedicated guided cylinder.
To replace this unit, match the 100mm bore, 50mm stroke, PT1/2 port, basic mounting, and non-magnet configuration. Note that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load. If your battery tabbing fixture must maintain position without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
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-SCD100X50 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD100X50. It is mechanically identical to the standard double-rod cylinder, offering the same 100mm bore, 50mm stroke, and 3681 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
No. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends to prevent impact damage. It does not function as a brake or locking mechanism. If the battery assembly fixture must hold a load without continuous air pressure, you must use an external rod brake or pilot-operated check valve.
