Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500 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, 500mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500
The B06-SCD100X500 is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD100X500 double-acting, double-rod cylinder. The B06- prefix designates its use in cell, module, and pack assembly lines, but mechanically it is identical to the standard unit. With a 100mm bore and 500mm stroke, it yields an identical push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, stepping up to 6626 N at its 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.
Because the Ø25mm piston rod passes through both end caps, you get symmetric thrust and speed in both directions along with enhanced anti-rotation stability. The cylinder features a 29mm adjustable cushion at each end to decelerate the payload smoothly. Its retracted body length is based on the SCD body length A of 263mm, making it longer than a single-rod SC equivalent.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 500 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-SCD100X500 Is Used
Battery Cell Shuttle
Transfers battery cells between processing stations with equal force in both directions, utilizing the through-rod for symmetrical high-speed positioning.
Module Stacking Press
Applies 3681 N of consistent clamping pressure at 0.5 MPa during module stacking, using the dual-rod design to prevent tooling twist.
Pack Handling Stopper
Uses the rear protruding rod as a mechanical stopper or sensor flag for battery pack routing on assembly conveyors without extra brackets.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore when your battery-handling fixture requires substantial equal bidirectional force (3681 N at 0.5 MPa) and a 500mm travel. If your application only needs one-way actuation, the single-rod AirTAC SC100X500 is lighter and shorter. If side loads are high on this 500mm stroke, use an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder to prevent rod bending.
To replace this unit, match the 100mm bore, 500mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and non-magnet configuration. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If your battery stack must maintain position without live air pressure, add an external rod brake or pilot-operated check valve.
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-SCD100X500 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD100X500, offering the same 100mm bore, 500mm stroke, and 3681 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
The double-rod design provides identical push and pull forces (3681 N at 0.5 MPa) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also offers better anti-rotation resistance and allows tooling or sensors to be mounted on the rear rod.
