Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500S 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-SCD100X500S
The B06-SCD100X500S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the SCD100X500S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model. It features a 100 mm bore and a 500 mm stroke, driven by a Ø25 mm piston rod extending from both end caps.
Because the rod occupies both chambers, the effective area is identical in each direction, yielding an equal push and pull thrust of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and 6626 N at 0.9 MPa. The included -S suffix provides a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor tracking along the 263 mm body length A(SCD), while adjustable cushions deliver 29 mm of end-of-stroke deceleration.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500S |
|---|---|
| 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-SCD100X500S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Drives symmetric stacking mechanisms for prismatic cell assembly, using the dual rods to maintain parallel pressure across the electrode sheets.
Module Shuttle Transfer
Moves battery modules between welding and testing stations, utilizing the equal push and pull thrust to ensure consistent indexing in both directions.
Tab Welding Press
Applies 3681 N of clamping force at 0.5 MPa for tab welding operations, with the built-in magnet confirming press position for the PLC.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X500S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore when your battery handling fixture requires substantial symmetric force (3681 N at 0.5 MPa) across a 500 mm travel. If your application needs less thrust, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2268 N at 0.5 MPa. For operations demanding higher force, a 125 mm bore provides 5734 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need one-sided actuation, while a guided cylinder is strongly recommended if the tooling experiences heavy side loads.
At 500 mm of stroke, the unsupported rod length increases susceptibility to bending under offset loads; utilize external guide rails to maintain alignment. For exact replacements, match the 100 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and will not hold a 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-SCD100X500S FAQ
The B06- prefix designates this as a cylinder dedicated to battery manufacturing applications. Mechanically, the B06-SCD100X500S is completely identical to the standard SCD100X500S, featuring the same 100 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, and physical specifications.
The double-rod design provides equal push and pull force of 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, allowing tooling to be mounted on both ends. It offers better rod guidance and anti-rotation characteristics than a single-rod cylinder, which is critical for maintaining precise alignment in battery assembly processes.
