The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X600 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, 600mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD100X600 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 SCD100X600. 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 a robust 6626 N at 0.9 MPa.
With a 600 mm stroke, this unit suits long-travel shuttle transfers on cell module assembly lines. The through-rod design provides symmetric bearing loading and enhanced anti-rotation characteristics compared to a single-rod actuator. It features adjustable cushions (29 mm) at both ends to decelerate heavy tooling, and the body length A(SCD) is 263 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.
| 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.

Related types: SC (single rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). SCD mounting: Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1. Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Drives long-travel shuttle tables in cell stacking lines, using the equal push/pull force to move heavy trays of battery cells consistently in both directions.
Employs the through-rod to carry tooling on both ends, allowing simultaneous clamping or positioning of battery modules from two opposing faces.
Leverages the enhanced anti-rotation capability of the double rod to hold battery tabs securely during ultrasonic welding without lateral drift.
Choose this 100 mm bore when your battery handling fixture requires substantial equal bidirectional thrust (3681 N at 0.5 MPa) over a 600 mm travel. If your application only needs one-way actuation, the single-rod AirTAC SC100X600 is lighter and more compact. For heavy side loads over this 600 mm extension, a externally guided cylinder is strongly recommended to prevent rod bending, as the through-rod offers better guidance than single-rod but cannot replace a true linear guide.
To replace this unit, match the 100 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and ensure no magnet is required. If your battery line needs pivot motion, step up to the TC centre trunnion mount (order F-SC100TC with TCM1 bracket). Remember that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston; a mechanical lock or external rod brake is required to hold a vertical load safely without live air pressure.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD100X600, offering the same 100 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, and 3681 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, simply designated for battery industry applications.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical thrust in both directions (3681 N here at 0.5 MPa), better rod guidance, and anti-rotation properties. The rear rod extension also allows you to mount a sensor flag or secondary tooling, which is ideal for compact battery module assembly stations.
