Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X900
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X900 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, 900mm stroke, PT1/2 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X900
The B06-SCD100X900 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD100X900. Mechanically identical to the base model, it features a 100mm bore and a 900mm stroke. Because the 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. This symmetric thrust is ideal for battery cell stacking and module transfer where reversing motions must feel identical.
This unit carries a Ø25mm rod protruding from both ends and uses PT1/2 ports. The adjustable cushion strokes are 29mm long, ensuring smooth deceleration at the extremes of the 900mm travel. Operating on filtered air between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa, the cylinder achieves speeds of 30-800 mm/s. The retracted body length is based on an A(SCD) dimension of 263mm, which is physically longer than a comparable single-rod SC cylinder to accommodate the through-rod design.

| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X900 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø100 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 900 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-SCD100X900 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force to precisely press and align prismatic cells during module stacking without rotational drift.
Pack Shuttle Transfer
Uses the through-rod design to mount dual tooling or stops, moving heavy battery packs between welding stations symmetrically.
Module Sorting Diverter
Leverages the non-rotating characteristics of the double-rod structure to push battery modules accurately onto branching conveyors.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD100X900 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100mm bore when your battery handling equipment requires substantial equal bidirectional thrust (3681 N at 0.5 MPa). If your tabbing or sorting process needs less force, stepping down to an 80mm bore provides 2268 N each way. Conversely, if your pack assembly line demands heavier shifting, the 125mm bore offers 5734 N. Remember that a single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need unidirectional work and want to save space, while a true guided cylinder is necessary if the battery trays impose severe side loads.
With a 900mm stroke, the unsupported rod length is significant; always use an external guide rail to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear. To replace this cylinder, match the 100mm bore, 900mm stroke, PT1/2 port thread, basic mounting, and lack of a magnetic sensor. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and will not hold a load vertically if air pressure is lost—install a pilot-operated check valve or external mechanical brake for battery stack positioning safety.
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-SCD100X900 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD100X900. It is mechanically identical to the standard double-rod cylinder, featuring the same 100mm bore, 900mm stroke, and 3681 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical thrust in both directions (3681 N here) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. The rear protruding rod allows mounting a sensor flag or secondary tooling, and the dual-rod guidance offers better anti-rotation for handling delicate battery cells.
