Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100 is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø12mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø32mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100
The B06-SCD32X100 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 SCD32X100. It features a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke, using a 12 mm piston rod that passes through both end caps. Because the rod area is subtracted on both sides, it generates an identical 483 N of thrust and pull force at 0.7 MPa.
This symmetric force design is highly effective for battery cell stacking and tab welding operations where tooling must actuate from both sides. The cylinder includes adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends, and its retracted body length A(SCD) is 187 mm. Note that the air cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not lock or hold the load if air pressure is lost.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø12 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| 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, 21 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1000 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 (Ø32mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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-SCD32X100 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal 483 N push and pull force to precisely press and align battery cells during module stacking without rotational drift.
Dual-Sided Transfer
Uses the through-rod design to mount tooling on both ends, allowing a single cylinder to shuttle battery tabs between two welding stations.
Non-Rotating Press
The dual-rod construction resists torsional twisting during electrode bonding, ensuring the 12 mm rods maintain precise contact pressure.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X100 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when your battery assembly fixture requires 483 N (at 0.7 MPa) of equal force in both directions within a compact 100 mm stroke. If your application needs less force, stepping down is not an option in the SCD series minimum size, but if you need substantially more thrust, the 40 mm bore provides 739 N. If you only need one-way actuation and want a shorter body, the single-rod AirTAC SC32X100 is a better fit.
For replacement matching, verify the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting style, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is required for position sensing. Since this is a double-rod design, the extended rear rod provides better guidance and anti-rotation characteristics than a single rod, though an external guided cylinder is still recommended for heavy side loads.
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-SCD32X100 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard AirTAC SCD32X100. It is mechanically identical to the base model, featuring the same 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 12 mm rod, and 483 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa.
The double-rod SCD design provides identical 483 N force in both directions and allows tooling to be mounted on both ends. The through-rod also offers better anti-rotation resistance and symmetric bearing loading, which is critical for precise battery assembly tasks.
