The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X125S 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, 125mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD32X125S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the rod passes through both end caps. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD32X125S. Because both chambers lose the 12 mm rod area, it generates an identical 483 N of push and pull force at 0.7 MPa.
This symmetric thrust is essential for battery cell stacking and tab handling. The 125 mm stroke is well within the 1000 mm maximum for this bore. The built-in magnet (indicated by the S suffix) allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to track piston position on the 187 mm body. Adjustable cushions provide 21 mm of end-of-stroke deceleration.

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 | 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.

Equal push and pull force ensures battery cells are pressed and released with identical 483 N pressure, preventing cell damage during stacking operations.
The through-rod allows mounting a gripper on the front and an ejector on the rear, enabling compact pick-and-place actions on tight battery assembly lines.
The built-in magnet lets CMSG sensors detect position directly on the barrel, ideal for confirming tab welding or handling strokes in congested machinery.
Choose this 32 mm bore when a compact, symmetric 483 N force is needed in both directions. If your battery line requires less force, stepping down is not an option below 32 mm in the SCD range, but stepping up to a 40 mm bore yields 739 N. If you only need one-way thrust and standard positioning, the single-rod SC32X125S is lighter and cheaper. For high side loads during battery module transfer, a dedicated guided cylinder is superior to relying on the through-rod.
Replacement requires an exact match: 32 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting, and the built-in magnet. Note that air pressure does not lock the piston; if a battery cell stack must hold its position without live pressure, fit an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC cylinder dedicated to battery-manufacturing applications. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD32X125S, offering the same 32 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, and 483 N equal push/pull force.
The double-rod design provides identical 483 N force in both directions and allows tooling to be mounted on both ends. It offers better anti-rotation characteristics than a single rod, though a fully guided cylinder is still required for heavy side loads.
