The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X150S 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, 150mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD32X150S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery-manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant of the standard SCD32X150S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model while being earmarked for cell, module, and pack assembly applications. 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 483 N at 0.7 MPa.
This 32 mm bore unit features a 150 mm stroke and a built-in magnet (the S suffix) that allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for position feedback. A Ø12 mm rod protrudes from both ends, providing dual-tooling mounting points and enhanced anti-rotation characteristics. The cylinder body length A(SCD) is 187 mm, and it includes adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends.

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.

Uses the equal push/pull force and dual rods to precisely press and align battery cells during stacking processes without rotational drift.
The through-rod design allows tooling attachment on both ends, enabling a compact shuttle mechanism to transfer battery modules between assembly stations.
The built-in magnet enables precise end-of-stroke detection via CMSG sensors, ensuring accurate positioning for battery tab welding operations.
Choose this 32 mm bore double-rod cylinder when a compact, symmetrical actuation force of 483 N (at 0.7 MPa) is required for both extension and retraction. If your battery-handling mechanism requires less force, stepping down is not an option in the SCD standard range below 32 mm, but stepping up to a 40 mm bore will provide 739 N at 0.5 MPa if your payload increases. If you do not need rear-rod tooling or equal bidirectional thrust, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder will save space and cost. Similarly, if your application involves heavy side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying solely on the through-rod for support.
To replace this unit, match the 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/8 port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S magnet option. Since the stroke is 150 mm, the unsupported rod length is moderate, but always ensure external guides are used if the load is heavy to prevent rod bending. Note that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load. If the battery module must remain fixed without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates that this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. Mechanically, it is identical to the standard SCD32X150S double-rod cylinder, featuring the same 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, and 483 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical thrust in both directions (483 N here) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. The protruding rear rod allows for dual-side tooling, improved anti-rotation stability, and symmetrical bearing loads, which is highly beneficial for precision battery assembly tasks.
