The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD32X450S 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, 450mm stroke, PT1/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD32X450S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder configured for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the SCD32X450S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model but designated 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 450 mm stroke and a built-in magnet (the S suffix) that allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for stroke-end detection. It uses a 12 mm diameter rod on both ends, PT1/8 ports, and 21 mm adjustable cushions to decelerate the piston near the end caps. The double-rod design provides enhanced rod guidance and anti-rotation characteristics compared to a single-rod cylinder.

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.

Provides equal push and pull force to shuttle prismatic cells precisely into stacking fixtures without rotational drift.
Uses the through-rod design to mount dual tooling, moving battery modules between assembly stations symmetrically.
The built-in magnet allows solid-state sensors to confirm exact position for tab welding, while the rear rod acts as a stopper.
Choose this 32 mm bore when a compact, symmetric 483 N thrust is needed in both directions. If your battery stacking or handling process requires less force, stepping down is not an option in this profile, but if you need substantially more thrust, consider the 40 mm bore which provides 739 N at 0.7 MPa. If the application only requires one-sided actuation and does not benefit from a rear rod for tooling or sensing, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder is a lighter, more economical choice.
At a 450 mm stroke, the 12 mm rod has a long unsupported length when extended, making it susceptible to bending under side loads. For battery handling tasks involving heavy pallets or off-center loads, use an external linear guide or select a fully guided cylinder instead of relying on the rod alone. To replace this unit, match the 32 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, PT1/8 thread, basic mounting, and the built-in magnet. Note that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston; they do not lock or hold the load if air pressure is lost.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD32X450S, offering the same 32 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, and 483 N equal push/pull force, but is designated for battery cell and pack assembly lines.
The double-rod design ensures the push and pull forces are identical at 483 N (0.7 MPa), because the 12 mm rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also provides better anti-rotation resistance and allows tooling or a sensor flag to be mounted on the rear rod, which is ideal for symmetric battery handling tasks.
