Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150 is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø16mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø40mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150
The B06-SCD40X150 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 SCD40X150. The through-rod design yields exactly 528 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, making it perfect for symmetric stacking or tabbing operations on cell assembly lines.
Because the Ø16 mm piston rod protrudes from both end caps, you gain superior anti-rotation characteristics and can mount tooling or a sensor flag at the rear. The unit features adjustable cushions with a 21 mm stroke length to tame end-of-travel impacts, operating at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø40 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø16 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 150 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod thread | M12×1.25 |
| 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 1200 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 (Ø40mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 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-SCD40X150 Is Used
Cell Stacking
Equal push and pull thrust ensures precise, balanced pressure when stacking electrode sheets in prismatic cell assembly.
Shuttle Transfer
The through-rod allows mounting dual tooling to shuttle battery modules between welding stations without rotating the payload.
Rear Sensing
The protruding rear rod provides a clean mounting surface for a flag to trigger external position sensors in tight pack lines.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X150 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 40 mm bore when your battery handling fixture requires identical force both ways (528 N at 0.5 MPa) and a rear mounting point. If your module packing station needs less thrust, step down to the 32 mm bore (345 N); for heavier pack manipulation, step up to the 50 mm bore (825 N). If you only need unidirectional pushing, a single-rod SC cylinder saves space. For high side-load deflection on a 150 mm stroke, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying solely on the through rod.
To replace this unit, match the 40 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is required. Note that air pressure must be maintained to hold a load; the adjustable cushion decelerates the piston but does not function as a mechanical brake.
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-SCD40X150 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD40X150. It is mechanically identical to the standard double-rod cylinder, offering the same 528 N equal push/pull force, PT1/4 port, and TPU seal specifications.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical 528 N force in both directions and better anti-rotation resistance. The rear protruding rod allows you to mount a second tool, a stopper, or a sensor flag, which is highly useful for battery line automation.
