The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X175S 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, 175mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD40X175S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X175S; mechanically, the specs are identical. Because the Ø16 piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is balanced, yielding an identical 528 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa (739 N at 0.7 MPa).
This 40 mm bore unit features a 175 mm stroke and includes a built-in magnetic piston (-S) for tracking position along the battery assembly line. The cylinder body length A(SCD) is 191 mm, and it comes with adjustable cushions providing 21 mm of end-of-stroke deceleration to protect tooling during rapid cycling.

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 | 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.

Equal push and pull thrust ensures consistent pressure when stacking and compressing battery cells during module assembly.
The through-rod design allows tooling attachment on both ends, enabling synchronized part shuttling on conveyor lines.
The built-in magnet allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to detect exact stroke endpoints for tab welding and handling processes.
Select this 40 mm bore when a battery-handling mechanism requires equal push and pull forces along with a rear rod for mounting a stopper or sensor flag. If your module stacking process needs less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore provides 345 N at 0.5 MPa. For heavier pack manipulation, a 50 mm bore offers 825 N. If the application only needs one-sided actuation, a single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder is a lighter, more compact choice.
When replacing this unit, match the 40 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S magnetic piston. For a 175 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided externally; the long unsupported rod can bend under heavy side loads, so a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended if precise linear motion is required without external rails.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. The B06-SCD40X175S is mechanically identical to the standard SCD40X175S, offering the same 40 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, and double-rod configuration.
Yes, it equalizes it. Because the rod occupies space on both sides of the piston, the push and pull forces are identical. This model outputs 739 N of force in both directions at 0.7 MPa.
