Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200 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, 200mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200
The B06-SCD40X200 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 SCD40X200. The through-rod design yields perfectly symmetric thrust, providing 739 N of force in both directions at 0.7 MPa.
Featuring a 40 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, this unit uses a 16 mm diameter rod exiting both end caps and a PT1/4 port. It incorporates adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly. The retracted body length A(SCD) is 191 mm, and it can generate up to 950 N of thrust at its 0.9 MPa maximum operating pressure.

|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø40 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø16 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 200 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-SCD40X200 Is Used
Cell Shuttle Transfer
Moves battery cells horizontally between welding and stacking stations using both rod ends to carry synchronized pincer tooling.
Non-Rotating Pusher
Pushes module components from either side with equal 739 N force, relying on the dual-rod structure to prevent plate rotation.
Dual-Action Diverter
Actuates a diverting gate on a pack assembly conveyor, using the rear rod extension to mount a physical stopper flag.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X200 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 40 mm bore when an application demands equal push and pull forces of 528 N at 0.5 MPa alongside a 200 mm stroke. If your battery-handling mechanism requires less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 345 N; if you need to shift heavier module racks, stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 825 N. If the task only needs one-way actuation, a single-rod SC cylinder is lighter and more compact, while a true guided cylinder is necessary for absorbing heavy lateral loads without bending the rod.
To replace this unit, match the 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 thread, basic mounting, and non-magnet configuration. With a 200 mm stroke, the unsupported piston rod is subject to bending under side loads; always use external guide rails or a guided cylinder to keep the mechanism aligned and prevent premature seal wear.
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-SCD40X200 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. Mechanically, the B06-SCD40X200 is completely identical to the standard SCD40X200, offering the same 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, and 739 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. In this case, both directions output 528 N at 0.5 MPa. It also offers better rod guidance and allows tooling or sensors to be mounted on the rear rod extension.
