Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S 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, 300mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S
The B06-SCD40X300S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix marks it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD40X300S. The through-rod design yields an identical push and pull force of 528 N at 0.5 MPa, while the 300 mm stroke provides extended travel for cell stacking or module handling. It carries a built-in magnet for position sensing.
Because the Ø16 mm rod exits both end caps, the effective pressure area is balanced on both sides. This symmetric layout improves rod guidance and allows tooling to be mounted on the rear extension. The unit features a 191 mm body length A(SCD) and adjustable cushions with a 21 mm stroke length to decelerate the piston near the ends.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø40 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø16 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 300 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-SCD40X300S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Equal push and pull force ensures precise, symmetric pressure when stacking prismatic cells into modules.
Shuttle Transfer
The through-rod allows mounting a stopper or tooling on the rear side to actuate a transfer carriage.
Tab Welding Press
The built-in magnet enables CMSG sensors to confirm press position for battery tab welding operations.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X300S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 40 mm bore when an application demands 528 N of thrust in both directions. If your battery assembly process requires less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 345 N each way; if more clamping power is needed, a 50 mm bore provides 825 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if rear tooling or anti-rotation support is unnecessary.
For a 300 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases the risk of bending under side loads; use an external guide rail or a proper guided cylinder to protect the seals. To replace this unit, match the 40 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S magnet option.
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-SCD40X300S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC cylinder dedicated to battery-manufacturing lines. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD40X300S, offering the same 528 N equal push/pull force, 300 mm stroke, and built-in magnet.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical 528 N force in both directions and allows mounting tooling on the rear rod. It offers better anti-rotation resistance than a single rod, though a guided cylinder is still required for heavy side loads.
