The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X75S 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, 75mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD40X75S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X75S. Mechanically identical to the base model, it features a 40mm bore and 75mm stroke. Because the Ø16mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 739 N at 0.7 MPa.
This symmetric design is highly valued in cell and module assembly for carrying dual tooling or acting as a non-rotating pusher. The barrel houses a built-in magnet (indicated by the S suffix), allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto it for precise end-of-stroke detection. It uses PT1/4 ports and includes adjustable cushions with a 21mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly.

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.

Provides equal push and pull force for stacking prismatic cells, ensuring consistent pressure is applied in both directions during electrode assembly.
The through-rod allows tooling mounts on both ends to shuttle battery modules between stations without requiring a cylinder reversal.
Dual rod guidance minimizes rod twist during tab welding operations, maintaining electrode alignment under the 739 N working force.
Choose this 40mm bore when your battery handling line needs 739 N of thrust and pull simultaneously within a compact 75mm stroke. If your tabbing or stacking process requires less force, stepping down to a 32mm bore provides 483 N at 0.7 MPa. Conversely, heavier pack manipulation may require the 50mm bore at 1154 N. If you only need force in one direction and lack space for a protruding rear rod, the single-rod AirTAC SC40X75S is a better fit, while extreme side-load scenarios call for a true guided cylinder rather than relying solely on the through-rod's guidance.
For exact drop-in replacements, match the 40mm bore, 75mm stroke, PT1/4 thread, basic mounting, and the built-in magnet. As a double-rod tie-rod cylinder, it is not dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 profiles.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD40X75S. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, offering the same 40mm bore, 75mm stroke, and 739 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa, but is designated for battery cell, module, and pack assembly lines.
The double-rod design provides identical 739 N force in both directions and allows mounting tooling on both ends. The through-rod also offers better anti-rotation characteristics than a single-rod cylinder. Note that the adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends; they do not hold the load if air pressure is lost, which requires an external mechanical lock.
