The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD40X800S 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, 800mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD40X800S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD40X800S; mechanically, the specs are identical. Because the Ø16 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is balanced, yielding an equal 528 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa.
With an 800 mm stroke, this unit suits long-reach transfer and stacking tasks on cell assembly lines. It carries a built-in magnet (the S suffix) so CMSG or DMSG sensors can track position along the stroke. The adjustable cushion runs 21 mm and the body length A(SCD) is 191 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.
| 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.

Moves battery cells between processing stations on a conveyor, using the dual rods to carry a symmetric transfer carriage that pushes and pulls with equal 528 N force.
Feeds separator or electrode layers into a stacking jig, relying on the anti-rotation characteristics of the through-rod to keep the pusher plate perfectly aligned over the 800 mm travel.
Indexes battery tabs into a welding head, using the built-in magnet and a DMSG sensor to confirm the exact extended position before the weld cycle begins.
This 40 mm bore provides 528 N each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery handling fixture needs less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore drops the output to 345 N, whereas a 50 mm bore raises it to 825 N. If you only need tooling on one side and can tolerate unequal return force, a single-rod SC cylinder saves space and cost.
For an 800 mm stroke, the long unsupported rod is vulnerable to bending under side loads—use an external linear guide rather than relying on the through-rod for support. Replacement requires matching the 40 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD40X800S. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, offering the same 40 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, and 528 N equal push/pull force, but is designated for battery production line applications.
Yes, it equalizes it. Because the rod occupies space on both sides of the piston, the push and pull forces are identical at 528 N (0.5 MPa) and 739 N (0.7 MPa). Note that air pressure must be maintained to hold a load; if pressure is lost, the cylinder will drift and requires an external locking mechanism to hold position.
