Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100 is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø20mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø50mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100
The B06-SCD50X100 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD50X100. Mechanically, it shares the exact same physical specifications, offering 825 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa because the Ø20 rod passes through both end caps, equalizing the effective pressure area.
With a 100 mm stroke and a 207 mm body length A(SCD), this unit is tailored for compact cell stacking and tabbing operations. The adjustable cushion runs 21 mm to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends, and the PT1/4 port ensures reliable airflow for 30-800 mm/s cycling.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT1/4 |
| Rod thread | M16×1.5 |
| 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 (Ø50mm, double rod)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 825 N | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1155 N | 1155 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 168 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-SCD50X100 Is Used
Cell Stacking Press
Applies even 825 N clamping pressure from both rod ends to align and compress battery cell stacks without shifting.
Module Shuttle Transfer
Uses the dual protruding rods to push and retract a battery module carriage with identical speed and force in both directions.
Tab Welding Clamp
Holds welding tooling on the front rod and a sensor flag on the rear rod to maintain precise synchronization during tab joining.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when a battery assembly process requires identical 825 N force in both directions, such as shuttle transfers where tooling is mounted on both rod ends. If your application only needs force in one direction, the single-rod AirTAC SC50X100 is lighter and more compact. For heavy side loads, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying on the through-rod's inherent anti-rotation properties.
To replace this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, basic mounting, and lack of a magnetic sensor. The SCD mounting subset includes Basic, FA, LB, and TC styles, but excludes FB, CA, and CB brackets.
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-SCD50X100 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated version of the SCD50X100. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, offering the same 825 N equal push and pull force at 0.5 MPa, but is designated for battery cell, module, and pack assembly lines.
No, the cylinder does not lock or hold a load without live air pressure. The adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends. If a battery module must be held vertically without pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
