Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100S 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-SCD50X100S
The B06-SCD50X100S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant; mechanically, it is identical to the standard SCD50X100S. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective pressure area is equal in both chambers, yielding an identical push and pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa and 1484 N at 0.9 MPa.
Featuring a 20 mm diameter rod protruding from both ends and a 100 mm stroke, this unit provides symmetric bearing loading and enhanced anti-rotation characteristics. The built-in magnet (-S) allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to be mounted directly on the barrel for position feedback. It includes adjustable cushions with a 21 mm length and a PT1/4 port.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100S |
|---|---|
| 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-SCD50X100S Is Used
Cell Shuttle Transfer
Ideal for moving battery cells between processing stations, utilizing the dual rods to carry tooling on both ends for symmetric, non-rotating part handoff.
Module Tab Welding
Provides stable, equal-force clamping on both strokes for battery module tab welding, ensuring consistent contact pressure without rotational drift.
Dual-Tooling Actuation
The protruding rear rod can mount a secondary tool or sensor flag, allowing one cylinder to execute synchronized two-sided operations in compact pack assembly lines.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application demands equal thrust in both directions, such as a shuttle mechanism that performs work on both the extend and retract strokes. If your battery assembly line requires less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore provides 528 N at 0.5 MPa. For heavier tab welding or cell pressing, a 63 mm bore offers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa.
If the mechanism only needs single-sided actuation, a standard AirTAC SC single-rod cylinder is more cost-effective. Note that while the through-rod offers better guidance than a single rod, a fully guided cylinder is recommended for heavy side loads. To replace this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, basic mounting, 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-SCD50X100S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. The B06-SCD50X100S is mechanically identical to the standard SCD50X100S, featuring the same 50 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, and built-in magnet.
Yes, because the rod occupies volume on both sides of the piston, the push and pull forces are identical. This cylinder outputs 825 N in both directions at 0.5 MPa, and 1154 N at 0.7 MPa. The adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke ends and do not hold the load if air pressure is lost.
