The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X150S 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, 150mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD50X150S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder built for battery-manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant of the SCD50X150S, meaning it shares the exact same physical specs while being tailored for cell, module, and pack assembly operations. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding 825 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa and 1484 N at 0.9 MPa.
This 150 mm stroke unit includes a built-in magnet (S suffix) so CMSG or DMSG sensors can track position on the cylinder barrel. It features a PT1/4 port, 21 mm adjustable cushions at both ends, and a retracted body length A(SCD) of 207 mm. The through-rod design provides symmetric bearing loading and allows tooling to be mounted on the rear side for synchronized two-sided actuation.

|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |

| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 21 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 | 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.

Related types: SC (single rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). SCD mounting: Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1. Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Drives synchronized pushers on both ends to align and stack battery cells precisely without rotational drift during the compression phase.
Moves battery modules between assembly stations using dual-side tooling, ensuring balanced momentum and equal force during extension and retraction.
Applies 825 N of consistent clamping force at 0.5 MPa for battery tab welding, using the built-in magnet to confirm clamp position.
Choose this 50 mm bore when your battery-handling fixture needs equal force and speed in both directions, offering 825 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires less thrust, the 40 mm bore provides 528 N; if you need higher clamping power for pack assembly, stepping up to the 63 mm bore yields 1402 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if rear tooling is unnecessary, while a guided cylinder is recommended for heavy off-center loads.
For a direct replacement, match the 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option. The 150 mm stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, but always ensure external guides support the rod to prevent bending under offset loads.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD50X150S. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD50X150S double-rod cylinder, with the same 50 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, and 825 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
No, the 21 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends to reduce impact. The cylinder will drift if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered. A mechanical lock or external brake is required to hold a load safely without live pressure.
