Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175 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, 175mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175
The B06-SCD50X175 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the leading B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD50X175. Mechanically, it is identical to the base model. The through-rod design yields exactly 825 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, making it perfect for battery cell stacking and tabbing operations that need symmetric, non-rotating actuation.
Because the Ø20 mm piston rod exits both end caps, the effective pressure area is balanced. This specific configuration features a 175 mm stroke, PT1/4 ports, and adjustable cushions with a 21 mm stroke length to protect precision tooling at stroke ends. The retracted body length is based on the 207 mm SCD body length A, which is longer than a comparable single-rod SC cylinder.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 175 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-SCD50X175 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal 825 N push and pull force to precisely stack battery cells without rotation, ensuring alignment during module assembly.
Dual-Tool Transfer
Carries welding or inspection tooling on both rod ends to pick and place battery tabs in a single cycle, boosting line throughput.
Pack Shuttle Routing
Drives symmetric shuttle mechanisms on battery pack conveyors, using the through-rod to maintain balanced bearing loads.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X175 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when a battery assembly process requires 825 N of equal force both ways to shuttle cell trays or actuate welding jigs. If your module handling demands less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore provides 528 N, while moving up to a 63 mm bore offers 1402 N for heavier pack manipulation. For single-direction pushing where rear tooling is unnecessary, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder is a simpler choice.
When replacing this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and lack of a magnetic sensor. For a 175 mm stroke, ensure external guides support the rod to prevent bending under side loads, as the cushion only decelerates the piston and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
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-SCD50X175 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard AirTAC SCD50X175, offering the same 825 N equal push/pull force, PT1/4 ports, and 175 mm stroke, but is designated for battery cell and pack assembly lines.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical 825 N thrust in both directions and allows tooling to be mounted on both ends. This anti-rotation capability and symmetric bearing loading are critical for precise battery tab welding and cell stacking, unlike a single-rod SC cylinder which only has force on one side.
