Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S 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, 225mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S
The B06-SCD50X225S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD50X225S. It features a 50 mm bore, a 225 mm stroke, and a built-in magnet for position sensing.
Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both directions, yielding an equal push and pull force of 825 N at 0.5 MPa. The Ø20 mm rod protrudes from both ends, supporting dual tooling or a rear sensor flag. It includes adjustable cushions (21 mm) and operates at 30-800 mm/s.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 225 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-SCD50X225S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force for pressing and aligning prismatic battery cells during stacking operations, ensuring consistent module geometry.
Dual-Sided Shuttle Transfer
The through-rod design allows tooling attachment on both ends, enabling a compact shuttle mechanism to move battery modules between processing stations.
Tab Welding Positioning
The built-in magnet allows CMSG sensors to confirm exact rod position for precise tab welding, while the rear rod can mount a mechanical stopper.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X225S the Right Cylinder?
This 50 mm bore provides 825 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery stacking or handling fixture requires less force, step down to the 40 mm bore (528 N); if you need heavier pressing power for module assembly, step up to the 63 mm bore (1402 N). Choose a single-rod SC cylinder if you only need actuation from one side, or a fully guided cylinder if the mechanism experiences high side loads.
The 225 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length (the standard range jumps from 200 to 250 mm). When replacing this unit, match five points exactly: 50 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic SCD mounting, and the -S magnet. For a 225 mm stroke, ensure external guides support the extended rod to prevent bending under load.
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-SCD50X225S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. Mechanically and dimensionally, it is identical to the standard SCD50X225S double-rod cylinder, featuring the same 50 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, and built-in magnet.
The double-rod design provides identical push and pull force (825 N at 0.5 MPa) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also offers better anti-rotation characteristics, symmetric bearing loading, and a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or sensor flags. Note that it does not hold position without live air pressure; a mechanical lock is required for static holding.
