Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250 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, 250mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250
The B06-SCD50X250 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant, mechanically identical to the standard SCD50X250. The through-rod design yields equal thrust in both directions, providing 825 N of force at 0.5 MPa and 1154 N at 0.7 MPa.
Featuring a 20 mm diameter rod exiting both end caps and a 21 mm adjustable cushion at each end, this 50 mm bore unit manages symmetric loading effectively. The overall retracted length relies on the 207 mm body length A(SCD), which is longer than a single-rod SC equivalent to accommodate the dual protruding rods.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 250 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-SCD50X250 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides non-rotating dual-sided pressure to align and stack battery cells precisely during module assembly.
Shuttle Transfer
Drives transfer shuttles on pack assembly lines, utilizing equal push and pull forces to maintain consistent cycle times.
Tab Welding Clamp
Holds battery tabs securely from both directions during ultrasonic welding, ensuring stable and accurate joints.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X250 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when your battery-handling fixture requires identical 825 N force for both extension and retraction. If your application needs less force, the 40 mm bore offers 528 N each way; if you need more clamping power, step up to the 63 mm bore providing 1402 N. Select a single-rod SC cylinder if rear tooling or anti-rotation support is unnecessary.
At 250 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases side-load vulnerability. Use an external guide rail or a properly guided cylinder to prevent rod bending under offset loads. For exact replacements, match the 50 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is required.
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-SCD50X250 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD50X250. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, offering the same 825 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, 20 mm rod, and PT1/4 port.
No, the 21 mm adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near the stroke ends to reduce impact. If the battery assembly fixture must hold position without live air pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve.
