Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350 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, 350mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350
The B06-SCD50X350 is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD50X350 double-rod cylinder, featuring identical internal mechanics but designated for cell and pack assembly lines. The through-rod design yields exactly 825 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, preventing the force asymmetry found in single-rod units.
Equipped with a 20 mm diameter rod extending through both end caps and adjustable cushions spanning 21 mm, it provides stable dual-side actuation over its 350 mm stroke. The retracted length relies on the 207 mm body length A(SCD), making the overall assembly longer than a comparable single-rod SC cylinder.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350 |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø50 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø20 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 350 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-SCD50X350 Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force for pressing and aligning battery cells during module stacking, ensuring consistent pressure without directional force drop.
Shuttle Transfer
Drives a dual-ended shuttle mechanism for moving battery trays between conveyor stations, using the rear rod for a secondary stopper or tooling mount.
Tab Welding Press
Applies symmetrical clamping pressure on battery tabs during ultrasonic welding, utilizing the anti-rotation benefits of the through-rod for precise electrode alignment.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD50X350 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application demands 825 N of symmetrical force at 0.5 MPa. If your battery stacking process requires less thrust, stepping down to the 40 mm bore provides 528 N each way, whereas moving up to the 63 mm bore offers 1402 N for heavier pack manipulation.
For a 350 mm stroke, the extended unsupported rod is susceptible to bending under lateral loads; employ an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder to prevent rod damage. To replace this unit, match the 50 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting configuration, 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-SCD50X350 FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. Mechanically, the B06-SCD50X350 is identical to the standard SCD50X350, offering the same 825 N force, 20 mm rod, and 350 mm stroke, but is cataloged for cell and pack assembly lines.
The double-rod design ensures push and pull forces are equal at 825 N (0.5 MPa) because the 20 mm rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also provides better rod guidance, anti-rotation capability, and a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or sensors.
