The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X100S 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. Ø63mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD63X100S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the standard SCD63X100S; mechanically, the bore, stroke, and force specs remain identical. A through-rod design means the Ø20 mm piston rod extends from both end caps, yielding perfectly symmetric thrust of 1402 N in both directions at 0.5 MPa.
Because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers, push and pull forces stay matched, which is critical for stable cell stacking and tabbing operations. The built-in magnet (-S) allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to track position on the 210 mm body length. Adjustable cushions at both ends provide 28 mm of deceleration to protect tooling during rapid cycling.

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 | 1402 N | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1962 N | 1962 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 286 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.

Equal push and pull thrust ensures uniform pressure when stacking battery cells, preventing misalignment during the compression cycle.
The double-rod configuration carries tooling on both ends to shuttle battery modules between assembly stations without rotating the payload.
The built-in magnet enables precise end-of-stroke confirmation via CMSG sensors, ensuring accurate placement for battery tab welding.
Choose this 63 mm bore when a battery-handling fixture requires equal force both ways and a rear rod for mounting a stopper or sensor flag. If your application needs less thrust, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N at 0.5 MPa; for heavier pack manipulation, step up to the 80 mm bore providing 2268 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if rear tooling is unnecessary, while extreme side loads demand a true guided cylinder rather than relying on the through rod.
To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet. Remember that adjustable cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not lock the load. If the battery module must hold position without live air pressure, install an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this cylinder is part of AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. The B06-SCD63X100S is mechanically identical to the standard SCD63X100S, offering the same 1402 N equal push and pull force at 0.5 MPa, but is designated for cell, module, and pack assembly applications.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical force in both directions because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also offers a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or sensor flags, better anti-rotation resistance, and symmetric bearing loading, which is ideal for battery line shuttle and transfer mechanisms.
