The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X300S 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, 300mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD63X300S 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 SCD63X300S. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both directions, yielding an equal push and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa and 2523 N at 0.9 MPa.
This 300 mm stroke unit includes a built-in magnet (the S suffix) so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors can clamp directly onto the barrel for end-of-stroke signaling. It features a 28 mm adjustable cushion at each end to decelerate the payload smoothly, and its retracted body length is based on the SCD-specific A dimension of 210 mm, which is longer than a comparable single-rod SC cylinder.

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 force ensures precise, symmetric pressure when stacking prismatic cells, preventing misalignment during the compression phase.
The through-rod design allows mounting a stopper or tooling on the rear side, enabling a compact shuttle mechanism to move battery modules between test stations.
Dual rods provide better torsional resistance than a single rod, keeping welding fixtures stable during tab welding operations on battery packs.
This 63 mm bore is a strong middle ground, delivering 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery stacking or handling mechanism needs less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore drops the output to 825 N; if you need more clamping power for pack assembly, an 80 mm bore raises it to 2268 N. If the application only requires force in one direction and has no rear tooling needs, a single-rod SC cylinder is a simpler choice.
When ordering a replacement, match the 63 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet option exactly. Because this model uses a 300 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases side-load susceptibility; for heavy battery modules, use an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder rather than relying on the through-rod alone.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD63X300S. It is mechanically identical to the standard model, offering the same 1402 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, PT ports, and built-in magnet, but designated for battery production lines.
No. The 28 mm adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke; it does not lock or hold the load. If a battery module must be held vertically or against gravity without live air pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
