The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X600 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, 600mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD63X600 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD63X600, sharing the exact same mechanical specifications. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa (2523 N at 0.9 MPa). This symmetric thrust is crucial for stable, non-rotating actuation in cell stacking and module handling.
With a 600 mm stroke, this unit provides extended travel for long-distance shuttle transfers on battery assembly lines. It features adjustable cushions with a 28 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends. Note that an SCD cylinder is longer than a single-rod SC type of the same bore and stroke; this 63 mm bore model has a base body length A(SCD) of 210 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.
| 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.

Related types: SC (single rod), SCJ (adjustable stroke), SCT (multi-position). SCD mounting: Basic, FA, LB, TC, TCM1. Seals: TPU standard / H = Viton / N = NBR. Thread: blank = PT, G = G thread.
Provides equal push and pull thrust to shuttle battery cell layers precisely between stacking stations without rotational drift.
The through-rod design supports dual tooling mounts, enabling a 600 mm bidirectional transfer of battery modules along the assembly conveyor.
Uses the rear rod extension to carry a sensor flag, giving the welding head exact position feedback while the front rod actuates the clamp.
Choose this 63 mm bore when an application demands exactly 1402 N of force in both directions over a 600 mm travel. If your battery line requires less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore provides 825 N each way, while moving up to an 80 mm bore offers 2268 N. For tasks that only need thrust in one direction and do not require a rear rod for tooling or sensing, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder is a lighter, more compact choice.
When replacing this unit, match five points: 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting (or the required SCD accessory like F-SC63LB), and the magnet option (-S). Because the 600 mm stroke creates a long unsupported rod, avoid excessive side loads by using an external guide rail or a dedicated guided cylinder to prevent rod bending and premature bearing wear.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD63X600, offering the same 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, and 1402 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, but is designated for battery cell and pack assembly lines.
No, the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce impact. It does not lock or hold the load. If your battery handling application must maintain position without live air pressure, you must use an external mechanical lock, a rod brake, or a pilot-operated check valve.
