The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD63X700 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, 700mm stroke, PT1/4 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD63X700 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 SCD63X700. Because the Ø20 mm piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both directions, yielding 1402 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric thrust is ideal for cell stacking and tabbing operations that require consistent actuation in both directions.
With a 700 mm stroke, this unit features adjustable cushions with a 28 mm length to decelerate the payload smoothly at stroke ends. The retracted body length is longer than a single-rod SC cylinder, measuring 210 mm (body length A). At a maximum operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the thrust climbs to 2523 N. Note that the adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not lock or hold the load if air pressure is lost.

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 precisely press and align battery cells during module stacking without rotational deflection.
Drives long-travel shuttle mechanisms in pack assembly lines, using the rear rod to mount a synchronized stopper or flag.
Actuates dual-sided clamping tooling for battery tab welding, ensuring symmetric pressure on both ends of the joint.
This 63 mm bore is a solid middle ground, delivering 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery handling line needs less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore provides 825 N, while moving up to an 80 mm bore offers 2268 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need one-sided actuation, but choose this SCD double-rod model when you need a rear rod for mounting a stopper, sensor flag, or secondary tooling.
For a 700 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length is substantial, making the cylinder vulnerable to side-load bending. Use an external guide rail to support the payload rather than relying solely on the through rod for guidance. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, PT1/4 port thread, basic mounting, and confirm whether a built-in magnet is required.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD63X700, featuring the same 63 mm bore, 700 mm stroke, and 1402 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, with no changes to physical dimensions or seals.
A double-rod SCD cylinder provides identical push and pull force (1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also offers better anti-rotation characteristics and provides a rear rod extension for mounting secondary tooling or sensors.
