The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X100 is a genuine double-acting DOUBLE-ROD air cylinder: the Ø25mm piston rod extends from BOTH end caps, giving equal effective area — and therefore equal force — in push and pull. Ø80mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD80X100 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod pneumatic cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing environments. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-dedicated variant of the standard SCD80X100, meaning it is mechanically identical to the base model but targeted for cell, module, and pack assembly lines. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both chambers, yielding an equal push and pull force of 2268 N at 0.5 MPa (3175 N at 0.7 MPa).
This symmetric design provides superior rod guidance and anti-rotation characteristics compared to a single-rod unit, which is critical when driving dual-sided tooling or shuttle mechanisms. The 80 mm bore features a 25 mm rod on both ends, PT3/8 ports, and 28 mm adjustable cushions at each end to decelerate the piston smoothly. The retracted body length A(SCD) is 257 mm, which is longer than a standard SC cylinder to accommodate the through-rod construction.

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 | 2268 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3175 N | 3175 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 463 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.

Provides the precise, non-rotating bidirectional force needed to align and press battery cells during module stacking operations.
Drives symmetric shuttle mechanisms on pack assembly lines, using the rear rod to mount a stopper flag or secondary tooling.
Applies equal clamping pressure from both directions to hold battery tabs securely during ultrasonic or laser welding.
Choose this 80 mm bore when an application demands high equal bidirectional force (2268 N at 0.5 MPa) and rigid anti-rotation control. If your battery handling system requires less thrust, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1402 N each way. Conversely, if you need to move heavier battery packs and require 3681 N at 0.5 MPa, step up to the 100 mm bore. If the mechanism only needs actuation from one side, a standard single-rod AirTAC SC cylinder is a lighter, more compact choice. For loads with significant lateral weight, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying solely on the through-rod for support.
When ordering a replacement, match five points exactly: the 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, the basic mounting style (or SCD subset accessory like F-SC80LB), and the magnet option. Note that the adjustable air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end; they do not lock or hold the load. If a battery fixture must remain suspended without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is mandatory.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD80X100. It is mechanically identical to the base model, offering the same 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, but is designated for battery production line applications.
A double-rod SCD cylinder provides equal push and pull forces (2268 N both ways at 0.5 MPa here) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. The through-rod offers better anti-rotation resistance and allows mounting tooling or sensors on the rear side, which is ideal for battery line shuttle and pressing tasks.
