The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X175 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, 175mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD80X175 is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder where the B06- prefix designates it as a battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the standard SCD80X175, mechanically identical to the base model. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is identical in both directions, yielding an equal push and pull force of 3175 N at 0.7 MPa. This symmetric thrust is highly advantageous for cell handling and stacking operations requiring consistent motion in both directions.
Equipped with a Ø25 mm rod on both ends and PT3/8 ports, this unit features adjustable cushions with a 28 mm length to decelerate the piston smoothly at stroke ends. The retracted body length A(SCD) is 257 mm, which is physically longer than a comparable single-rod SC cylinder due to the through-rod design. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, and the standard TPU seals support temperatures from -20 to +70 C.

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 equal 3175 N push and pull force for pressing and aligning battery cells during module stacking, ensuring uniform pressure on both strokes.
The through-rod design allows tooling to be mounted on both ends, enabling a shuttle mechanism to transfer battery tabs or separators in two directions without retooling.
The dual-rod configuration offers enhanced anti-rotation resistance over single-rod types, which is critical for precise electrode coating or welding press applications.
Select this 80 mm bore when an application demands 3175 N of thrust both ways at 0.7 MPa. If your battery assembly line requires less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore provides 1962 N; if more power is needed, a 100 mm bore offers 5153 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need one-sided actuation, while a guided cylinder is recommended for heavy side loads, as the through rod provides better anti-rotation than a single rod but cannot replace true linear guides.
When replacing this unit, ensure the 5-point match is exact: 80 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting (or an SCD-compatible accessory like F-SC80LB or F-SC80TC), and no built-in magnet. For a 175 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length is moderate, but always verify external guide support to prevent rod bending under offset loads.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD80X175, featuring the same 80 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, and 3175 N equal push/pull force at 0.7 MPa, with no changes to physical specs or materials.
No. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end and does not act as a brake or locking mechanism. If a battery module must be held vertically or without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock, rod brake, or pilot-operated check valve is required to prevent drifting.
