Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S 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, 250mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S
The B06-SCD80X250S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder engineered for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-industry dedicated variant of the standard SCD80X250S; mechanically, the bore, stroke, and physical specifications remain completely identical. Because the piston rod passes through both end caps, the effective area is symmetrical, generating an equal 2268 N of thrust and pull force at 0.5 MPa. This symmetry is ideal for stacking battery cells or transferring modules where identical dynamics are required in both directions.
A Ø25 mm hardened rod protrudes from both ends, providing dual tooling mounting points and enhanced anti-rotation stability compared to a single-rod actuator. The built-in magnet (indicated by the S suffix) allows CMSG or DMSG reed sensors to clamp directly onto the cylinder barrel for precise end-of-stroke detection in automated assembly equipment. Adjustable cushions at each end provide 28 mm of deceleration to protect tooling during high-speed cycling, and the retracted body length A(SCD) is 257 mm.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 250 mm |
| Rod configuration | Double rod — rod through both caps |
| Acting type | Double acting |
| Port size | PT3/8 |
| Rod thread | M20×1.5 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 28 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 1500 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm, double rod)
| 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.

Where the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Provides equal push and pull force for pressing and stacking battery cells, ensuring consistent pressure and alignment during module assembly.
Module Transfer Shuttle
Uses the dual-rod design to shuttle battery packs between stations, allowing tooling attachment on both ends for bidirectional loading.
Non-Rotating Tab Welding
The through-rod prevents rotational play, maintaining precise electrode alignment for battery tab welding operations.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 80 mm bore when an application demands substantial equal bidirectional force (3175 N at 0.7 MPa) and a 250 mm stroke. If your battery handling system requires less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. If you need higher thrust for heavy pack manipulation, a 100 mm bore provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa. Remember that while the through-rod offers better guidance than a single rod, it is not a substitute for a true guided cylinder under heavy side loads.
For a 250 mm stroke, the unsupported rod length increases; use an external guide rail to prevent rod bending under offset loads. To replace this unit, match the 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting style, and the -S 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 module must remain suspended without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is mandatory.
Double-rod checklist
- ✓ Need equal force / speed both directions?
- ✓ Rear rod for tooling, stopper or sensor flag?
- ✓ Better rod guidance / anti-rotation?
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep BOTH rod ends clear of side load and interference.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use SCD mounting accessory (FA / LB / TC / TCM1).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X250S FAQ
The B06- prefix indicates this is an AirTAC cylinder dedicated to battery manufacturing applications. It is mechanically identical to the standard SCD80X250S, featuring the same 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
A double-rod cylinder provides identical push and pull forces because the rod area is subtracted from both sides. It also offers better anti-rotation characteristics, allows tooling to be mounted on both ends, and symmetrically loads the bearings, which is crucial for high-speed battery assembly lines.
