The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50 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, 50mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD80X50 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 SCD80X50. The through-rod design yields exactly 2268 N of thrust in both directions at 0.5 MPa, making it perfect for symmetric stacking or pressing tasks on cell assembly lines.
Because the Ø25 mm piston rod protrudes from both end caps, you gain superior anti-rotation characteristics and can mount tooling or a sensor flag at the rear. The unit features adjustable cushions with a 28 mm stroke length to tame end-of-travel impacts, and its retracted body length (A=257 mm) is naturally longer than a single-rod SC equivalent.

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.

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 2268 N of equal force in both directions to precisely press and align battery cell layers without rotational drift.
Uses both rod ends to push battery modules between conveyor stations sequentially, cutting cycle time in pack assembly.
Holds battery tabs securely for welding with a rear-mounted sensor flag tracking the 50 mm stroke position.
Choose this 80 mm bore when your battery handling fixture needs substantial equal bidirectional force (3175 N at 0.7 MPa). If your application only requires one-sided actuation, stepping down to a single-rod AirTAC SC80X50 saves space and weight. Conversely, if side loads are high, a dedicated guided cylinder is recommended over relying solely on the through-rod for support.
To replace this unit, match the 80 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting style, and confirm whether a magnetic piston (-S) is needed. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke ends; it does not lock or hold the load. If the battery cell being moved must remain fixed without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is required.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix indicates this is a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. Mechanically, it is identical to the standard AirTAC SCD80X50, featuring the same 80 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
The double-rod design provides identical 2268 N thrust in both directions and better anti-rotation resistance. It allows tooling or sensors to be mounted on the rear rod, which is essential for synchronized battery module handling.
