Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S
The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S 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.

About the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S
The B06-SCD80X50S is an AirTAC double-acting, double-rod cylinder built for battery manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix marks it as a battery-dedicated variant of the SCD80X50S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model. It features a 25 mm rod protruding from both end caps and a short 50 mm stroke.
Because the rod area is subtracted on both sides, thrust is perfectly symmetrical, yielding 2268 N of force in either direction at 0.5 MPa and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa. The built-in magnet (-S) allows CMSG or DMSG sensors to track piston position on the 257 mm body. Adjustable cushions provide 28 mm of end-of-stroke deceleration.
Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S |
|---|---|
| Series | SCD double-rod tie-rod cylinder |
| Bore size | Ø80 mm |
| Rod diameter | Ø25 mm (both ends) |
| Stroke | 50 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-SCD80X50S Is Used
Battery Cell Stacking
Drives a dual-sided stacking mechanism for prismatic cells, using the equal push and pull force to compress and align electrode stacks precisely.
Module Transfer Shuttle
Mounts tooling on both rod ends to pass battery modules between stations symmetrically, cutting cycle time by eliminating a return stroke.
Tab Welding Clamp
Applies 2268 N of clamping pressure at 0.5 MPa to hold busbars and cell tabs firmly during laser welding, while the rear rod carries a position flag.
Is the Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X50S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 80 mm bore when your battery stacking or handling station requires high bidirectional force (2268 N at 0.5 MPa) within a compact 50 mm travel. If your application needs less thrust, stepping down to a 63 mm bore provides 1402 N. If you only need to push in one direction and want a shorter body, the single-rod SC80X50 is a better fit.
For replacements, match the 80 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting, and the -S magnet. The through rod adds guidance over a single-rod unit, but under heavy lateral loads you should still use an external linear guide to prevent rod bending.
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-SCD80X50S FAQ
The B06- prefix designates this as a cylinder from AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated line. The B06-SCD80X50S is mechanically identical to the standard SCD80X50S, offering the same 80 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa.
Yes, it equalizes it. Because the 25 mm rod extends through both chambers, the effective area is identical in both directions. This cylinder generates 2268 N of push and pull force at 0.5 MPa, and 4082 N at 0.9 MPa. Note that air pressure is required to hold these loads; the cushion only decelerates the piston and does not act as a brake.
