The AirTAC Airtac B06-SCD Battery-Specific Standard Cylinder B06-SCD80X600S 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, 600mm stroke, PT3/8 ports and adjustable end cushioning.
The B06-SCD80X600S is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the SCD80X600S double-rod cylinder, meaning it shares the exact same physical specs while being earmarked for cell 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). The through-rod design provides excellent anti-rotation characteristics and allows tooling to be mounted on both ends.
This 80 mm bore unit features a 25 mm diameter rod protruding from both sides, PT3/8 ports, and adjustable cushions with a 28 mm length to decelerate the piston near the end caps. The built-in magnet (indicated by the S suffix) allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to clamp directly onto the barrel for position signaling. With a 600 mm stroke, the overall retracted length is notably longer than the equivalent single-rod SC cylinder.

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.

Drives dual-sided stacking mechanisms in prismatic cell assembly, using the equal push/pull force to press and align separator sheets without rotational drift.
Mounts a tooling fixture on the rear rod to act as a synchronized stopper or ejector while the front rod pushes battery modules into the pack housing.
Applies symmetric 3175 N clamping force at 0.7 MPa for busbar tab welding, utilizing the through-rod for stable, non-rotating electrode pressure.
This 80 mm bore provides 2268 N of thrust each way at 0.5 MPa. If your battery stacking or handling mechanism requires less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1402 N; if you need more clamping power for heavy pack assembly, the 100 mm bore offers 3681 N. A single-rod SC cylinder is preferable if you only need one-sided actuation, while a fully guided cylinder is recommended if the application involves severe side loads.
When replacing this unit, match the 80 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT3/8 port thread, basic mounting, and the built-in magnet. Because the 600 mm stroke creates a long unsupported rod, external guides should be used to prevent rod bending under lateral stress. Note that the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston at stroke ends; it does not lock or hold the load. If the battery module must remain suspended without live air pressure, an external mechanical lock or pilot-operated check valve is mandatory.
Double-rod checklist
The B06- prefix designates this as a battery-manufacturing dedicated cylinder. It is mechanically identical to the standard AirTAC SCD80X600S, featuring the same 80 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, and 2268 N equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa, but is specified for battery production lines.
The double-rod design ensures push and pull forces are exactly equal (2268 N at 0.5 MPa) because the rod area is subtracted from both chambers. It also provides better rod guidance, anti-rotation stability, and a rear rod for mounting secondary tooling or sensors.
