The AirTAC Airtac B06-TCL Battery Dedicated Air Cylinder B06-TCL25X20S is a genuine JIS-standard guided cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 20mm stroke on twin guide rods. Its integrated steel-ball linear bearing gives low-friction, high-precision travel — well suited to vertical lifts and high-load, high-accuracy moves, holding the tool square to ±0.06° of rotation without any external linear guide.
The AirTAC B06-TCL25X20S is a JIS guided twin-rod double-acting cylinder built for battery-manufacturing lines. The B06- prefix marks this as a battery-dedicated variant of the TCL25X20S, retaining the exact same mechanical specs. It uses a steel-ball linear bearing for low-friction, high-precision travel, generating 245 N of push at 0.5 MPa.
The integrated twin guide rods eliminate the need for an external linear slide, saving space on cell stacking or module handling stations. A non-rotating tolerance of ±0.06° keeps grippers square under off-centre loads. The Ø12 mm piston rod uses 1/8" ports, and stroke ends are damped by fixed TPU bumpers rather than an adjustable cushion.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TCL/TCM series datasheet (JIS standard). Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every TC model ships with a built-in magnet for sensor switches.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 189 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | — |
| Max | 50 kgf | |
Force is set by the bore and piston rod (Ø12 mm); the twin guide rods carry side load and torque, not thrust. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.
| TC | Tri-rod (guided, twin-rod) cylinder, double acting. |
|---|---|
| L | Bearing: Steel-ball linear bearing (L = linear ball). |
| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×20 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Built-in magnet (standard on TC) for a magnetic sensor switch. |
Sister type: TCM25X20 (brass sliding bearing, more impact/dust tolerant). Thread codes: blank = PT · G · T = NPT.
Lifts and aligns battery cells with 245 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa. The steel-ball linear bearing ensures smooth, stick-slip-free vertical travel for delicate separator stacking.
Positions module tabs for laser welding. The ±0.06° non-rotating tolerance keeps the welding fixture perfectly square under off-centre loads without needing an external guide.
Acts as a gating stop for battery packs on a conveyor. The twin guide rods absorb the side load of incoming packs, while the fixed TPU bumpers soften the stopping impact.
This 25 mm bore delivers 245 N push and 189 N pull at 0.5 MPa (344 N push at 0.7 MPa, 50 kgf max). If you need less force, the Ø20 bore provides roughly 157 N of push; for heavier tabbing or pressing, the Ø32 bore gives ~402 N. Choose the sibling TCM series with its brass sliding bearing if the cell line involves heavy impacts or dusty radial loads.
For battery line replacements, match the 25 mm bore, 20 mm stroke, 1/8" PT ports, and the standard S magnet. Note that the guide prevents rotation but will not stop the rod from drifting down on air loss; add an external rod lock for fail-safe vertical holding.
Quick checklist
This cylinder generates 245 N of push and 189 N of pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 344 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The B06- prefix indicates this is AirTAC's battery-manufacturing dedicated variant of the TCL25X20S, mechanically identical to the base model. It uses fixed rubber TPU bumpers at each end to soften strokes; there is no adjustable air cushion screw to set.
