Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK. If air is cut or an E-stop is hit, the collet clamps the Ø25mm rod and holds up to 5500 N in either direction — no drift. Ø100mm bore, 1000mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000
The AirTAC BSE100X1000 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It provides a robust bidirectional static holding force of 5500 N with no live air required, ensuring suspended loads stay exactly where they stop if pressure drops. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
This model uses a separate G1/8 release port to overcome the internal collet clamp, meaning the standard adjustable air cushions are for end-of-stroke deceleration, not load holding. Because it shares the SE body, standard SE mounting accessories fit perfectly, except for the FTC variant.
Rod Lock — 5500 N Static Holding (Ø100mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000 holds its position in both directions when air is lost, exhausted or an E-stop trips. Apply 0.15–0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port to unlock. Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped (it is not a dynamic brake), and release only when the pressures on both sides of the piston are balanced. Allow at least 0.5 s for full release before moving.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC BSE datasheet. The lock uses the SE standard body; SE mounting accessories fit BSE except FTC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3927 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 5498 N | — |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 561 kgf | |
Drive force is separate from the 5500 N static holding force of the lock. BSE operates up to 0.7 MPa. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000 Is Used
Vertical Lift Gates
Holds heavy industrial lifting gates securely in place with 5500 N of fail-safe force the moment compressed air is lost or E-stop is hit.
Pallet Diverter Arms
Prevents sudden drops of heavy pallet diverter mechanisms, using the mechanical collet lock to clamp the 25 mm rod instantly upon pressure loss.
Press Tool Clamps
Maintains absolute position on large press tooling, ensuring the 5497 N drive force moves the load while the lock safely secures it during dwell cycles.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your load does not exceed the 5500 N holding capacity. If you need less force, the 80 mm bore offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold; stepping up is not possible as 100 mm is the largest standard here. Remember to engage the lock only after the rod fully stops and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving.
For this 1000 mm stroke, always use a guide to prevent side-load damage to the front seal. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so no CMSE or DMSE position sensors can be attached. Ensure your replacement matches the PT1/2 cylinder port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36 mm cushion length.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 5500 N?
- ✓ Fail-safe hold on air loss / E-stop needed
- ✓ Lock engaged only when stopped
- ✓ G1/8 release-air line available
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for CMSE/DMSE sensors?
Installation & Safety Notes
- check Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped — not as a dynamic brake.
- check Release only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced.
- check Allow ≥0.5 s for full release before commanding motion.
- check Feed the G1/8 release port with 0.15–0.7 MPa clean air.
- check Add safety-rated controls for man-rated / overhead loads.
- check Use SE mounting accessories (FTC excepted).
Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000 FAQ
The drive force is 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa (max 561 kgf drive). The static holding force of the spring-applied rod lock is 5500 N, which is entirely separate from the pneumatic drive force.
The lock is spring-applied and air-released, so if air is lost, the internal collet immediately clamps the rod with 5500 N of bidirectional force. It is a static hold, not a dynamic brake, so you must only engage it after the rod has completely stopped.
