The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000S 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.
The AirTAC BSE100X1000S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers a 5500 N bidirectional static holding force with no live air, preventing dropped loads during pressure loss or E-stop. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
A separate G1/8 release port unlocks the collet mechanism using 0.15-0.7 MPa. The lock engages only after the rod stops and requires >=0.5 s for full release before moving. This 1000 mm stroke version includes a -S magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X1000S 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.

Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting (BSE): Basic, LB, FA, FB, CA, CB, CR, TC (FTC is not available on BSE). Related: SE (no lock), BSED (double-rod rod lock). Sensors CMSE/DMSE fit magnetic BSE.
Holds 5500 N against gravity on large industrial doors when air is exhausted, preventing crashes while the 5497 N drive force manages the lift.
Secures a heavy tooling head mid-stroke during an E-stop. The fail-safe collet locks the 25 mm rod instantly without needing continuous air supply.
Locks a large diverter arm in position during product transfer. The collet holds the load firmly, while the 36 mm adjustable air cushion handles end-of-stroke impact.
Verify your suspended load does not exceed the 5500 N holding force. If you need less force, the 80 mm bore offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. Stepping up to the 125 mm bore yields 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa and an 8600 N hold.
Engage the lock only when the rod is stopped, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced. The PT1/2 porting and 1000 mm stroke match standard dimensions. For a 1000 mm stroke, use precise guide rails to prevent side-load damage to the seals and rod. SE mounting accessories fit this body except FTC.
Quick checklist
The drive force is 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and max 561 kgf drive at 0.7 MPa. The static holding force of the rod lock is 5500 N, which is entirely separate from the drive force.
The lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost or exhausted, the collet clamps the rod in both directions up to 5500 N. To release it safely, balance pressures on both sides and apply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port, waiting >=0.5 s before moving.
