Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X175
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X175 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, 175mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X175
The AirTAC BSE100X175 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the Ø25 mm piston rod, delivering a 5500 N bidirectional static holding force. If air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the lock engages automatically to hold your load safely in place.
The cylinder drive operates at 0.15-0.7 MPa, generating 5497 N of push force at max pressure. Note the lock is a holding device, not a dynamic brake. A separate G1/8 release port unlocks the collet, which requires balanced piston pressure and at least 0.5 s before motion. This unit has no -S magnet, meaning no CMSE or DMSE position sensors can be fitted.
Rod Lock — 5500 N Static Holding (Ø100mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X175 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.

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 BSE100X175 Is Used
Automated Press Feeder
Holds a 4000 N vertical material lift securely in place during press cycling, preventing a catastrophic drop if shop air falls below 0.15 MPa.
Heavy Machining Clamp
Maintains 5500 N of clamping force on a steel block during milling, keeping the part fixed even if the main 0.7 MPa supply is exhausted.
Pallet Stop Gate
Acts as a fail-safe stop for 5000 kg conveyor pallets, locking instantly via the collet mechanism during an E-stop to prevent rollback.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X175 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load does not exceed the 5500 N holding capacity. If you need less holding force, the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N of hold. For heavier loads, the 125 mm bore offers 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa and 8600 N of hold. Always engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and release it only when pressures are balanced.
When replacing, match the 100 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, and your specific mounting code. SE-compatible mounting accessories fit this body perfectly, except for FTC. Because the stroke is 175 mm, ensure proper guide support to prevent side-load wear on the barrel seals.
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 BSE100X175 FAQ
The spring-applied collet instantly clamps the rod, providing a 5500 N bidirectional static hold. The lock is fail-safe, meaning no live air is required to maintain the holding force, preventing vertical drift.
The drive force is 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, max 561 kgf drive, and 5500 N static holding force. To release, apply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port, ensure both piston sides are pressure-balanced, and wait at least 0.5 s before moving.
