Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X200
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X200 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, 200mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X200
The AirTAC BSE100X200 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It provides a robust 5500 N bidirectional static holding force. If air pressure is lost, exhausted, or an E-stop trips, the clamping collet engages instantly to secure the load in its exact stopped position.
Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock is released via a separate G1/8 port. Because it uses the standard SE extruded aluminum barrel, all SE mounting accessories fit this model perfectly except FTC. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it does not support CMSE or DMSE position sensors.
Rod Lock — 5500 N Static Holding (Ø100mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X200 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 BSE100X200 Is Used
Heavy Vertical Lifting
Holds a 5500 N vertical machining center pallet or gantry load securely in place during an unexpected compressed air loss.
Overhead Tool Clamp
Prevents a heavy stamping or welding fixture from dropping onto the workpiece or operators when the main air supply is exhausted.
Pallet Stop Gate
Maintains a rigid 100 mm bore stop position on a heavy-duty assembly conveyor during emergency stops without drifting.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X200 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load requires a holding force at or below the 5500 N capacity. If you need less clamping force, the neighboring 80 mm bore offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. If you need more drive and hold, the 125 mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa and an 8600 N hold.
Always engage the lock only after the rod has completely stopped, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s for full release before commanding motion. To replace this unit, match the 100 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, and your specific mounting choice.
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 BSE100X200 FAQ
It features a spring-applied collet that fails safe. On air loss or E-stop, it locks the rod in both directions with a 5500 N static holding force, requiring no live air to maintain the clamp.
The drive force is separate from the holding force. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 3927 N and pulls with 3681 N. At the 0.7 MPa ceiling, it pushes 5497 N, yielding a max drive of 561 kgf.
