The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X225S 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, 225mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE100X225S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It features a 100mm bore, 225mm stroke, and a magnetic piston for position sensing. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the drive generates 5497 N of push force at that ceiling.
The lock uses a mechanical collet to deliver a 5500 N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air. If air is exhausted or an E-stop trips, the rod is held safely in place. The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port, and because it shares the SE body, all SE mounting accessories fit perfectly except FTC.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X225S 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 a 500kg vertical elevator carriage securely mid-stroke with 5500 N of fail-safe force, preventing pallet drops during a sudden air loss or E-stop event.
Locks a large machining fixture in place against vibration, using the 5497 N push force to seat the part while the collet secures the rod without bleeding continuous air.
Acts as a hard stop for heavy assembly line pallets, using the spring-applied collet to ensure the barrier stays rigid even if the plant air supply drops to zero.
Verify your suspended load stays below the 5500 N holding limit. If your load is lighter, the 80mm bore offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N holding force. If you need more drive power, the 125mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa and 8600 N holding force.
Engage the lock only after the rod completely stops, and release it only when pressures on both sides of the piston are balanced. Always allow at least 0.5 seconds for full release before commanding motion. This configuration includes the -S magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, a PT1/2 cylinder port, and an M20x1.5 rod thread.
Quick checklist
The drive forces are 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa, 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum drive of 561 kgf. The separate static holding force of the rod lock is 5500 N.
The lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost, exhausted, or an E-stop trips, the collet immediately clamps the rod in both directions, holding the load up to 5500 N without any live air.
