Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X700S
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X700S 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, 700mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X700S
The AirTAC BSE100X700S 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, ensuring suspended loads stay exactly where they stopped during an E-stop or pressure drop. The operating pressure ceiling is 0.15-0.7 MPa.
This 100mm bore, 700mm stroke unit uses a separate G1/8 release port to unlock the internal collet. The lock is a holding device, not a dynamic brake; you must engage it only after the rod stops and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds before moving. The -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
Rod Lock — 5500 N Static Holding (Ø100mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X700S 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 BSE100X700S Is Used
Palletizer Lift Arm
Holds a lifted pallet arm safely mid-stroke. The 5500 N collet lock prevents a 561 kgf drive load from crashing down if the main air supply drops unexpectedly.
Injection Mold Tooling
Secures heavy mold halves during a machine halt. The fail-safe collet engages instantly on air loss, keeping the 100mm rod clamped until balance is restored.
Heavy Pallet Stop Gate
Maintains a raised stop gate on a high-speed packaging line. The spring-applied lock keeps the gate up during E-stops, blocking 5497 N of push force without live air.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE100X700S the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load is safely under the 5500 N static holding limit. If your load is lighter, stepping down to the 80mm bore offers 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. If you need more drive force, the 125mm bore provides 6136 N push at 0.5 MPa and an 8600 N hold. Always engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and release it only when both sides are pressure-balanced.
For a direct replacement, match the 100mm bore, 700mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, and -S magnet. Because the 700mm stroke is long, use external guides to prevent side-load wear on the seals. SE mounting accessories fit this ISO 15552 body perfectly, except for the FTC variant.
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 BSE100X700S FAQ
The drive force is 3927 N push and 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 5497 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 561 kgf at 0.7 MPa. The separate static holding force of the spring-applied rod lock is 5500 N.
On air loss, the internal spring instantly forces a collet to clamp the rod, providing a 5500 N bidirectional hold. To release it safely, balance pressures on both sides of the piston, supply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port, and wait at least 0.5 seconds before moving.
