Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X100
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X100 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 Ø12mm rod and holds up to 600 N in either direction — no drift. Ø32mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X100
The AirTAC BSE32X100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers a 600 N bidirectional static holding force with no live air, running at a 0.15-0.7 MPa operating pressure ceiling.
The lock uses a clamping collet engaged by spring force, released via a separate G1/8 port. This SKU has no magnet, meaning CMSE or DMSE position sensors cannot be used. SE mounting accessories fit this body, except for FTC.
Rod Lock — 600 N Static Holding (Ø32mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X100 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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 563 N | — |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 57 kgf | |
Drive force is separate from the 600 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 BSE32X100 Is Used
Small Vertical Lifts
Holds 600 N static loads on small vertical actuators if air pressure drops, preventing sudden descent of light platens.
Tooling Clamp
Maintains clamping force on machined parts during an E-stop, keeping the workpiece secure with no live air required.
Gate Stop
Locks a conveyor diverter gate in the exact stopped position, resisting bidirectional vibration until the G1/8 release port is pressurized.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X100 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your load stays under the 600 N holding force. If you need less force, no smaller BSE bore exists. If you need more, step up to bore 40, which gives 628 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 900 N hold. Engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and allow at least 0.5 s for release after balancing piston pressures. This 100 mm stroke is short, so side-load guides are less critical here. Match the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and basic mounting for replacements.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 600 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 BSE32X100 FAQ
The drive force is 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 563 N push at 0.7 MPa (max 57 kgf). The separate static holding force of the rod lock is 600 N.
It is fail-safe: a spring applies a clamping collet to hold the rod bidirectionally at 600 N. To release, supply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 port after balancing piston pressures, allowing 0.5 s before moving.
