Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X175
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X175 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, 175mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X175
The AirTAC BSE32X175 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the 12 mm rod to provide a bidirectional static holding force of 600 N. If air pressure drops, the lock engages automatically to prevent drift.
Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock uses a separate G1/8 release port. The cylinder itself runs on a PT1/8 port with 27 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so position sensing is not available.
Rod Lock — 600 N Static Holding (Ø32mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X175 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 (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 BSE32X175 Is Used
Vertical Pneumatic Lifts
Secures small vertical lifting stages holding up to 600 N, preventing gravity-driven drops when shop air is exhausted.
Tooling Clamp Hold
Maintains clamping force on machined parts during an E-stop, ensuring the 402 N drive force does not cause unintended workpiece movement.
Pallet Stop Gate
Holds a raised conveyor stop gate firmly in place during power loss, resisting dynamic impacts up to the 600 N static limit.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X175 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load requires 600 N or less of holding force. If you need less drive force, the adjacent smaller bore is unavailable, but stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa and 900 N of holding force. Always engage the collet lock only after the 175 mm stroke is fully stopped, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds before moving. For a drop-in replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT thread, and mounting choice. Given the 175 mm stroke, ensure adequate side-load support using ISO 15552 compatible guides.
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 BSE32X175 FAQ
The integrated rod lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. Upon air loss, the collet instantly clamps the rod, providing a 600 N bidirectional static hold to prevent load drift. It is not a dynamic brake, so engage it only after the rod stops.
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 345 N. At the maximum 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the push force is 563 N, yielding a maximum drive of 57 kgf. This drive force is separate from the 600 N static holding force of the lock.
