Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X300S
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X300S 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, 300mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X300S
The AirTAC BSE32X300S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It provides a robust 600 N bidirectional static holding force, ensuring suspended loads stay fixed the moment air is lost or an E-stop is triggered.
Operating pressure is capped at 0.15-0.7 MPa, and the lock is managed via a dedicated G1/8 release port. Because it uses the standard SE body, all SE mounting accessories fit perfectly except FTC. The -S magnet option allows precise position sensing with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.
Rod Lock — 600 N Static Holding (Ø32mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X300S 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 BSE32X300S Is Used
Vertical Pallet Lift
Holds a 60 kg pallet rack securely at 300 mm extension with 600 N fail-safe force, preventing sudden drops if the supply air exhausts during an E-stop.
Drill Head Index
Locks a light drilling spindle at the exact 300 mm machining position using the collet, resisting vibration without needing continuous live air pressure.
Pallet Stop Gate
Acts as a rigid fail-safe stop gate for incoming conveyor pallets; the spring-applied collet ensures the barrier stays firmly extended even during a full plant air loss.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X300S the Right Cylinder?
Verify your load requires 600 N or less of holding force; if suspended mass exceeds this, step up to the 40 mm bore (which yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa and 900 N holding force). For lighter duty, no smaller BSE bore exists. Engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and release it solely when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving.
At 300 mm stroke, leverage the adjustable air cushions (27 mm length) to minimize end-of-stroke impact, and ensure external guide rails support side loads to prevent binding. Direct drop-in replacement requires matching the 32 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and -S magnet.
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 BSE32X300S FAQ
The integrated rod lock is spring-applied and air-released, meaning a loss of supply air instantly engages the collet. It provides a 600 N bidirectional static holding force, locking the rod safely at its current position without needing live air.
The drive force is 402 N push and 345 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa (max drive 57 kgf). This is separate from the rod lock, which provides a 600 N static holding force when correctly engaged.
