The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X600 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, 600mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE32X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the Ø12 mm rod to provide a 600 N bidirectional static holding force with no live air required. This fail-safe mechanism prevents drifting when air is lost or an E-stop is engaged.
Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock uses a separate G1/8 release port. Because this 600 mm stroke lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot mount CMSE or DMSE position sensors. The standard ISO 15552 interface means SE mounting accessories fit perfectly, except FTC.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X600 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 600 N vertical load in place on a 32 mm bore lift station if air pressure drops, preventing sudden drops.
Locks a conveyor diverter arm rigidly mid-cycle during an E-stop, withstanding 600 N of impact without drifting.
Secures a small machining fixture in position during an air loss event, ensuring 600 N of fail-safe holding.
Verify your suspended load is below the 600 N holding force. If you need less holding capacity, the next bore down is unavailable, but stepping up to a 40 mm bore raises the holding force to 900 N and the 0.5 MPa push to 628 N. If you need more drive force, stepping up to a 40 mm bore increases the 0.5 MPa push to 628 N and the holding force to 900 N.
At 600 mm stroke, prevent side-load damage by guiding the load externally. Engage the lock only after the rod stops, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving. Replacement requires matching the 32 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and basic mounting.
Quick checklist
The 32 mm bore provides a push force of 402 N and a pull force of 345 N at 0.5 MPa. At the 0.7 MPa ceiling, push is 563 N (max drive 57 kgf). The integrated rod lock provides a separate 600 N bidirectional static holding force with no live air.
The lock is spring-applied and air-released via a separate G1/8 port. You must engage it only after the rod stops, and release it only when pressures on both sides of the piston are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s for full release before moving.
