The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X800S 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, 800mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE32X800S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the 12 mm rod automatically, delivering a 600 N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air required. If air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the rod is safely held in place at its stopped position.
The lock releases via a separate G1/8 port at 0.15-0.7 MPa, while the main cylinder operates up to 0.7 MPa. Because this is a made-to-order 800 mm stroke—exceeding the 700 mm standard—you must account for side loads. The -S magnet option supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for position detection.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE32X800S 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 60 kg vertical lift stage securely mid-stroke with 600 N of fail-safe force, preventing gravity drops if the 0.7 MPa air supply is lost.
Locks a 12 mm rod instantly during an E-stop on a packaging conveyor line, ensuring the stop gate stays firmly planted without drifting.
Maintains a clamping fixture position on a light CNC router during an air pressure drop, keeping the workpiece secured until pressure is restored.
Verify your suspended load requires 600 N or less of holding force. If you need more, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 628 N push at 0.5 MPa and 900 N of holding force. Stepping down is not an option as 32 mm is the smallest available.
The 800 mm stroke is non-standard and made-to-order; always use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage on the 12 mm rod. Remember the safety operating rule: engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving. When replacing, match the 32 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT1/8 port, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet engages automatically, providing a 600 N bidirectional static hold with no live air. It is a fail-safe lock, not a dynamic brake—engage it only after the rod stops.
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and pull is 345 N. At the 0.7 MPa ceiling, push is 563 N, yielding a max drive of 57 kgf. The 600 N static holding force is separate from these drive numbers.
