Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X600
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X600 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 Ø16mm rod and holds up to 900 N in either direction — no drift. Ø40mm bore, 600mm stroke, PT1/4 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X600
The AirTAC BSE40X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 40mm bore and 600mm stroke. It integrates a spring-applied, air-released rod lock that provides a 900N bidirectional static holding force. If air is lost or an E-stop trips, the collet clamps the 16mm rod to hold the load safely in place. Operating pressure is capped at 0.15-0.7 MPa.
The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port; the adjustable air cushions at both ends are for end-of-stroke deceleration, not holding. Because this 600mm stroke exceeds 300mm, use a guide to prevent side-load damage. This SKU has no magnet (-S), so CMSE or DMSE position sensors cannot be used.
Rod Lock — 900 N Static Holding (Ø40mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X600 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.

| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Adjustable, 30 mm |
| Max stroke | Up to 800 mm |
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 (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 880 N | — |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 90 kgf | |
Drive force is separate from the 900 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 BSE40X600 Is Used
Vertical Lift Hold
Holds a 900N vertical lift carriage in place during air loss, preventing drift on a 600mm travel axis.
Tool Clamp
Keeps a 628N drive tooling clamp locked on the part if the E-stop is hit mid-cycle.
Pallet Stop
Maintains a rigid 600mm extended pallet stop gate with no live air required to stay shut.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE40X600 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load needs 900N or less of static holding force. If you need less drive and hold, the 32mm bore offers 402N push at 0.5MPa and 600N hold; if you need more, the 50mm bore provides 982N push at 0.5MPa and 1400N hold. Always engage the lock only after the rod fully stops, and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5s before moving. Match the 40mm bore, 600mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and mounting when replacing.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 900 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 BSE40X600 FAQ
The spring-applied collet clamps the rod, providing a 900N bidirectional static hold with no live air. It is not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops.
Drive forces are 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 879N push at 0.7MPa (max 90kgf). The separate static holding force is 900N.
