The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X150S 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 Ø20mm rod and holds up to 2200 N in either direction — no drift. Ø63mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE63X150S is a double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the Ø20mm rod to deliver a 2200N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air required. Operating pressure is capped at 0.15-0.7 MPa.
This fail-safe mechanism prevents drift if air is exhausted or an E-stop trips. Unlocking requires 0.15-0.7 MPa supplied to the dedicated G1/8 release port. The -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for exact position feedback.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X150S 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.

| 0.7 MPa (max) | 2182 N | — |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 223 kgf | |
Drive force is separate from the 2200 N static holding force of the lock. BSE operates up to 0.7 MPa. Size with a safety margin.

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 1500N vertical lifting platform securely in mid-air using the 2200N collet lock if supply air drops, preventing uncontrolled descent.
Maintains 1559N of clamping force on a machining fixture, engaging the fail-safe lock to keep the workpiece fixed during an emergency stop.
Locks a pallet diverter gate rigid in place with no live air, ensuring conveyor flow stays halted and stable during maintenance cycles.
Verify your suspended load stays under the 2200N holding limit. If your load is lighter, the adjacent bore 50 provides 982N push at 0.5MPa and 1400N holding force. For heavier demands, bore 80 offers 2513N push at 0.5MPa and 3600N holding force. Ensure pressures are balanced before unlocking, allowing at least 0.5s for full release. Replacement requires matching the 63mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting style.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet immediately clamps the rod, providing a 2200N bidirectional static holding force to prevent load drift. The lock is not a dynamic brake; the rod must be fully stopped before engagement.
Drive forces are 1559N push at 0.5MPa, 1402N pull at 0.5MPa, 2182N push at 0.7MPa, and 222kgf max drive. The static fail-safe holding force of the rod lock is 2200N.
