Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175 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, 175mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175
The AirTAC BSE63X175 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers a 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa, while the internal collet lock provides a robust 2200 N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
This fail-safe mechanism engages automatically if air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, locking the Ø20 mm rod firmly in place. Unlocking requires 0.15-0.7 MPa supplied to the dedicated G1/8 release port, and you must wait at least 0.5 s after balancing piston pressures before moving. This unit lacks a magnet, so position sensing is unavailable on this SKU.
Rod Lock — 2200 N Static Holding (Ø63mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175 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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1402 N |
| 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.

Where the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175 Is Used
Vertical Pallet Lifters
Holds a 2200 N vertical load safely in place during air exhaustion or E-stop, preventing pallet drops in packaging lines.
Machine Tool Clamps
Secures 1559 N workholding clamps against vibration and air loss, ensuring the 63 mm cylinder maintains exact position.
Pallet Stop Gates
Locks conveyor stop gates instantly with a fail-safe collet, handling 222 kgf drive force without drifting.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X175 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 63 mm bore model if your suspended load requires up to 2200 N of static holding force and 1559 N of drive push at 0.5 MPa. If your load needs less holding capacity, the 50 mm bore offers 982 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 1400 N hold. For heavier requirements, the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. Always verify the actual load stays strictly below the 2200 N limit.
Remember the lock is a static hold, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod completely stops. For this 175 mm stroke, standard SE mounting accessories fit perfectly, except FTC. Ensure side-load guides are properly aligned to prevent binding, and specify PT3/8 cylinder ports plus the G1/8 release port.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 2200 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 BSE63X175 FAQ
The drive force is 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa (max 222 kgf drive). The static holding force of the spring-applied lock is 2200 N, which is entirely separate from the drive force.
The lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost, the collet immediately clamps the rod, providing 2200 N of bidirectional holding force. To release, supply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 port, balance piston pressures, and wait 0.5 s before moving.
