The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X25 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, 25mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE63X25 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers a 2200 N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air, ensuring suspended loads remain safely frozen in place if pressure drops or an E-stop activates. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
A separate G1/8 release port supplies 0.15-0.7 MPa to unlock the clamping collet. Because the lock is a fail-safe holding device rather than a dynamic brake, you must engage it only after the rod fully stops and release it only when piston pressures are balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s before moving. This 63 mm bore unit uses a PT3/8 cylinder port, a Ø20 mm rod, and 36 mm adjustable air cushions at both ends. This SKU lacks a magnet, so CMSE or DMSE position sensors cannot be fitted.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X25 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 2200 N raised pallet securely in mid-stroke if shop air vanishes, preventing sudden crashes in packaging lines.
Locks a 1559 N workpiece clamp instantly on air loss, keeping the part fixed during an emergency stop.
Freezes a conveyor stop gate in the up position using the collet, ensuring items halt safely during E-stop events.
Verify your load stays under the 2200 N holding force. If you need less drive and hold, the adjacent 50 mm bore provides 982 N push at 0.5 MPa and 1400 N of hold. If your load exceeds this lock, stepping up to the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N of hold. Always balance pressures and wait >=0.5 s before releasing the lock. When replacing, match the 63 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting choice; standard SE mounting accessories fit perfectly except FTC.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet engages instantly, providing a 2200 N bidirectional static hold with no live air. It is a fail-safe holding device, not a dynamic brake, so engage it only after the rod stops.
At 0.5 MPa, push is 1559 N and pull is 1402 N. At the 0.7 MPa ceiling, push is 2182 N (max 222 kgf drive). The separate static holding force of the lock is 2200 N.
