Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X600
The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X600 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, 600mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.

About the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X600
The AirTAC BSE63X600 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It provides a robust 2200 N bidirectional static holding force, ensuring your load remains exactly where it stopped if air pressure is lost or exhausted. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the cylinder runs at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Unlike a plain SE actuator, this unit uses a separate G1/8 release port to unlock the clamping collet. The lock engages automatically via spring force without live air, while the adjustable air cushions at both ends manage end-of-stroke impact. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it does not support position sensing.
Rod Lock — 2200 N Static Holding (Ø63mm)
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X600 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.

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 BSE63X600 Is Used
Vertical Palletizer Arm
Secures a 200 kg lifted pallet arm mid-travel, using the 2200 N holding force to prevent back-driving if the main air supply suddenly drops.
Overhead Conveyor Stop
Acts as a rigid stop gate that stays firmly clamped in place during an E-stop event, holding against accumulating product force without drifting.
Injection Mold Tooling
Holds a heavy mold core stationary during air loss, ensuring the 1559 N drive force positions the tool accurately before the fail-safe collet locks it.
Is the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X600 the Right Cylinder?
Verify your suspended load requires 2200 N or less of holding force. If you need less drive and hold, the 50 mm bore offers 982 N push at 0.5 MPa and 1400 N hold; stepping up to the 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N hold. Always 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.
At 600 mm of stroke, the extended lever arm amplifies side loads. Use external guide rails to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. When replacing, match the 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, and mounting style. SE mounting accessories fit perfectly except for FTC.
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 BSE63X600 FAQ
The spring-applied collet instantly clamps the rod, providing a 2200 N bidirectional static hold. It is a fail-safe lock, not a dynamic brake, so it only engages after the rod has stopped.
Drive forces at 0.5 MPa are 1559 N push and 1402 N pull; at 0.7 MPa, push is 2182 N (max 222 kgf). The separate static holding force of the rod lock is 2200 N.
