The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X80S 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, 80mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE63X80S 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 no live air, ensuring suspended loads remain exactly where they stopped if air pressure drops. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the cylinder port is PT3/8.
This 63 mm bore, 80 mm stroke model includes a -S magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. Unlocking requires 0.15-0.7 MPa supplied to the separate G1/8 release port. The lock is a static collet clamp, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod fully stops and allow at least 0.5 s for release before resuming motion.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE63X80S 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 vertical lift arm in place during an E-stop. The 2200 N collet clamp prevents the 63 mm rod from drifting downward, keeping the pallet stable even with zero air pressure.
Secures a machining fixture. If shop air drops, the spring-applied lock engages instantly, maintaining 2200 N of holding force so the workpiece does not shift under vibration.
Locks a heavy routing gate in the extended position. The fail-safe collet ensures the 1559 N drive force positions the gate, while the lock holds it rigid against impacting packages.
Verify your load requires 2200 N or less of holding force. If you need less drive power, the 50 mm bore offers 982 N push at 0.5 MPa and 1400 N hold. If you need more, step up to the 80 mm bore, which provides 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N hold. The BSE63X80S generates 1559 N push and 1402 N pull at 0.5 MPa.
Always balance pressures on both sides of the piston before releasing the lock. Because this is an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, standard SE mounting accessories fit perfectly, except FTC. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
The integrated rod lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost or exhausted, the collet immediately clamps the piston rod, providing a 2200 N bidirectional static holding force to prevent drift. It is not a dynamic brake; the rod must be stopped before engagement.
Drive force at 0.5 MPa is 1559 N push and 1402 N pull; at 0.7 MPa, push is 2182 N, yielding a max drive of 222 kgf. This is separate from the 2200 N static holding force. To unlock, apply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port and wait at least 0.5 s.
