The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE80X100S 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 Ø25mm rod and holds up to 3600 N in either direction — no drift. Ø80mm bore, 100mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE80X100S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A collet clamps the Ø25 mm piston rod automatically, delivering a 3600 N bidirectional static holding force with zero live air. Operating pressure is capped at 0.15-0.7 MPa, and the lock unlocks via a separate G1/8 port.
This fail-safe mechanism prevents drift in vertical or suspended loads during E-stops or pressure drops. The lock is a holding device, not a dynamic brake: engage it only after the rod fully stops, and allow at least 0.5 s for release after balancing piston pressures. The -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE80X100S 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 350 kg vertical lift arm mid-stroke during an E-stop, using the 3600 N fail-safe collet to prevent a dropped load.
Secures a mold platen safely in place when system air is exhausted, relying on the spring-applied lock rather than live pressure.
Locks a heavy diverter gate in the exact extended position using the 3518 N drive force, then holds it securely during air loss.
Verify your load requires less than the 3600 N holding force and the 3518 N push force at 0.7 MPa. If sizing neighbors, the 63 mm bore offers 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa and 2200 N hold, while the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa and 5500 N hold. Always engage the lock only after the rod stops, releasing solely when pressures are balanced.
For this 100 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but always guide the load to prevent rod damage. To match this replacement exactly, specify the 80 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, -S magnet, and your required SE-compatible mounting (excluding FTC).
Quick checklist
The drive force is 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa (max 359 kgf drive). The separate static holding force of the rod lock is 3600 N.
The lock is spring-applied and fail-safe. If air is lost, the collet immediately clamps the rod bidirectionally up to 3600 N. To move again, supply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port, balance piston pressures, and wait >=0.5 s before moving.
