The AirTAC Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE80X300S 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, 300mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder ports, G1/8 lock-release port.
The AirTAC BSE80X300S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers a 3600 N bidirectional static holding force with no live air required, ensuring suspended loads stay fixed during pressure loss or E-stops. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
This model features a 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 thread, and PT3/8 cylinder ports, alongside a dedicated G1/8 lock-release port. The -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for exact position tracking. Engage the collet only after the rod fully stops, and allow at least 0.5 s for release after balancing piston pressures.
A spring clamps the collet onto the rod, so the Airtac BSE Clamp Standard Cylinder BSE80X300S 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 360 kg suspended crane hook assembly safely in both directions during air loss, preventing drift while moving heavy structural steel.
Locks a machining center tool carousel at the exact change position with 3600 N of force, ensuring no drop or misalignment if air supply fails.
Secures a vertical diverter gate mid-stroke during E-stop events, using the 3518 N drive force to move the 25 mm rod and 3600 N to hold it rigid.
Verify your load stays under the 3600 N static holding capacity. If your application needs less drive force, the 63 mm bore offers 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 2200 N hold. For heavier demands, the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N hold. SE mounting accessories fit this body perfectly except FTC.
With a 300 mm stroke, use guide rails to prevent side-load damage to the 25 mm rod. Remember the lock is a holding device, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after motion stops, and release it only when pressures are balanced.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 2513 N and pull is 2268 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 3518 N (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, providing 3600 N of bidirectional holding force. To release, apply 0.15-0.7 MPa to the G1/8 port after balancing piston pressures, waiting at least 0.5 s.
