About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150
The AirTAC BSED100X150 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, providing equal force in both directions—delivering 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod is ideal for mounting cams or flags and naturally resists rotation.
This unit features a bidirectional fail-safe collet that clamps the rod with a 5500 N static holding force whenever air is lost or an E-stop is engaged. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it does not support CMSE or DMSE position sensors. The lock mechanism engages only after the rod stops and requires a dedicated G1/8 release port to overcome the spring pressure.
Double Rod + 5500 N Rod Lock (Ø100mm)
A rod exits both ends for symmetric force and back-rod tooling, and a spring clamps the collet so the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150 holds its position in both directions on air loss or E-stop. Apply 0.15–0.7 MPa to the G1/8 release port to unlock. Engage only after the rod has stopped (not a dynamic brake), and release only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced; allow ≥0.5 s for full release.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC BSED datasheet. Rod thread M20×1.5 both ends. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 5154 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 526 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 5500 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150 Is Used
Overhead Lift Stations
Holds a 5000 N vertical load securely in place during air loss events using the 5500 N fail-safe collet, while the double-rod design provides 5153 N of equal lifting and lowering force.
Multi-Position Machining
Indexes heavy workpieces with 525 kgf of symmetric thrust, using the rear rod for anti-rotation stability and the spring-applied lock to prevent drift during cutting operations.
Pallet Stops & Diverters
Actuates a stopping jaw in both directions with equal speed, engaging the 5500 N static hold to freeze heavy pallets instantly when the air supply is cut or E-stop is hit.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore when your application requires symmetric thrust up to 525 kgf alongside a robust 5500 N static hold. If your load is lighter, stepping down to the 80 mm bore offers 2268 N of drive force at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N holding capacity. For heavier demands, the 125 mm bore provides 5734 N at 0.5 MPa and an 8600 N hold. Always verify your load stays under the 5500 N limit and remember the lock is not a dynamic brake.
To release the clamp safely, both piston sides must be pressure-balanced, and you must allow at least 0.5 seconds before moving. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa. When ordering a replacement, match the 150 mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and your preferred mounting style from the available Basic, LB, FA, or TC options.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need both symmetric force AND fail-safe hold?
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 5500 N?
- ✓ Back-rod space for tooling/flag
- ✓ Lock engaged only when stopped
- ✓ G1/8 release-air line available
Installation & Safety Notes
- check Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped — not 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 Support both rod ends; avoid side load.
- check Use BSED mounting (Basic/LB/FA/TC).
Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150 FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal drive force in both directions: 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa (max 525 kgf). The integrated spring-applied rod lock provides a separate bidirectional static holding force of 5500 N with no live air required.
The lock is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake. You must engage it only after the rod stops completely. To release safely, ensure both piston sides are pressure-balanced via the PT1/2 ports, apply air to the dedicated G1/8 release port, and wait at least 0.5 seconds before commanding cylinder motion.
