Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150S
The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150S combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø25mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 5500 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø100mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, G1/8 lock-release.

About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150S
The AirTAC BSED100X150S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, providing equal drive force of 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa. This symmetric design is ideal for carrying rear-rod tooling or flags while resisting rotation.
The fail-safe collet lock delivers a 5500 N static holding force with no live air required. If pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the rod is securely clamped at position. Note that this is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds.
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 BSED100X150S 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 BSED100X150S Is Used
Vertical Lift Platforms
Lifts heavy vertical platens using 5153 N of equal both-way force, engaging the 5500 N fail-safe collet lock to prevent drops during air loss.
Dual-Tool Machining
Mounts a secondary tool on the rear rod for synchronized operations, utilizing the anti-rotation properties of the double-rod design.
Heavy Pallet Stopping
Halts massive pallets on a conveyor, absorbing impact with adjustable air cushions before the spring-applied lock clamps the load.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X150S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore model when your application requires both symmetric thrust and robust vertical holding. Verify your load does not exceed the 5500 N static holding force. If you need less force, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N drive force at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. If you need more, step up to the 125 mm bore for 5734 N drive force and an 8600 N hold.
The operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock-release port is G1/8. This configuration includes the -S magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, a PT1/2 cylinder port, and a 25 mm rod with an M20x1.5 thread. For safety-rated or man-rated overhead loads, always use appropriate external safety controls.
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 BSED100X150S FAQ
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa, equating to a maximum drive of 525 kgf. The integrated fail-safe rod lock provides a separate static holding force of 5500 N.
The spring-applied collet clamps the rod immediately, holding the load up to 5500 N without live air. To release the lock safely, ensure both piston sides are pressure-balanced and apply air to the G1/8 release port for at least 0.5 seconds.
