About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X200
The AirTAC BSED100X200 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, delivering equal force in both directions—3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod provides a convenient mounting point for tooling or flags while actively resisting rotation.
If air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the mechanical collet clamps the 25 mm rod to provide a 5500 N static fail-safe hold. This lock requires no live air to maintain position. Remember that it is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops and release it only when 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 BSED100X200 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 BSED100X200 Is Used
Overhead Lift Stations
Holds heavy vertical lifting platforms securely in place during air loss, providing a 5500 N static hold while the double-rod delivers 5153 N of balanced lifting and lowering force.
Multi-Station Machining
Indexes heavy machining fixtures with equal 3681 N force in both directions, using the fail-safe collet to lock the 25 mm rod precisely during workpiece clamping.
Pallet Diverters
Controls heavy pallet routing arms where the rear rod resists rotation, engaging the 5500 N static lock to freeze the diverter arm safely when the line halts.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X200 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100 mm bore double-rod cylinder when your application requires both-way symmetric drive force and mid-stroke fail-safe positioning. Verify your load does not exceed the 5500 N holding force. If you need less force, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N of drive force at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold; if you need more, the 125 mm bore offers 5734 N at 0.5 MPa and an 8600 N hold.
This SKU has no -S suffix, meaning it lacks a magnet and cannot support CMSE or DMSE position sensors. When ordering a replacement, confirm your 200 mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, and mounting choice (Basic, LB, FA, or TC). Although this stroke is under 300 mm, always ensure adequate guide support to prevent side loads from damaging the rod seal or lock collet.
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 BSED100X200 FAQ
The integrated spring-applied collet immediately clamps the rod, delivering a 5500 N static holding force to keep the load in place. It is a fail-safe lock, not a dynamic brake, so it must only be engaged after the rod has completely stopped moving.
The double-rod design provides equal force both ways: 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa (max 525 kgf). This drive force is separate from the 5500 N static holding force of the rod lock, which operates via a dedicated G1/8 release port.
