The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED100X800S 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, 800mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED100X800S 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 drive force of 3681 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa. The integrated collet lock provides a bidirectional static holding force of 5500 N, maintaining position safely if air pressure is lost.
This 100 mm bore unit features a PT1/2 cylinder port, a separate G1/8 lock-release port, and a 25 mm rod with an M20x1.5 thread. The extruded aluminum barrel omits external tie rods while retaining the ISO 15552 mounting interface. Equipped with a magnet (-S), it supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, and includes adjustable air cushions at both ends.
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 BSED100X800S 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.

| 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.

Uses the equal 5153 N both-way force to push and retract heavy coil stock, while the 5500 N lock holds the carriage firmly during press cycling.
Lifts and lowers 500 kg platens with symmetric force, relying on the fail-safe collet to prevent gravity drops if air supply drops.
Counterweights large industrial doors across the 800 mm span, engaging the lock to hold the door open without consuming live air.
Select this 100 mm bore model when an application requires symmetric push/pull force and fail-safe holding up to 5500 N. If your load exceeds this holding force, step up to the 125 mm bore (8028 N drive at 0.7 MPa, 8600 N hold). If you need less force, step down to the 80 mm bore (3175 N drive at 0.7 MPa, 3600 N hold). Always confirm the actual load is below the 5500 N limit.
The lock is not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops, release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, and allow at least 0.5 seconds for the transition. For this 800 mm stroke, use external guide rails to prevent side-load binding. When replacing, match the 100 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT1/2 port, basic mounting, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
The equal both-way drive force is 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and 5153 N at 0.7 MPa (max 525 kgf). The separate static holding force of the spring-applied rod lock is 5500 N.
If air is lost, the spring-applied collet clamps the rod, holding the load up to 5500 N. To release, apply pressure to the G1/8 release port only after the piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds for the unlock action.
