The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED125X200S combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø32mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 8600 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø125mm bore, 200mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED125X200S is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, delivering equal drive force of 5734 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 8028 N at 0.7 MPa. The integrated collet lock provides a bidirectional static holding force of 8600 N with no live air required.
This fail-safe lock engages automatically if air pressure drops, securely holding the load in place. It is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake, so engage it only after the rod stops and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced. The extruded aluminum barrel has no external tie rods, and the -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
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 BSED125X200S 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 | 5734 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 8027 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 819 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 8600 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Thread: PT (blank) / G. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Related: SED (double rod, no lock), BSE (single-rod rod lock). Sensors CMSE/DMSE fit magnetic BSED.
Clamps heavy cast iron engine blocks during CNC milling. The 8600N fail-safe lock prevents the 8028N both-way drive from shifting if compressed air drops.
Raises and lowers loaded pallets with equal push and pull force. The spring-applied collet locks the 32mm rod instantly on E-stop to prevent falling loads.
Halts large automotive transfer pallets. The double-rod design mounts rear flags for position sensing while the lock holds 819 kgf against momentum.
Select this 125mm bore model when your application requires symmetric both-way force and a robust fail-safe hold up to 8600 N. If your load is lighter, the 100mm bore version offers 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N holding force. If you need maximum push and pull capacity, this 125mm bore provides 8028 N at 0.7 MPa and 819 kgf max drive. Always verify your load is under the 8600 N holding limit.
For safe operation, allow at least 0.5 seconds for the lock to release after balancing piston pressures. The cylinder port is PT1/2, the lock-release port is G1/8, and the operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa. When ordering a replacement, match the 200mm stroke, PT thread, and -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
If air is lost or an E-stop trips, the spring-applied collet clamps the 32mm rod, providing a bidirectional static holding force of 8600 N with no live air. It is a static lock, not a dynamic brake, so engage it only after the rod stops.
The drive force is equal both ways: 5734 N at 0.5 MPa and 8028 N at 0.7 MPa, with a max drive of 819 kgf. The static holding force of the rod lock is 8600 N. Operating pressure is 0.15-0.7 MPa.
