The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED125X75S 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, 75mm stroke, PT1/2 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED125X75S 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—specifically 5734 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 8028 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod is ideal for mounting cams or flags and naturally resists rotation.
This fail-safe collet lock provides a massive 8600 N static holding force with no live air required. If air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the rod is securely clamped at position. The lock engages only after the rod stops and releases via a dedicated G1/8 port when piston sides are pressure-balanced, requiring at least 0.5 seconds. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSE reed or 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 BSED125X75S 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.

Clamps large castings with 8028 N of equal both-way force while the 8600 N rod lock holds the heavy workpiece securely during machining cycles with zero air consumption.
Raises and lowers heavy platens symmetrically; the fail-safe collet locks instantly on air loss to prevent gravity-driven drops up to 8600 N, protecting operators and tooling.
Ejects heavy parts using equal push and pull force via both extending rods, engaging the 8600 N static lock to hold the ejection arm rigidly during press reloading.
Select this 125 mm bore cylinder when your application demands both-way symmetric thrust up to 819 kgf and heavy fail-safe holding up to 8600 N. If your load requires less force, stepping down to the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N holding capacity. As the largest standard size, there is no larger neighbour, so exceeding 8600 N requires a custom solution. Always verify your load is strictly within the 8600 N static limit and use safety-rated controls for man-rated or overhead loads.
For exact replacement matching, confirm the 75 mm stroke, PT1/2 cylinder port, M27x2 rod thread, and your preferred mounting from the reduced set (Basic, LB, FA, TC). Because the lock is a static clamp, not a dynamic brake, ensure the rod has fully stopped before engaging it. At 75 mm stroke, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide the tooling to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 5734 N at 0.5 MPa and 8028 N at 0.7 MPa (max 819 kgf). The integrated spring-applied rod lock provides a separate bidirectional static holding force of 8600 N with no live air.
The lock is a static clamp, not a dynamic brake. Engage it only after the rod stops moving. To release, apply air to the dedicated G1/8 release port only after both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds for the collet to open.
