The AirTAC BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X150 combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø12mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 600 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø32mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED32X150 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 in both directions—about 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The integrated collet lock provides a bidirectional static holding force of 600 N, ensuring the load is safely maintained if air pressure is lost.
This unit features a 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, and a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 thread. It uses a PT1/8 cylinder port and a separate G1/8 lock-release port. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it does not support position sensors. The lock 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.
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 BSED32X150 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 | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 484 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 49 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 600 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Holds vertical loads up to 600 N securely in place during an E-stop or pressure drop, while providing 345 N of equal lifting and lowering force at 0.5 MPa.
Uses the rear rod for anti-rotation mounting or a cam flag, ensuring precise bidirectional pallet positioning with matching 345 N force each way.
Moves a clamp in and out with equal 483 N force at 0.7 MPa, locking the 600 N static position instantly when the cylinder stops to prevent drift.
Select this 32 mm bore model when your application requires symmetric push-pull force and a fail-safe hold up to 600 N. If you need less drive force, there is no smaller BSED bore. If you need more force and holding capacity, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 528 N at 0.5 MPa and a 900 N holding force. Always verify your load to hold is under 600 N. For this 150 mm stroke, ensure external guides support side loads to prevent rod binding. When replacing, match the 32 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, PT port thread, and basic mounting setup.
Quick checklist
If air is lost or an E-stop trips, the spring-applied collet immediately clamps the rod, providing a bidirectional static holding force of 600 N with no live air. It is a static holding lock, not a dynamic brake, so it must engage only after the rod stops. For overhead or man-rated loads, use separate safety-rated controls.
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 345 N at 0.5 MPa, 483 N at 0.7 MPa, with a max drive of 49 kgf. The fail-safe rod lock provides a separate static holding force of 600 N. The lock releases via a G1/8 port when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, requiring at least 0.5 s.
