The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X200 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, 200mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED32X200 is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, providing equal force in both directions—about 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The integrated collet lock delivers a 600 N static holding force to prevent drift.
This fail-safe lock engages automatically with no live air, making it ideal for securing vertical or suspended loads during pressure loss or E-stop. It features a 27 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends and a separate G1/8 release port. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so CMSE/DMSE position sensors cannot be used.
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 BSED32X200 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 M10×1.25 both ends. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 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.

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.
Holds 600 N vertical jigs securely in place during air loss, while the 483 N both-way drive ensures precise up and down positioning.
Rear rod end mounts a flag for position confirmation; the double-rod resists rotation while moving light 32 mm payloads.
Clamps the rod statically at any point for workpiece processing, avoiding the need to mechanically lock the tooling.
Select this 32 mm bore when you need symmetric both-way force and a fail-safe hold up to 600 N. If your load requires less holding force, there is no smaller BSED bore. If you need more drive or hold, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 528 N drive force at 0.5 MPa and 900 N holding force. Always verify the load to hold is under 600 N.
Engage the lock only after the rod stops moving, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s for the transition. The operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa. For replacements, match the 200 mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder port, and Basic/LB/FA/TC mounting choice.
Quick checklist
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 345 N at 0.5 MPa and 483 N at 0.7 MPa (max 49 kgf). The static fail-safe holding force of the spring-applied lock is 600 N.
Apply pressure to the separate G1/8 release port only after both cylinder piston sides are pressure-balanced. Allow at least 0.5 seconds for the collet to release before moving the rod.
