The AirTAC BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X25 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, 25mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED32X25 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 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa, making it ideal for symmetrical pushing and pulling. The rear rod can mount a flag or cam while resisting rotation.
This unit provides a bidirectional fail-safe static holding force of 600 N with no live air required. If pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the collet clamps the 12 mm rod to hold position. It features a 27 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends and a dedicated G1/8 release port. Note: this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it does not support CMSE or DMSE position 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 BSED32X25 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.

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.

Uses the equal 345 N both-way force to divert light packages on a belt, while the 600 N rod lock holds the gate rigidly in place during air loss to prevent jams.
Leverages the anti-rotation double-rod design for a stable 25 mm grip, engaging the fail-safe collet to secure the workpiece if shop air pressure suddenly drops.
Employs the twin rods to push and pull a stopper blade with identical 483 N peak force, locking the 12 mm rod via the G1/8 release port to freeze the gate during E-stops.
Select this 32 mm bore when an application requires both symmetrical motion and fail-safe holding up to 600 N. Verify your load does not exceed the 600 N static holding capacity. If you need less drive force, no smaller BSED bore exists; if you need more, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 528 N at 0.5 MPa and a 900 N hold.
Engage the lock only after the 25 mm stroke completes, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds. For replacements, match the 32 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, PT1/8 cylinder port, and basic mounting style. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is minimal, but standard guide rules still apply.
Quick checklist
The double-rod design provides equal drive force in both directions: 345 N at 0.5 MPa and 483 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum drive force of 49 kgf. Separately, the spring-applied rod lock provides a static holding force of 600 N with no live air.
The lock is a spring-applied, air-released collet, not a dynamic brake. You must engage it only after the rod stops moving. To release safely, ensure both piston sides are pressure-balanced, apply air to the G1/8 release port, and wait at least 0.5 seconds before commanding motion.
