About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X300
The AirTAC BSED32X300 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 force and speed in both directions. It provides 345 N of drive force each way at 0.5 MPa and 483 N at 0.7 MPa. The fail-safe collet lock delivers 600 N of static holding force, keeping the rod firmly clamped if air pressure drops.
This unit features an extruded aluminum barrel without external tie rods and uses a separate G1/8 lock-release port. The bidirectional lock engages only after the rod stops and releases when both piston sides are pressure-balanced. This SKU has no magnet, so it does not support CMSE or DMSE position sensors.
Double Rod + 600 N Rod Lock (Ø32mm)
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 BSED32X300 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X300 Is Used
Overhead Lift Stop
Holds a 50 kg vertical pick-and-place arm mid-stroke with 600 N of fail-safe force if air drops, while the rear rod mounts a stroke flag.
Symmetric Shuttle
Drives a light transfer carriage with equal 345 N push and pull force at 0.5 MPa, locking securely during dwell periods.
Mid-Stroke Machining
Clamps a small fixture at a precise 300 mm extension, using the lock to resist cutting vibration without needing live air.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X300 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when you need symmetric both-way force and a 600 N fail-safe hold over a 300 mm stroke. If your load requires less holding force, the BSED series does not offer a smaller bore. If you need more force, the 40 mm bore provides 528 N at 0.5 MPa drive force and 900 N of holding force. For even heavier loads, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N drive and 1400 N holding force. Always verify your load stays under the 600 N static limit.
Because the 300 mm stroke is long, use a guide rail to prevent side-load sagging on the rod. Engage the lock only after the rod stops, and release it only when both sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds. The cylinder port is PT1/8, and the lock-release port is G1/8. To replace this unit, match the 32 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, Basic/LB/FA/TC mounting, and PT thread.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need both symmetric force AND fail-safe hold?
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 600 N?
- ✓ Back-rod space for tooling/flag
- ✓ Lock engaged only when stopped
- ✓ G1/8 release-air line available
Installation & Safety Notes
- check Engage the lock only after the rod has stopped — not a dynamic brake.
- check Release only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced.
- check Allow ≥0.5 s for full release before commanding motion.
- check Feed the G1/8 release port with 0.15–0.7 MPa clean air.
- check Support both rod ends; avoid side load.
- check Use BSED mounting (Basic/LB/FA/TC).
Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X300 FAQ
The integrated spring-applied collet immediately clamps the rod, providing 600 N of static holding force to keep the load in position. It is a fail-safe hold, not a dynamic brake, so it must only engage after the rod stops.
The double-rod design provides equal drive force both ways: 345 N at 0.5 MPa and 483 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum drive force of 49 kgf. The static holding force of the lock is 600 N.
