The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X700S 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, 700mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED32X700S is a double-acting double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. It delivers equal force in both directions, providing 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. A rod exits both ends, allowing the rear rod to carry a flag or cam while resisting rotation.
The fail-safe collet lock provides a 600 N static holding force with no live air required. It engages automatically if air is lost or an E-stop is tripped, holding the load securely in place. The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port, and the cylinder operates within a 0.15-0.7 MPa pressure range.
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 BSED32X700S 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 a 600 N vertical load in place during an air loss event, while the 345 N both-way drive force manages the up and down transitions.
Extends a diverter arm using the rear rod for a cam flag, locking the 700 mm stroke in position to prevent drift when flow is paused.
Maintains exact position on a 32 mm bore pick-and-place head during E-stop, keeping the 483 N max drive force ready for safe release.
Select this 32 mm bore model when an application requires both symmetric drive force and fail-safe holding up to 600 N. If you need less holding force, there is no smaller standard bore. If you need more, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 528 N of drive force at 0.5 MPa and a 900 N holding force. At 700 mm stroke, verify your guide mechanism to prevent side-load damage, as long strokes amplify deflection.
The lock is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake. Engage it only after the rod stops, release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, and allow at least 0.5 seconds for the transition. This specific configuration includes a magnet for CMSE or DMSE sensors, a PT1/8 cylinder port, and a 27 mm cushion length.
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 integrated rod lock is 600 N.
The spring-applied collet clamps the rod bidirectionally, providing a 600 N static hold with no live air. It is not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops, and release it only when both sides are pressure-balanced with at least 0.5 seconds allowed.
