The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED32X800 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, 800mm stroke, PT1/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED32X800 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. Because it is a double-rod design, a rod exits both ends, delivering equal force in both directions—about 345 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The rear rod can mount a flag or cam while resisting rotation.
This unit provides a 600 N static holding force with no live air. If pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the collet clamps the rod to hold position. Note that this 800 mm stroke exceeds the 700 mm standard maximum, making it a non-standard, made-to-order item. The cylinder uses a PT1/8 port, a separate G1/8 release port, and lacks a magnet for 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 BSED32X800 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.

Halts a 483 N push on an 800 mm stroke transfer line. The 600 N fail-safe lock holds the load securely during air loss, while the double rod prevents rotation.
Raises and lowers light jigs with equal 345 N force both ways. The spring-applied collet engages to hold the platform safely in position when air is removed.
Drives a diverter arm equally in both directions over 800 mm. The rear rod mounts a cam for limit switches, and the 600 N lock holds the arm mid-stroke.
Select this 32 mm bore when you need symmetric 345 N drive force at 0.5 MPa alongside a 600 N fail-safe hold. If you need less force, no smaller BSED bore exists. If you need more, step up to the 40 mm bore, which provides 528 N drive force at 0.5 MPa and a 900 N holding force. Always ensure your load is under 600 N when held.
Engage the lock only after the rod stops, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 s. Because this is an 800 mm stroke, use a guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the seals. For a direct replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 800 mm stroke, PT thread, and Basic/LB/FA/TC mounting.
Quick checklist
The integrated rod lock is spring-applied and air-released. If air pressure drops below 0.15 MPa or an E-stop trips, the collet clamps the rod, providing a 600 N static holding force to keep the load in position without live air.
The BSED32X800 delivers equal both-way drive force of 345 N at 0.5 MPa and 483 N at 0.7 MPa (max 49 kgf). The static holding force is 600 N. It operates at 30-800 mm/s, uses a PT1/8 cylinder port, and has no magnet for sensors.
