Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED40X175S
The AirTAC BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED40X175S combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø16mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 900 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø40mm bore, 175mm stroke, PT1/4 ports, G1/8 lock-release.

About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED40X175S
The AirTAC BSED40X175S 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 drive force of 528 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The collet lock delivers a 900 N static holding force, securing the load with no live air.
This extruded aluminum body avoids external tie rods while utilizing a separate G1/8 release port. The -S magnet option supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for position feedback. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock engages bidirectionally only after the rod stops moving.
Double Rod + 900 N Rod Lock (Ø40mm)
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 BSED40X175S 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 M12×1.25 both ends. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 739 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 75 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 900 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED40X175S Is Used
Vertical Lift Jigs
Raises and lowers a 75 kgf jig with 739 N both-way force, engaging the 900 N lock to secure the load safely during an E-stop.
Pallet Transfer Stop
Uses the rear exiting rod for a cam flag while the main rod halts pallets; the 900 N hold prevents drift when air is removed.
Symmetric Sealing Press
Applies 528 N of equal force in both directions for sealing operations, locking the 16mm rod instantly if pressure drops.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED40X175S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 40mm bore when an application requires 739 N of symmetric force alongside a 900 N fail-safe hold. If your load demands less force, step down to the 32mm bore (345 N at 0.5 MPa, 600 N hold). For heavier loads, step up to the 50mm bore (825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1400 N hold). Always verify the load to hold is 900 N or less. Engage the lock only after the rod stops, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds. Replacement matches require the 40mm bore, 175mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and mounting option.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need both symmetric force AND fail-safe hold?
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 900 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 BSED40X175S FAQ
The spring-applied collet clamp engages automatically, providing a 900 N bidirectional static hold with no live air. It is a fail-safe holding lock, not a dynamic brake, so it must engage only after the rod stops moving.
Drive force is equal both ways at 528 N at 0.5 MPa and 739 N at 0.7 MPa, with a max drive of 75 kgf. The static holding force is 900 N. Speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
