About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED50X200S
The AirTAC BSED50X200S 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 825 N each way at 0.5 MPa, while the internal collet mechanism delivers a bidirectional static holding force of 1400 N.
Because it is a double-rod design, the rear rod can carry a flag or cam for end-of-stroke signaling and naturally resists rotation. The lock engages fail-safe with no live air required, while the separate G1/8 release port and 0.7 MPa pressure ceiling ensure reliable operation. The -S magnet option supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
Double Rod + 1400 N Rod Lock (Ø50mm)
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 BSED50X200S 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 M16×1.5 both ends. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 825 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 1155 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 118 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 1400 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED50X200S Is Used
Vertical Lift Station Holding
Provides 1154 N of equal both-way drive for a vertical lift, while the 1400 N fail-safe collet locks the 20 mm rod instantly if air pressure drops, preventing uncontrolled falls.
Symmetric Tooling Shuttle
Uses the double-rod configuration to move a 50 mm bore tooling shuttle with equal force and speed in both directions, using the rear rod for external cam actuation.
Pallet Stop Gate
Applies the 825 N both-way force to actuate a conveyor pallet stop gate, engaging the spring-applied lock to hold the 200 mm stroke position securely during loading.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED50X200S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 50 mm bore model when your application requires both symmetric drive force and fail-safe mid-stroke holding. Verify your load does not exceed the 1400 N static holding force. If you need less force, the 40 mm bore offers 528 N at 0.5 MPa with 900 N holding; if you need more, the 63 mm bore provides 1402 N at 0.5 MPa with 2200 N holding. Always 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. For replacement, match the 200 mm stroke, PT1/4 port, and mounting choice (Basic, LB, FA, or TC).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need both symmetric force AND fail-safe hold?
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 1400 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 BSED50X200S FAQ
The spring-applied collet engages immediately, providing a bidirectional static holding force of 1400 N with no live air. It is a fail-safe holding lock, not a dynamic brake, so it only engages after the rod stops.
The double-rod design provides equal force both ways: 825 N at 0.5 MPa, 1154 N at 0.7 MPa, and a max drive of 118 kgf. To release the 1400 N lock safely, pressure-balance both piston sides and apply air to the G1/8 release port for at least 0.5 seconds.
