The AirTAC BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED63X150 combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø20mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 2200 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø63mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED63X150 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder with an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, providing equal thrust and speed in both directions. It delivers a drive force of 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa, and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod is ideal for mounting a flag or cam and naturally resists rotation.
The integrated collet lock provides a 2200 N bidirectional static holding force. If air pressure drops or an E-stop trips, the spring clamps the rod to hold the load safely in place without live air. The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port, and the operating pressure ceiling is 0.7 MPa. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it does not support CMSE or DMSE 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 BSED63X150 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.

| 0.5 MPa | 1402 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 1962 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 200 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 2200 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 150kg vertical jig securely with 2200N of fail-safe force while providing equal 1962N up/down drive.
Uses the dual rods to prevent rotation and deliver identical 1402N clamping force at 0.5MPa in both travel directions.
Indexes a conveyor gate with equal speed both ways, locking instantly with 2200N if the air supply fails mid-cycle.
Select this 63mm bore when you need symmetric 1962 N drive force alongside a 2200 N fail-safe hold. If your load to hold is below 1400 N and you need less thrust, step down to the 50mm bore (825 N @0.5 MPa, 1400 N hold). If you need more holding or drive force, step up to the 80mm bore (2268 N @0.5 MPa, 3600 N hold). Always confirm your load is under the 2200 N static limit.
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 exact replacements, match the 150mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, M16x1.5 rod thread, and your mounting choice (Basic, LB, FA, or TC). At 150mm stroke, side loads are moderate, but always guide the load to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet instantly clamps the rod, providing a 2200N bidirectional static hold without any live air. It is a fail-safe lock, not a dynamic brake, so it only engages after the rod stops.
The drive force is equal both ways: 1402N at 0.5MPa and 1962N at 0.7MPa (max 200 kgf). The static holding force of the lock is 2200N. The lock uses a separate G1/8 release port.
