The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED63X200S 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, 200mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED63X200S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends, delivering equal force in both directions—about 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The rear rod provides an excellent mounting point for tooling or flags while actively resisting rotational twist.
This fail-safe collet lock clamps the rod bidirectionally with a static holding force of 2200 N, maintaining position without live air if pressure drops or an E-stop trips. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock releases via a separate G1/8 port. The integrated -S magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors for precise position feedback.
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 BSED63X200S 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.
Lifts 200 kgf loads at 0.7 MPa with equal both-way force, while the 2200 N fail-safe collet locks the rod instantly if air pressure is lost.
The double-rod design resists rotational twist during part clamping, and the rear rod allows mounting a cam flag to trigger DMSE electronic sensors.
Holds indexing pallets securely in place without consuming live air, releasing quickly via the G1/8 port once the system is pressure-balanced.
Select this 63 mm bore when an application demands both symmetric drive force and reliable mid-stroke holding. Verify your load requires no more than 2200 N of static holding force. If you need less force, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N at 0.5 MPa and 1400 N holding; if you need more, step up to the 80 mm bore for 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and 3600 N holding.
Engage the lock only after the rod completely stops, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds for the transition. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, and -S magnet option. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, add external guide rails to prevent excessive side loading on the rod.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet immediately engages to provide a 2200 N static holding force, clamping the rod bidirectionally at its current position without any live air. It is a fail-safe holding lock, not a dynamic brake, so it must only be engaged after the rod has stopped moving.
This double-rod cylinder provides equal drive force in both directions: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum drive force of 200 kgf. Separately, the integrated rod lock provides a 2200 N static holding force.
