The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED63X600 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, 600mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED63X600 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 drive force in both directions—about 1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel provides ISO 15552 dimensional interchangeability without external tie rods.
This fail-safe collet lock provides a 2200 N static holding force with no live air required. It engages bidirectionally when pressure is lost or an E-stop trips, holding the rod securely at position. The lock is not a dynamic brake; engage it only after the rod stops, and release it only when both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds. This SKU has no magnet, so position sensing is not available.
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 BSED63X600 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.

Uses the 2200 N fail-safe lock to hold a 100 kg vertical lift platform securely in place during an air loss event, while the 1962 N both-way drive force raises and lowers the load.
Employs the double-rod design to mount a stopper flag on the rear rod for a conveyor line, utilizing the equal both-way motion to actuate the gate without rotational torque.
Clamps a mid-stroke machining fixture using the 2200 N spring-applied collet, ensuring the 600 mm stroke position remains rigidly fixed during a cutting cycle with zero live air.
Select this 63 mm bore model when an application requires symmetric both-way force and intermediate fail-safe holding. Verify your static load does not exceed the 2200 N holding force. If you need less drive force, the 50 mm bore offers 825 N at 0.5 MPa and a 1400 N hold; if you need more, the 80 mm bore provides 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and a 3600 N hold. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
With a 600 mm stroke, use a guide rail to prevent side-load damage to the seals and rod lock collet. When ordering a replacement, match the 63 mm bore, 600 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, G1/8 release port, and the mounting style (Basic, LB, FA, or TC).
Quick checklist
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum drive of 200 kgf. The integrated fail-safe rod lock provides a separate 2200 N static holding force.
The lock is spring-applied and air-released via the G1/8 port. You must release it only after the rod has completely stopped moving and both piston sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds for the collet to disengage.
