The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED63X80 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, 80mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED63X80 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 in both directions—1402 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 1962 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod can carry tooling or a flag cam while resisting rotation.
The fail-safe collet lock delivers a 2200 N static holding force with zero live air, securing the load if pressure drops. It engages only after the rod stops and releases when piston sides are pressure-balanced, requiring at least 0.5 s. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock uses a separate G1/8 release port. This SKU has no magnet, so position sensors are not supported.
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 BSED63X80 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 2200 N vertical load safely during air loss or E-stop, while the double-rod delivers 1962 N of equal lifting and lowering force.
Uses the rear rod for a cam flag to confirm position, clamping the rod securely with no live air to halt heavy conveyor flow.
Equal 1402 N force at 0.5 MPa both ways ensures smooth part shuttling, with the collet lock preventing drift during station dwells.
Choose this 63 mm bore when an application demands both symmetric force and fail-safe holding up to 2200 N. If your load to hold is lower, the 50 mm bore offers 1154 N drive force at 0.7 MPa and 1400 N holding. If you need more drive or hold, stepping up to the 80 mm bore provides 3175 N drive and 3600 N holding. Remember the lock is a static hold, not a dynamic brake; engage it only after motion stops. For replacements, match the 63 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT3/8 port, and mounting choice (Basic, LB, FA, or TC).
Quick checklist
The lock provides a 2200 N static holding force with no live air. The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 1402 N at 0.5 MPa, 1962 N at 0.7 MPa, with a max drive of 200 kgf.
Release the lock only after the rod has stopped moving and both piston sides are pressure-balanced. Allow at least 0.5 seconds for the spring-applied collet to disengage via the G1/8 release port before resuming motion.
