About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X100
The AirTAC BSED80X100 is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. Because a rod exits both ends, it delivers equal force in both directions—generating 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The rear rod can mount a flag or cam while resisting rotational torque.
A collet clamps the rod to provide a 3600 N static fail-safe hold without requiring live air. This lock is bidirectional and engages only after the cylinder stops moving. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, meaning CMSE or DMSE position sensors cannot be used.
Double Rod + 3600 N Rod Lock (Ø80mm)
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 BSED80X100 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 M20×1.5 both ends. Mounting (BSED): Basic, LB, FA, TC. Port options: PT (standard) / G (BSPP); lock-release port is G1/8.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Force (both directions) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa (max) | 3175 N |
| Max drive (@0.7 MPa) | 324 kgf |
A rod exits both ends, so force is equal on extend and retract. Drive force is separate from the 3600 N static lock holding force. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X100 Is Used
Machining Center Clamping
Secures heavy workholding fixtures with 3175 N of equal both-way force, while the 3600 N fail-safe lock prevents fixture drift if shop air drops during a cycle.
Pallet Indexing Gate
Uses the double-rod design to mount an external cam on the rear rod for position feedback, holding the 80 mm barrier steady against 2268 N of bi-directional load.
Overhead Lift Arrest
Provides a 3600 N static hold to arrest a vertically lifted payload the moment an E-stop is pressed, though safety-rated controls are required for man-rated loads.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X100 the Right Cylinder?
Select this 80 mm bore when your application requires symmetric both-way drive alongside a 3600 N static holding capacity. If your load demands less force, the 63 mm bore offers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa and a 2200 N hold. For heavier loads, stepping up to the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N hold. Always verify your load stays under the 3600 N lock limit.
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. When replacing a unit, match the 100 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder port, G1/8 release port, and specific mounting style (Basic, LB, FA, or TC).
Quick checklist
- ✓ Need both symmetric force AND fail-safe hold?
- ✓ Load to hold ≤ 3600 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 BSED80X100 FAQ
This cylinder generates an equal drive force of 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and 3175 N at 0.7 MPa (max 324 kgf) in both directions. The integrated fail-safe rod lock provides a bidirectional static holding force of 3600 N with no live air required.
Release the lock only after both piston sides are pressure-balanced. Apply air to the separate G1/8 release port and allow at least 0.5 seconds for the collet to disengage before commanding cylinder movement. The lock is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake.
