The AirTAC Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X150S combines a double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder — a Ø25mm rod out BOTH ends for equal force both directions — with an integrated spring-applied, air-released ROD LOCK that holds up to 3600 N in either direction if air is lost. Ø80mm bore, 150mm stroke, PT3/8 ports, G1/8 lock-release.
The AirTAC BSED80X150S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 cylinder featuring an integrated spring-applied, air-released rod lock. A rod exits both ends to deliver equal force in both directions, generating 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa and 3175 N at 0.7 MPa. The rear rod provides stable mounting for tooling or position flags while resisting rotation. The collet lock delivers a 3600 N static holding force, clamping the rod securely during pressure loss or E-stop events.
This profile-type extruded-aluminum cylinder uses a separate G1/8 port for lock release, keeping the fail-safe mechanism entirely distinct from the adjustable air cushions at both ends. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the integrated -S magnet enables position detection with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. The lock is a static holding device, not a dynamic brake, engaging only after the rod stops.
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 BSED80X150S 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.

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.

Holds a 3600 N machining fixture firmly on both strokes while the double-rod delivers 3175 N of equal clamping force for balanced material processing.
Secures a vertical lift load instantly upon air loss using the 3600 N collet, while the dual rods prevent platform twisting during transit.
Provides 2268 N of equal push/pull force at 0.5 MPa for a reversing conveyor shuttle, locking the 80 mm rod safely during changeovers.
Select this 80 mm bore model when your application demands symmetric both-way force and failsafe mid-stroke holding. Verify your load requires holding at or below 3600 N. If you need less drive force, the 63 mm bore offers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa and a 2200 N hold; if you need more power, the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N hold. 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 the transition. Replacement matches require bore 80 mm, 150 mm stroke, PT3/8 cylinder porting, and the -S magnet. For any stroke of 300 mm or longer, add external guide rails to prevent side-load wear.
Quick checklist
The spring-applied collet immediately clamps the rod, delivering a 3600 N static holding force to prevent movement. It is a fail-safe static lock, not a dynamic brake, so it must only be engaged after the rod stops. To release the lock safely, both piston sides must be pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds for the transition.
The double-rod design delivers equal force both ways: 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum drive force of 324 kgf. The fail-safe rod lock provides a separate 3600 N static holding force with no live air required. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa.
