About the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X400
The AirTAC BSED80X400 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 of 2268 N each way at 0.5 MPa. The rear rod is ideal for mounting tooling, flags, or anti-rotation guides.
The fail-safe collet lock delivers a 3600 N static holding force with no live air, instantly securing the 400 mm stroke if pressure drops. Operating pressure is capped at 0.7 MPa, and the lock releases via a separate G1/8 port. This SKU has no magnet, so position sensing is not available.
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 BSED80X400 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 BSED80X400 Is Used
Vertical Lift Stations
Holds a 3600 N vertical load securely mid-stroke during air loss, while the 3175 N both-way drive ensures stable up and down actuation.
Dual-End Tooling Jigs
Uses the rear rod for cam flags and equal 2268 N force both directions at 0.5 MPa, clamping securely via the collet during E-stops.
Pallet Diverters
Provides 324 kgf maximum symmetric drive to shift heavy pallets, locking instantly with 3600 N of static hold when the line halts.
Is the Airtac BSED Clamping Double Acting Cylinder BSED80X400 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 80 mm bore when you need symmetric 3175 N drive force at 0.7 MPa alongside a 3600 N fail-safe hold. If your load requires less force, the 63 mm bore offers 1402 N at 0.5 MPa with a 2200 N hold; if you need more, the 100 mm bore provides 3681 N at 0.5 MPa and a 5500 N hold. Always verify your load is under 3600 N.
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 this 400 mm stroke, use external guides to prevent side-loading and premature seal wear. This model uses a PT3/8 cylinder port, a G1/8 release port, and Basic, LB, FA, or TC mounting.
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 BSED80X400 FAQ
The double-rod drive force is equal both ways: 2268 N at 0.5 MPa and 3175 N at 0.7 MPa, yielding a maximum 324 kgf drive. The static holding force of the fail-safe rod lock is 3600 N.
If air is lost, the spring-applied collet clamps the rod instantly, providing a 3600 N static hold. To release, apply pressure to the separate G1/8 port only after both cylinder sides are pressure-balanced, allowing at least 0.5 seconds.
