Rod LockBS Series
- Superior Locking Force: Offers a high mechanical holding force, consistently higher than that developed by the respective cylinder powered at 10 bar.
- Compact Dimensions: Designed to remain within the standard footprint dimensions of the cylinder's ISO profile.
- Universal Compatibility: Adaptable to ISO 15552 and ISO 6432 pneumatic cylinders, with the possibility of mounting on cylinders from major competitor brands as well.
- Free-Rod Version: Available in a specific variant for direct locking onto the rod, which can also be used without a connected pneumatic cylinder.
High-Performance Mechanical Safety Rod Lock for Pneumatic Cylinders
The patented BS series rod lock by Airwork is the ideal solution to ensure maximum safety in pneumatic systems. Designed to be fitted to cylinders complying with ISO 15552 and ISO 6432 (VDMA) standards, this mechanical device allows the cylinder rod to be locked in any position.
It is an essential choice to prevent undesired movement or accidental load drop in the event of a sudden pressure drop or loss of air supply in the system.
Fields of Application
-
Industrial Safety Systems: Prevention of accidental drops of suspended loads in the absence of compressed air.
-
Positioners and Translators: Precision intermediate stopping along the cylinder stroke.
-
Feed and Packaging Lines: Temporary clamping/holding of workpieces during machining or assembly phases.
-
Lifts and Vertical Axes: Safety mechanical holding for vertically arranged pneumatic axes.
