A device (1) for holding and / or moving a rod-shaped body (2) is proposed, comprising: a fully enclosed housing (3) with a longitudinal axis (L) along which the rod-shaped body (2) is guided or is to be guided; a thrust
piston (4) surrounding the rod-shaped body (2), which can be subjected to a first pressure from the outside via a first pressure port (L) through the housing (3) and which can be subjected to a second pressure from the outside via a second pressure port (K) through the housing (3), and which has a first
effective surface (5) and a second
effective surface (6), which effective surfaces (5, 6) preferably extend in a radial direction, wherein the first
effective surface (5) is in fluidic operative connection with the first pressure port (L) and the second effective surface (6) is in fluidic operative connection with the second pressure port (K), wherein the thrust
piston (4) has a radially internal recess (7) through which a circumferential
free space (8) is formed between the rod-shaped body (2) and an inner surface (9) of the thrust
piston (4), which
free space (8) has an axial limit (10, 11) on both sides; and at least one clamping sleeve (12) which, with its inner surface (13), defines a central cylindrical area through which the rod-shaped body (2) is guided or can be guided, and which is received in the aforementioned
free space (8), extending axially between the two axial limits (10, 11), wherein the clamping sleeve (12) can be subjected to a third pressure from the outside via a third pressure port (V) through the force-pull piston (4) and is designed to deform itself reversibly radially inwards according to the third pressure and to exert a holding force on the rod-shaped body (2).
