A hydraulic cylinder is a device that converts hydraulic energy into mechanical movement, used for tasks such as lifting, pressing, or pulling in machines like excavators and cranes.

A hydraulic cylinder functions by pumping hydraulic oil into the cylinder, creating pressure that moves the piston, which then performs work.

Double-acting cylinders with a high pressure rating provide the best control and lifting power for front loaders and tractors.

The stroke length depends on the movement you want to achieve—contact our experts for help calculating the correct measurement.

This depends on usage and working conditions, but a seasonal inspection is generally recommended, with replacement if there are signs of leakage.
