Tractor and front end loader hydraulic cylinders are critical components in agricultural and construction machinery, providing the necessary force for lifting, pushing, and pulling operations. These cylinders convert hydraulic energy into mechanical motion, enabling efficient performance in demanding environments. With decades of engineering expertise, our products are designed to meet the highest standards of durability and reliability, ensuring optimal functionality for your equipment.
Our hydraulic cylinders are manufactured with precision, using high-quality materials to withstand extreme conditions. Below are the detailed specifications presented in lists and tables for clarity.
| Parameter | Specification Range | Units |
|---|---|---|
| Bore Diameter | 2" to 8" | Inches |
| Stroke Length | 6" to 48" | Inches |
| Operating Pressure | Up to 3000 PSI | PSI |
| Temperature Range | -40°F to 250°F | °F |
| Rod Diameter | 1" to 5" | Inches |
| Weight Capacity | Up to 20,000 lbs | Pounds |
These cylinders are essential in various applications, including agriculture for plowing and harvesting, construction for material handling, and industrial settings. They are compatible with brands like John Deere, Caterpillar, and Kubota, ensuring broad utility across different machinery types.
What is the typical lifespan of a hydraulic cylinder?
The lifespan varies based on usage and maintenance, but with proper care, our cylinders can last 5-10 years or more. Regular inspection of seals and fluid levels is recommended to extend longevity.
How do I choose the right cylinder for my tractor?
Consider factors such as bore size, stroke length, and operating pressure. Match these to your equipment's specifications, and consult our sizing guide or contact support for personalized recommendations.
Can hydraulic cylinders be repaired if they leak?
Yes, most cylinders can be repaired by replacing seals or damaged components. We offer repair kits and services to restore functionality, often more cost-effective than full replacement.
What maintenance is required for hydraulic cylinders?
Routine maintenance includes checking for leaks, ensuring clean hydraulic fluid, and inspecting rods for scratches. Lubricate moving parts periodically and store cylinders in a dry environment when not in use.
Are custom hydraulic cylinders available?
Absolutely. We provide custom solutions tailored to specific needs, including unique dimensions, materials, and mounting options. Submit your requirements for a quote.
What causes hydraulic cylinder failure?
Common causes include contamination in hydraulic fluid, seal degradation due to temperature extremes, misalignment during installation, or overloading beyond rated capacity.
How do I install a hydraulic cylinder correctly?
Follow the manufacturer's guidelines: ensure proper alignment, use correct mounting hardware, and bleed air from the system after installation to prevent performance issues.
What are the signs that a cylinder needs replacement?
Signs include persistent leaks, reduced lifting power, uneven movement, or visible damage to the rod or tube. Early detection through regular checks can prevent major failures.
