Since you most likely already know from what machine the cylinder is part of, as well as your own zip code (two necessary pieces of information), you need to know just three things:

• The diameter of the cylinder rod
• The diameter of the cylinder barrel (ID or OD)
• The overall length of the cylinder, when completely compressed, from the outermost edge of the pin eye to the outer edge of the clevis

Armed with these three things, you can call us to receive an estimate. We're proud to offer affordable cylinder and hydraulic repairs in our community.

Since you most likely already know from what machine the cylinder is part of, as well as your own zip code (two necessary pieces of information), you need to know just five things:

Hydraulic Power Units are the main driving components of hydraulic systems. Consisting mainly of a motor, a reservoir and a hydraulic pump, these units can generate a tremendous amount of power to drive most any kind of hydraulic ram. Hydraulic Power Units are based on Pascal’s law of physics, drawing their power from ratios of area and pressure.

Hydraulic Power Units are used in a wide range of applications, including:

Machine Tools

Automation

Meat Processing Machinery

Mobile Equipment

Aerospace Test Equipment

Rolling Mill Machinery

Material Handling

Agricultural Equipment

Paper Mill Machinery

Government/Military

Oil Field

Oil Spill Clean Up Equipment

Industrial Process

Marine Equipment

Construction Equipment

Theatrical & Production Equipment

Hydraulic Power Units can generally be used in any application that requires heavy and systematic lifting or other requirements for the repeated use of powerful and directional force.

Drive past any construction site and you’re likely to see some kind of heavy construction machine, be it a bull dozer, an excavator or even a skidsteer. All of these machines rely on hydraulic power units to do their work. Fisherman rely on hydraulic power units to lift their nets and pots. Your auto mechanic uses a hydraulic power unit to lift your car high enough to walk around beneath it and make repairs. The Jaws of Life, a tool that has saved many lives in auto accidents, relies on a hydraulic power unit for its incredible cutting power. Farmers use hydraulic-driven machinery to tend and harvest their crops. The garbage truck that picks up your trash uses a hydraulic power unit to compact the garbage it collects. Your favorite amusement park ride probably utilizes hydraulics to lift you high and fast into the air and give you a soft, safe landing. Remember when you stepped on the brakes to avoid that last small animal that ran out into the road? Modern auto braking systems rely on the power of hydraulics.

A pump converts rotational force on its shaft into pressurized oil to supply hydraulic components. Example: electric or gas motor turns pump shaft, pump supplies oil to a cylinder. Pumps generally have a large suction port and a smaller pressure port.

A hydraulic motor converts pressurized oil to one of its ports into rotational force on its shaft. Motors generally have equal size ports.

Pumps and motors sometimes look alike. A major difference is the shaft seal. The low pressure suction chamber of a pump provides an ideal place to drain pressure away from the inside of the seal. So most pumps have very low pressure shaft seals. Hydraulic motors usually require higher pressure shaft seals.

A single acting cylinder only provides force one way (most snow plow and telescopic cylinders are single acting). A double acting cylinder provides force when extending and retracting.

In a displacement (single acting) cylinder the rod is extended by flowing pressurized oil behind the rod, which forces the rod out of the barrel like a piston. Once the pressure is released, the load on the cylinder retracts the rod. The diameter of the rod is the effective piston area.

Force (lbs) is determined by multiplying the area of the piston by the pressure (PSI): 

(π x r^2 x PSI)

Speed (sec. per stroke) is determined by the volume of the cylinder (gal.) divided by the volume of the pump (GPM) x 60 sec per min: (Vcyl ÷ GPM x 60)
