NFPA Hydraulic Cylinders
NFPA-style (National Fluid Power Association) high precision cylinders conform to standardized mounting, port location and dimensional standards, allowing direct interchange between suppliers without redesign. These tie-rod and flange-mounted cylinders are common where repairability and interchangeability are priorities.
- Typical applications: factory automation, presses, general industrial service.
- Strengths: easy replacement, broad aftermarket availability, predictable sizing.
- Market position: favored by Industrial and heavy-duty operations.
- Manufactured to standard designs and performance specifications, and generally interchangeable form one manufacturer to another.
- Cost: usually competitive; standardization reduces design and stocking costs.
As there is an infinite amount of possible combinations in this product range we recommend contacting Statewide Hydraulics directly for advise.

NFPA cylinders also have a selection of different rod diameters for each size, and rod and piston end cushions are available. Your hydraulic cylinder needs are covered with 18 different mounting styles for the 3000 PSI series and 16 for the 1000 PSI series models. Typically, these cylinders have shorter envelope dimensions and are manufactured to specification and order.
