Hydraulic Cylinders

A hydraulic cylinder is a mechanical actuator that creates a linear, unidirectional force through either a push or pull motion.

Often considered the powerhouse of the industrial world, it is powered by hydrostatic energy – which is the blend of pressurised fluid and the rate that it moves at. The force from the fluid is what pushes the piston and rod forward. Different types of hydraulic cylinders are built to suit various applications – so it’s crucial that you select the appropriate type of cylinder for what you need. Selecting the wrong cylinder could cost you time and money.
