Yates Industries Launches New 7-Day Lead Time on Mobile Hydraulic Cylinders 

To help customers get back to work faster, Yates Industries is introducing a new 7-day manufacturing lead time on select custom mobile hydraulic cylinders.

When a hydraulic cylinder fails or a new machine build is delayed because critical components haven’t arrived, every day counts. Across industries like construction, agriculture, forestry, waste management, transportation, and material handling, waiting four to six weeks for a replacement mobile hydraulic cylinder can mean missed deadlines, reduced productivity, and extremely costly downtime. 

To help customers get back to work faster, Yates Industries is introducing a new 7-day manufacturing lead time on select custom mobile hydraulic cylinders. Manufactured in Austell, Georgia, Yates is providing a faster solution without sacrificing the quality and engineering customers have come to expect. 

A Faster Solution for Today’s Equipment Demands

Equipment operators and OEMs are under constant pressure to keep projects moving. Unfortunately, long manufacturing lead times for hydraulic cylinders have become a common industry challenge. 

Whether replacing a damaged cylinder or sourcing components for new equipment, waiting several weeks can create detrimental operational issues, including: 

  • Unexpected equipment downtime
  • Delayed production schedules
  • Missed customer deadlines
  • Increased rental and labor costs
  • Reduced productivity and profitability

Yates Industries recognized this growing challenge and developed a streamlined manufacturing program to dramatically reduce lead times for some of its most requested mobile cylinder configurations. 

Yates Offers New 7-Day Lead Time Available on Select Mobile Cylinders

Customers can now receive qualifying mobile/welded cylinders in as little as seven business days.

This expedited manufacturing program is currently available for the following cylinder configurations:

  • Clevis Mount (Yates WH-DTS-B)
  • Spherical Eye Mount (Yates WH-DTS-Q)
  • Crosstube Mount (Yates WH-DTS-T)
  • Eye Mount (Yates WH-DTS-V)

To qualify for expedited lead times, orders must meet the following requirements:

  • Quantities: 1-20 cylinders
  • Bore Sizes: 1.5″-4″
  • Rod Diameters: 0.75″-2″

This program allows customers to receive high-quality custom mobile hydraulic cylinders significantly faster than traditional industry lead times. 

Built for Mobile Hydraulic Applications

Yates Industries’ welded hydraulic cylinders are designed for demanding mobile equipment operating in harsh environments where reliability is essential. 

Common applications include: 

  • Construction equipment
  • Agricultural machinery
  • Forestry equipment
  • Mining support equipment
  • Material handling equipment
  • Industrial mobile machinery
  • Truck-mounted equipment
  • Utility equipment
  • Refuse and waste vehicles

Each cylinder is manufactured to deliver dependable performance under demanding operating conditions while meeting the application’s specific requirements. 

Why Faster Lead Times Matter

For many businesses, hydraulic cylinders aren’t simply replacement parts—they’re production-critical components. 

Every additional week spent waiting on a cylinder can result in: 

Costly Equipment Downtime

A single disabled machine can halt an entire operation, reducing productivity while increasing labor costs. 

Delayed OEM Production

Manufacturers relying on hydraulic cylinders for new equipment builds often experience bottlenecks when suppliers cannot deliver components on schedule. 

Lost Revenue

Missed project deadlines and idle equipment directly impact profitability. 

Customer Dissatisfaction

For service providers, extended repair timelines can negatively affect customer relationships and future business opportunities. 

By reducing lead times from several weeks to just seven business days on qualifying orders, Yates Industries helps customers minimize these risks and return equipment to service faster.
