1. Head/Cap
Precision machined steel head and cpa provide close concertricity and accurate alignment between piston, tube, piston rod and rod bearing.
2. Cylinder Barrel
Damage resistant, heavy wall steel tubing, honed to an 8 to 16 micro finish for low frictional drag and maximum seal and piston bearing life.
3. Rod Cartridge
Extra long, high strength bronze gland provides maximum bearing support and wear resistance. With certain exceptions, a removable retainer allows for gland removal without cylinder disassembly.
4. Piston
One piece fine grained cast iron piston provides maximum strength and protection against shock loads. Anaerobic adhesive is used to permanently lock and seal the piston to the rod.
5. Piston Rod
One piece fine grained cast iron piston provides maximum strength and protection against shock loads. Anaerobic adhesive is used to permanently lock and seal the piston to the rod.
6. Tie Rods
100,000 to 125,000 PSI minimum yield steel, pre-stressed for fatigue resistance, and roll threaded for added strength.
7. Cushions
Head cushion sleeve and rear cushion spear are machined to close tolerances to provide a gradual deceleration and reduced shock at end of stroke.
8. Cushion Needle Adjustment & Bell Check
Flush mounted captive cushion adjustment allows for safe cushion adjustment under pressure. Special tip design and fine threads allow for precise adjustment over a broad range of operations. Cushion ball check allows for fast break-away under full power.
9. Tube End Seals
Flush mounted captive cushion adjustment allows for safe cushion adjustment under pressure. Special tip design and fine threads allow for precise adjustment over a broad range of operations. Cushion ball check allows for fast break-away under full power.
10. Ports
Flush mounted captive cushion adjustment allows for safe cushion adjustment under pressure. Special tip design and fine threads allow for precise adjustment over a broad range of operations. Cushion ball check allows for fast break-away under full power.
11. Rod Seals
Twin lip urethane rod seal is pressure energized and wear-compensating for long, leak-free service. Viton® seals are optional.
12. Piston Seals
Pressure energized nitrile U-cups with back-up rings are standard. Step cut cast iron rings and Viton® seals are optional.
13. Rod Wiper
Pressure energized nitrile U-cups with back-up rings are standard. Step cut cast iron rings and Viton® seals are optional.
