Replacement welded rod hydraulic cylinders and welded rod cylinder component parts are cost-effective and high-performing options for low-profile and high-pressure applications. But, with so many standard or custom welded rod hydraulic cylinder options available, understanding this equipment and selecting the best hydraulic cylinder for your application can present a challenge. The HCI blog is here to help. We provide high-quality advice, tips, and troubleshooting to keep your welded rod hydraulic cylinder operating at a high level while avoiding costly equipment failures.
Cranes powered by hydraulic cylinders are lightweight, easy-to-operate, and cost-effective options for construction equipment, material handling, and other industrial lifting operations. Heavy-duty hydraulic cylinders allow cranes to lift and move weighty loads. Additionally, compared to conventional cranes, hydraulic cranes take up less space, making them an ideal solution for applications in industrial facilities, smaller areas, …
Several factors go into choosing a hydraulic cylinder, but one of the most important is the design. Standard hydraulic cylinders fall into two categories: tie rod and welded rod. These categories speak to the cylinder design only—specifically, how the cylinder barrel is attached to the end caps. We will address this and other design and …
You know you need a different or new hydraulic cylinder. But where do you begin? Choosing the right hydraulic cylinder requires knowing what type of cylinder is best suited for your application requirements. It also requires understanding the size and operating factors necessary for optimal performance. Choose the Right Hydraulic Cylinder that Meets Your Needs …
Monterrey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) is the world center for advanced research and education in ocean science and technology. Utilizing a combination of instruments, systems, and methods, engineers and scientists research the deep waters of the ocean. Since the first historic submersible dive in 1985, MBARI has lead the way for underwater study of …
Cylinder Construction Types Differences in the design and manufacturing of cylinders depend primarily on what the industry and application are. Each type uses a different methodology on how the end caps are attached to the cylinder barrel as well as internal nuances. Barrel and end cap wall thickness also vary depending on materials used, cylinder …
