Enerpac RC102NV general purpose hydraulic cylinder provides controlled, powerful linear force for lifting heavy objects and pushing, pulling or bending metal components. It is suitable for construction, manufacturing, automotive repair and maintenance tasks.
Working Mechanism:
- This Enerpac RC102NV general purpose hydraulic cylinder operates on a simple yet effective hydraulic mechanism.
- When hydraulic pressure is applied to the cylinder, it forces the piston and attached plunger to extend outward, creating a linear force.
- The piston moves within the cylinder's housing, pressurising the hydraulic fluid.
- To retract the plunger, a spring-return mechanism is employed, which pulls the piston and plunger back into the cylinder when the hydraulic pressure is released.
Features:
- It features a single-acting / spring return design for an efficient and controlled operation.
- This hydraulic hollow cylinder has a solid plunger and features steel construction for long-lasting and dependable performance.
- It offers Viton seals for excellent chemical and heat resistance.
- This 10 ton hydraulic hollow cylinder is equipped with a CR400 coupler for easy connections.
- It further has nickel-plated surface finish for enhanced corrosion resistance and durability.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What type of seal is used in this cylinder?
