Robust Construction for Demanding ProjectsDesigned to withstand intense pressures, this cylinder utilizes high chrome plated steel for its piston rod and hardened alloy steel for its lock nut. The black oxide, hard-anodized finish enhances durability and resists corrosion, making it suitable for heavy lifting, structural alignment, and bridge construction. The high efficiency design and corrosion protection ensure reliability in Indias diverse climates.
Precision and Safety in OperationFeaturing a lock nut for positive mechanical load holding and a safety factor of 1.5, the cylinder provides dependable operation in critical pre-stressing and heavy lifting tasks. Grooved piston ends and polyurethane/nitrile seals contribute to secure, leak-free performance, with spring return facilitating swift retraction even under challenging worksite conditions.
FAQs of Single-Acting Load Return Pancake Lock Nut Cylinder:
Q: How does the single-acting load return mechanism function in this pancake lock nut cylinder?
A: The cylinder employs a hydraulic stroke to extend and a spring return to retract, providing reliable operation without the need for external retraction pressure. This simplifies usage by enabling automatic return once hydraulic pressure is released.
Q: What applications are best suited for this cylinder in India?
A: This pancake lock nut cylinder is ideal for heavy lifting, bridge construction, pre-stressing, and structural alignment tasks where low height, high force, and precise mechanical load holding are required, especially in situations with space constraints.
Q: When should the lock nut feature be engaged during operation?
A: The lock nut should be engaged after the piston has been fully extended and the load is positioned. This secures the mechanical hold, allowing for safe, long-term support without maintaining hydraulic pressure on the cylinder.
Q: Where can these cylinders be sourced from in India?
A: You may acquire these cylinders from authorized distributors, service providers, and suppliers specializing in hydraulic equipment throughout India. Seek local support for installation, service, and genuine accessories to ensure optimal performance.
Q: What is the standard process for maintaining this hydraulic cylinder?
A: Routine maintenance involves inspecting seals for wear, checking for hydraulic leaks, cleaning dust caps and couplers, and ensuring the lock nut and piston grooves are free of debris. Lubrication and periodic checks of the spring return mechanism further enhance lifespan.
Q: How does the low-profile design benefit users during installation and operation?
A: The low-profile structure allows this cylinder to fit into confined spaces, making it easier to position under loads or inside tight construction areas. Its flat base mount facilitates stable placement and secure operation, resulting in efficient project workflow.
