Cylinders are responsible for converting hydraulic power into linear motion to do work or move a load by applying pressure to the cylinder’s piston. These somewhat simple devices usually feature a basic construction, including a piston inside a cylindrical or rectangular tube or body, end caps and housings, as well as necessary bolts, nuts, plugs, bearings, rod seals and wipers, and more.
In this Design Guide, the editors of Fluid Power World provide tips on sizing, selecting, mounting and maintaining these workhorses of fluid power.
