Features and Benefits

  • High-pressure durability : Rated operating pressure up to 3000 PSI , made with high-strength microalloyed steel tubing and cast steel lug base, designed specifically for heavy-duty industrial and agricultural machinery.

  • Excellent corrosion resistance and lifespan : The piston rod is precision ground, polished and hard chrome plated , which can effectively reduce frictional resistance, prevent scratches and extend the life of the seals.

  • Easy-to-maintain design : Equipped with a threaded screw-in cylinder head (Gland Cap) , it can be easily disassembled without special clamping tools when the seal needs to be replaced or maintenance is required.

  • Long stroke load capacity : While meeting the requirements of 18" long stroke operation, it combines heavy-duty cast steel lugs to have excellent lateral load resistance and high cost performance.

Applications

Primary Vehicle Applications

  • Standard Dump Trucks (Class 7 & Class 8): Widely used on 10-wheelers, tri-axle, and quad-axle dump trucks with body lengths ranging from 14 to 18 feet .

  • Dump Trailers & End Dumps: Installed on medium-sized end dump semi-trailers or heavy-duty pull trailers requiring an aggressive tilt angle to shed stubborn

  • Pup Trailers: Commonly used on independent dump pup trailers towered behind a standard dump truck to maximize total hauling capacity.

    Industry & Material Handling Sectors

  • Construction & Aggregates: Lifting heavy loads of gravel, crushed stone, sand, and asphalt on rugged construction sites.

  • Demolition & Waste Management: Tipping large-volume truck bodies carrying concrete debris, scrap metal, and heavy municipal waste .

  • Mining & Earthmoving: Operating on site-specific support vehicles hauling heavy soil, overburden, and mineral ores .

  • Agriculture: Used on specialized agricultural bulk trailers for high-volume dumping of grain, silage, and fertilizers .

Packaging & Delivery

Shipping Methods

 2.5 Bore X 12 Stroke Clevis Hydraulic Cylinders are typically packaged securely to prevent damage during transit. The packaging includes:

Protective Wrapping: To safeguard the pump from environmental damage.

Custom Crates: For larger, heavier pumps, ensuring safe handling.

Documentation: Includes installation, maintenance instructions, and warranty details.

Delivery time depends on the model, customizations, and location but typically ranges from 2 to 6 weeks from the order date.


 2.5 Bore X 12 Stroke Clevis Hydraulic Cylinders  FAQ:

1. How much thrust can a hydraulic cylinder with a 2.5-inch bore and a 12-inch stroke generate?
The thrust of the hydraulic cylinder depends on your system's operating pressure (PSI) . The calculation formula is Force = Piston Area × Pressure
  • The cross-sectional area of a 2.5-inch cylinder is approximately 4.91 square inches .

  • At 2500 PSI pressure, the maximum thrust is approximately 12,270 pounds (about 5.56 tons) .

  • At 3000 PSI pressure, the maximum thrust is approximately 14,730 pounds (about 6.68 tons) .

  • In a 3500 PSI (such as heavy-duty welded type) high-pressure system, the maximum thrust can reach 17,185 pounds (approximately 7.79 tons) .

2. Why do 2.5x12 hydraulic cylinders have two different "closed lengths"?
This is where it's easiest to make a mistake when selecting a model. Depending on the application standard, pin-to-pin retracted pin distances are divided into two categories:
  • Standard universal type : The closed length is typically 22.25 inches (the total extended length is 34.25 inches). This size is used for most common tie-rod and welded hydraulic cylinders.

  • ASAE Standard Implement : The closed length is typically 24.25 inches (36.25 inches total length extended). This is designed specifically for certain U.S. standard agricultural machinery, allowing for more internal space.

  • Recommendation : Before purchasing, you must measure the pin hole distance of the old hydraulic cylinder. Blindly purchasing may result in installation failure.

3. Are there any differences in the piston rod diameter for this specification of hydraulic cylinder? What is the effect of different diameters?
Piston rods of this specification are typically available in two sizes: 1.125 inches (1-1/8") and 1.25 inches (1-1/4") .
  • Thicker piston rod (1.25") : provides greater resistance to bending (column load capacity) and is safer under high pressure or complex conditions with lateral horizontal thrust.

  • Effect on pulling force : The thicker the piston rod, the smaller the effective area when the cylinder retracts (pulls back). Therefore, the pulling force of a 1.25" rod will be slightly less than that of a 1.125" rod, but the retraction speed will be slightly faster.

4. On what specific mechanical equipment can this type of hydraulic cylinder be used?
Because its 2.5-inch bore provides very strong thrust, combined with its moderate 12-inch stroke, it is widely used in:
  • Heavy agricultural implements : three-point suspension adjustment for medium and large tractors, round balers, and medium-sized reversible plows.

  • Industry and Construction : Dump truck/cargo box tipping, mini loader bucket lifting.

  • Forestry and Logistics : Push plate control for heavy-duty log splitters (Log Splitter), hydraulic lifting platform.

5. How can the service life of this hydraulic cylinder be extended through routine maintenance?
  • Keep the dust seal and piston rod clean : After each shutdown or operation in a dusty environment, clean the dirt and debris from the piston rod to prevent it from wearing down the seal when it retracts.

  • Apply grease regularly : The pin holes of the clevises usually have grease fittings, which should be greased regularly to prevent dry friction between metal from causing deformation of the pins and holes.

  • Check hydraulic oil quality : Regularly check if the oil has turned black or contains metal shavings. Dirty oil entering the cylinder will directly scratch the inner wall of the cylinder, leading to internal leaks and premature cylinder failure.

6. Do you provide OEM or customized services

Yes, we support OEM and customization, including nameplate, packaging, and specific performance requirements. Send us your drawings or specifications for evaluation.
