What does double acting mean here?

Hydraulic pressure drives the rod out and back in, so it pushes and pulls under power. A single-acting cylinder would rely on gravity or a spring to return.

How much force does a 2-inch bore at 3000 psi make?

About 9,400 pounds of push at full pressure. The pull side is lower because the rod takes up part of the piston area.

Will the cross tube fit my splitter?

Only if the pin spacing and tube diameter match your mount. Measure the bracket gap and pin size before ordering, since the welded tubes cannot be moved.

What ports does it have?

SAE6 ports, so you need hoses and fittings with matching SAE6 ends. Check your valve and hose ends before plumbing it in.

Can it be resealed when it leaks?

No. The welded body is not serviceable, so a leaking cylinder is usually replaced rather than rebuilt.

What oil volume does the 36-inch stroke need?

Roughly 0.98 gallons to fill the bore over the full stroke, plus the rod side. Make sure your reservoir and pump can supply it.

Our take on the 2" Bore 36" Stroke Double Acting Welded Cross Tube Hydraulic Cylinder 3000psi

A double-acting welded hydraulic cylinder with a 2-inch bore and 36-inch stroke, rated to 3000 psi. The cross tube mounts let it pin to a frame or implement without clevis brackets. It suits log splitters, lifts, presses and farm implements that need a long, slow push and pull. Against tie-rod cylinders it is more compact and cheaper to build, but the welded body cannot be opened for resealing, so a worn cylinder is replaced rather than rebuilt.

Pros

Double acting: powered in both directions
3000 psi rating suits most small-tractor and splitter systems
Welded cross tube mounts pin directly to a frame
Long 36-inch stroke for full-length pushes
Compact welded body with no tie rods to loosen

Cons

Welded body cannot be rebuilt; resealing means replacement
Cross tube mounts fix the pin spacing, so check it against your frame
SAE6 ports need matching hoses and fittings
Long stroke at 2-inch bore moves slowly and needs decent oil volume
