- What is this cylinder rated for in tons?
- The listed specs give dimensions and oil capacity but no tonnage or pressure rating. Ask the seller for the rated capacity before using it near its limit, and never exceed the rating stamped on the cylinder.
- How much stroke does it have?
- It measures 4.74 in collapsed and 6.36 in extended, so the stroke is about 1.6 in. That suits short push-and-hold jobs, not long-travel lifting.
- What fits the threaded plunger?
- The plunger has a 3/4-16 internal thread, 0.63 in deep. That takes standard 3/4-16 bolts and adapters, so you can bolt on a pad, spreader or custom tool.
- Can I mount it in a fixture or press frame?
- Yes. The 2-3/4-16 collar thread lets you thread the cylinder into a matching mount. Check that your frame or fixture has that thread before buying.
- Is it worth it over a name-brand cylinder?
- For occasional light work, the low cost and threaded plunger make it a reasonable pick. For daily production use or critical lifting, a brand with published ratings and rebuild kits is the safer choice.
- When is the price lowest?
- No price history was provided for this item, so no cheapest period can be named. Compare current store prices before buying.
