About this product
Tie Rod Type Hydraulic Cylinders are the industry-standard design for stationary industrial applications, combining heavy-duty construction with excellent serviceability. The cylinder barrel, end caps, and mounting flanges are held together by high-tensile tie rods that run the length of the cylinder.
This construction method offers a key advantage: the cylinder can be completely disassembled in the field by removing the tie rod nuts, allowing seal replacement, barrel inspection, and piston servicing without specialized tools or equipment. This makes tie rod cylinders the preferred choice for applications where ongoing maintenance access is important.
KBR Engineers manufactures tie rod cylinders with precision-machined end caps, high-strength tie rods with rolled threads, and foot mounting arrangements for secure, vibration-resistant installation. The cylinders feature precision-honed barrels, chrome-plated rods, and double-lip sealing systems for reliable performance under continuous industrial duty.
Our tie rod cylinders are widely used in hydraulic presses, manufacturing machinery, automation systems, and industrial equipment where a robust, serviceable, and precisely controlled cylinder is required.
