Double Acting Cylinder

Pin Mounting Cylinder

Pin eyes at one or both ends absorb misalignment and drop in fast. Standard on mobile equipment.

Pin Mounting Cylinder

Technical specifications

Pin Mounted Hydraulic Cylinders feature drilled mounting eyes at one or both ends of the cylinder, secured to the machine structure with through-pins. This simple yet effective mounting arrangement allows the cylinder to pivot at its attachment points, accommodating angular misalignment during the stroke.

Pin mounting is one of the most versatile cylinder mounting methods, suitable for both mobile and stationary applications. The pivot action at the pin allows the cylinder to self-align with the load path as the geometry changes during extension and retraction, preventing the buildup of destructive side loads.

KBR Engineers manufactures pin mounted cylinders with precision-drilled mounting eyes, hardened through-pins, and optional grease fittings for long-term bearing maintenance. The cylinders feature precision-honed barrels, chrome-plated piston rods, and premium sealing systems for reliable performance in demanding environments.

Pin configurations include fixed-eye, swivel-eye, and cross-tube options. Custom pin diameters, eye dimensions, and cylinder specifications are available to match your equipment requirements exactly.
