Hydraulic Cylinders - Single Acting

YS - Universal Cylinders
Single Acting with Spring Return
5 to 100 tonnes
Universal cylinders are designed and manufactured to work in the toughest environments to which this type of equipment is normally subjected.

Robust construction with long guides allow the units to withstand abuse and better tolerate eccentric and side loading, yet is convenient to use with only one quick-release coupler hose connection and a spring return.

Features
Yale ChroMo Design

Operating pressure max. 700 bar

Single acting with spring return

Robust design with long piston bearings to withstand ecentric loading
Cylinder body and piston are made from massive chromium-molybdenum steel and heat treated

Hard-chromuim plated piston with replaceable, heat-treated saddle

Metric mounting threads on cylinder collar, in the base and piston rod (5 to 30 tonnes)

Stop ring can bear full capacity (pressure) and is fitted with dirt wiper

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

YS-50/100 and YS-50/160 with carrying handle

YS-50/320 to YS-100/200 with lifting rings

Appliications

Universal cylinders are designed for all jobs where high forces but compact dimensions are required: e.g. straightening of steel constructions, removing of parts like shafts, axles, lifting, positioning, weighing supporting, testing as well as for all general assembly and repair applications.

Due to the various mounting threads the cylinders can easily be installed in clamping devices, welding fixtures, frame presses etc.



YLS - Low Height and
YFS - Flat Clyinders
Single Acting with spring return
10 to 100 tonnes
These very compact hydraulic cylinders are designed for lifting and positioning jobs as well as all general maintenance applications, where low height, portability and light weight are needed.

These versatile cylinders are found in all industrial areas like steel mills, civil engineering, heavy construction industry, power plants off-shore industries, etc.

Low height cylinders are recommended for all lifting, pushing, levelling, pressing applications especially in tight working areas. Due to their short strokes, flat cylinders shouldnot be subject to side loading.

Features
Yale ChroMo Design

Operating pressure max. 700 bar

Single acting with spring return

Low height for tight working area

Cylinder body and piston made from chromium-molybdenum steel and heat treated

Stop ring can bear full capacity (pressure) and is fitted with dirt wiper

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

YLS-100/55 is equipped with 2 lifting rings

YFS-100/15 comes with a carrying handle

YCS - Hollow Cylinder
Single acting with spring return
12 to 93 tonnes
Due to the centre hole design a threaded rod can be placed through the hollow cylinders so that extremely high pulling forces can be achieved.

Features
Yale ChroMo Design

Operating pressure 700 bar

Single acting with spring return

Large centre hole diameter

Cylinder body and piston made from chromium-molybdenum steel and heat treated

Double bronze bearing of the hard chromuim-plated piston

Metric mounting threads at cylinder body and inside of piston

Interchangeable hardened saddle

Inner and outer dirt wipers

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

From YCS-21/150 with carrying handle

From YCS-57/70 with 2 lifting rings

Applications

Hollow cylinders are used as the power component within hydraulic puller sets, for pre-stressing of anchor bolts, removing of axles, shafts, bushings, extracting of tubes, as well as for heavy duty pulling apllications.




YEL - Cylinders with Safety Lock Nut
Single Acting
30 to 1100 tonnes
Hydraulic cylinders with safety lock nuts are recommended when loads have to remain in the lifted position over a period of time.

The safety lock nut ensures a positive hold in any position and work can be carried out beneath the lifted load.

Hydraulic pressure can be released so that cylinders work like mechanical supports.

Pumps can be separated from cylinders.

Features
Operating pressure 700 bar

Single acting with gravity return

Special guiding bands for ideal piston guiding
Hard-chromium plated piston with trapezoid thread

Over-flow hole ensures a definite piston end stop

Interchangeable hardened saddle

Tilt saddles as an option. Click here for details.

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

Spring asisted return of the piston can be quoted on request up to 340 tonnes capacity

All cylinders with lifting rings

Applications

For all heavy duty jacking applications where a special safety factor is appropriate like lifting and lowering of bridges, supporting of buildings and foundations, jacking up of heavy machines, steel sections, ship modules or similar loads.

Various applications in civil engineering and construction, steel fabrication, power plants, heavy repair and assembly jobs, ship building, off-shore etc.

YEG - High Tonnage Cylinders
Single acting with gravity return
85 to 1100 tonnes
These inexpensive cylinders of series YEG are used for all general lifting applications in any area of industry where heavy loads need to be lifted, lowered, levelled, positioned or supported.

Features
Operating pressure 700 bar

Single acting with gravity return

Special guiding bands for ideal piston guiding

Hard chromium-plated Piston

Overflow hole ensures a definite piston end stop

Interchangeable hardened saddle

Tilt saddles as an option. Click here for details.

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

All cylinders have lifting rings

Applications

Various applications in civil engineering, heavy machinery, steel construction, ship building, soil testing, bridge building and numerous other jobs where ehavy lifting and lowering tasks must be performed and where higher forces must be applied.
YPL - Pull Cylinders and
YPP - With Integrated Hand Pump
Single Acting with Spring Return
10 to 51 tonnes
Yale pull cylinders are able to create extremely high pulling forces an can be controlled precisely by the use of hand pumps or power packs.

In neutral position, pull cylinders are fully extended. As soon as the cylinders are pressurized the forged links are drawn together.

A built-in return spring extends the piston again as soon as the pressure is released.

Features
Yale ChroMo Design

Operating pressure max. 700 bar

Single acting with spring return

Can be operated in all positions (except YPP Hand Pump)
Cylinder body and piston are made from massive chromium-molybdenum steel and heat treated

Double bronze bearings of the hard-chromium plated piston

Stop ring can bear full capacity and is fitted with dirt wiper

Forged replaceable links

With carrying handle and piston protection cover

Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT

Incl. female coupler half CFY-1

Appliications

Ship building, heavy vessel construction, steel construction, civil engineering as well as general repair and maintenance applications where high pulling forces are needed.
