What Is a Welded Cylinder?

Welded cylinders are cylinders in which the barrel is directly welded to the end caps, and on the other end, the main tube is welded directly to the base plug; there are also cross tubes that are welded to the piston end. These welded elements eliminate the need for tie rods and strengthen the cylinder overall.

Welded Cylinder Advantages & Disadvantages

There are quite a few advantages to using welded cylinders, as well as a noticeable disadvantage.

Welded hydraulic cylinders are not only consistent and reliable but are also much more durable than other types of cylinders. They can also be custom-engineered to fit specific applications. Other advantages include:

 Highly cost practical and compact construction;

 Superior seal packages;

• Aesthetically pleasing and simple look, they blend well into the surrounding equipment in which they have been installed;

• Achieving great bearing lengths if needed.

There biggest disadvantage to consider before choosing to use welded cylinders is that these cylinders are rather complicated and are significantly more difficult to repair without expert help. Our team has been working with welded hydraulic cylinders, as well as a vast range of other hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders

These cylinders come in a handful of and are used in different industries, 

Hydraulic Severe-Duty Welded Cylinders

Hydraulic severe-duty welded cylinders can withstand a whopping 5,000 pound force per square inch of pressure, and have larger bore sizes and increased wall tubing, making them the ideal choice for more extreme mill applications.

Hydraulic Heavy-Duty Welded Cylinders

Hydraulic heavy-duty welded cylinders also have the capability to take 3,000 pound force per square inch of pressure, but their bore sizes make them applicable for a great range of industries, including manufacturing, waste, mining, and more.

Hydraulic Medium-Duty Welded Cylinders

Hydraulic medium-duty welded cylinders are a great choice for a wide range of industries including aviation, agriculture, materials, and more! Built to withstand a slightly lower pressure, medium-duty hydraulic cylinders remain a high-quality solution for many applications.
