Cargo unloading boom
cylinders. This special order
involved manufacturing 14" bore
boom cylinders, 12" bore jib
cylinders and 8" bore stinger
cylinders which were then
mounted on equipment to
unload bulk cargo on the Ohio
River. Each cylinder was built
to ABS specs and includes triple
chrome plated cylinder rods and
bodies coated with marine-grade
paint.
Hydraulic axle boosters.
A necessity on trailers haul-
ing extremely heavy loads, these
custom hydraulic boosters
manufactured by us are used to
equally distribute load weights
over the axles. The cylinders
help assure over-the-road safety
and extend the useful service
life of the customer’s trailers.
Steel plant latch cylinders.
These custom cylinders are
used to actuate a latch system
on melt equipment in a steel
mill located in the Northwest.
The cylinders incorporate high
temperature seals and have an
11" bore with 1" stroke. A
special engineering effort was
needed to utilize the available
space.
