Hydraulic Cylinders – Single Acting

    
YS - Universal Cylinders
Single Acting with Spring Return
5 to 100 ton
   
These 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 eccentric loading
  • Cylinder body and piston are made from chromium-molybdenum steel and heat-treated
  • Hard-chromium plated piston with replaceable, heat-treated saddle
  • Metric mounting threads on cylinder collar, in the base and piston rod (5 to 30 ton)
  • 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
  
Applications
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, frames presses, etc.
  
  

(Low Height)



(Flat Cylinders)

YLS – Low Height
YFS – Flat Cylinders

Single Acting with Spring Return
10 to 100 ton
   
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 should not be subject to side loading.
   
Features
  • Yale ChroMo Design
  • Operating pressure max. 700 bar
  • Single acting with spring return
  • Low height for tight working areas
  • 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 ton
   
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
  • 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 chromium-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
  • Includes 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 applications.
   
   

YEL – Cylinders

With Safety Lock Nut
Single Acting
30 to 1100 Ton
   

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.
  • Oil port thread: 3/8 NPT
  • Incl. Female coupler half CFY-1
  • Spring assisted return of the piston can be quoted on request up to 340 ton 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 ton
   

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
  • 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 heavy 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 ton
   

Yale pull cylinders are able to create extremely high pulling forces and 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 chromium-molybdenum steel and heat treated
  • Double bronze bearings
  • 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
   
Applications
Ship building, heavy vessel construction, steel construction, civil engineering as well as general repair and maintenance applications where high pulling forces are needed.
