Enerpac A18 Hydraulic Cylinder Serrated Saddle 5 Ton

Product Description

The ENERPAC A18 is a serrated saddle attachment designed for use with hydraulic cylinders in industrial and shop press applications. The serrated contact surface grips workpieces securely under load, preventing lateral movement during pressing, lifting, or holding operations. This saddle features a 1-1/4 to 11-1/2 thread for installation onto compatible cylinder ram threads and measures 1.5 inches in diameter with a 2-inch overall length. Rated for 5-ton capacity, it handles demanding positioning tasks in maintenance, fabrication, and field service environments. Hydraulic equipment technicians and millwrights are the primary installers of this type of accessory.

This saddle is suited for use in manufacturing facilities, maintenance shops, and field service settings where precise load control is required during hydraulic pressing or lifting operations. The serrated face provides positive grip contact on metal workpieces or structural components. It is a replacement or supplemental accessory part compatible with threaded cylinder ram ends matching the 1-1/4 to 11-1/2 thread specification.
