Enerpac BRC106 Compact Hydraulic Cylinder Single Acting

Product Description

The ENERPAC BRC106 is a compact, single-acting hydraulic cylinder built for industrial and trade applications where space is limited but force output is non-negotiable. Constructed with a steel body, this cylinder delivers reliable hydraulic actuation in tight-clearance environments. Single-acting operation means hydraulic pressure extends the ram while a spring or external load returns it. The BRC106 supports both horizontal and vertical mounting orientations, giving technicians flexibility when fitting the cylinder into machinery, fixtures, jigs, or structural assemblies. At 21 pounds, it is a substantial unit suited for stationary or semi-permanent installations.

This cylinder is appropriate for use in industrial maintenance, fabrication shops, and heavy-trade service environments. Typical applications include holding, clamping, pressing, and lifting operations where a compact hydraulic unit is required. The horizontal and vertical mount compatibility makes the BRC106 adaptable to a wide range of equipment configurations. Hydraulic technicians and millwrights are the primary installers, though mechanical contractors with hydraulic system experience also work with this product class regularly.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or millwright familiar with hydraulic circuit safety procedures. Depressurize and bleed the hydraulic system fully before disconnecting or installing any hydraulic component. Ensure all fittings and port connections meet the pressure rating of the cylinder and the system. Follow the equipment manufacturer guidelines and applicable OSHA and ASME standards for hydraulic machinery when mounting and commissioning this cylinder.
