Enerpac RC2512 Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinder 25 Ton

Product Description

The ENERPAC RC2512 is a single-acting portable hydraulic cylinder built for heavy-duty lifting, pushing, and pressing applications in industrial and construction environments. The cylinder features a solid steel plunger with a 2.25-inch rod diameter and delivers controlled linear force through hydraulic pressure, returning by gravity or load when pressure is released. With a retracted length of 16.75 inches and a maximum extended height of 29 inches, it provides a 12.25-inch stroke suitable for a wide range of positioning and lifting tasks. Licensed hydraulic technicians, millwrights, and maintenance professionals typically specify this cylinder for high-force service work.

The RC2512 belongs to the widely used RC Series of single-acting hydraulic cylinders. It is suited for use in maintenance bays, fabrication shops, construction sites, and heavy equipment service operations where a portable, self-contained cylinder is required. The plunger includes a 1-1/2-16 internal thread measuring 1 inch in length for attaching saddles or extensions, and a 3-5/16-12 collar thread for mounting or securing the cylinder body during operation. The unit is designed for use with a compatible single-acting hydraulic hand pump or power unit.

Compatibility

Designed for use with single-acting hydraulic pump and power unit systems operating at the rated system pressure for the RC Series. Consult the ENERPAC RC Series specifications to confirm pump and hose compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by a qualified hydraulic technician or millwright familiar with high-pressure hydraulic systems. Relieve all system pressure and depressurize the hydraulic circuit completely before connecting or disconnecting the cylinder. Ensure the cylinder is positioned on a stable, level surface rated for the applied load, and never exceed the rated capacity of the cylinder or support structure. Inspect all hose fittings and connections for leaks before applying full load pressure.
