Value Collection PS-MH-HPC1-078 Hydraulic Cylinder

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PS-MH-HPC1-078 is a single-acting portable hydraulic cylinder designed for high-force pushing and lifting applications in shop, field, and maintenance environments. It carries 20.7 cubic inches of oil capacity and features a 2.24-inch rod diameter, providing substantial bore area for generating significant tonnage output. The lowered height of 8.62 inches and maximum extended height of 12.64 inches give technicians a usable stroke range suited to confined work envelopes. At 19 pounds, it is portable enough for one-person handling. Millwrights, heavy-equipment technicians, and industrial maintenance crews are the primary installers of this type of cylinder.

This cylinder suits single-acting hydraulic circuits where return stroke is accomplished by gravity, spring, or external load. Typical applications include press work, shaft alignment, bearing installation and removal, structural lifting, and equipment repositioning. The plunger internal thread size of 1-1/2-16 and collar thread of 3-5/16-12 allow attachment of standard hydraulic tooling accessories. The 1.19-inch plunger internal thread length gives adequate engagement depth for threaded saddle attachments or extension pieces.

Key Features

• Single-acting design for use in gravity-return or spring-return hydraulic circuits
• 20.7 cubic inch oil capacity supporting full-stroke extension
• 2.24-inch rod diameter for high contact-area force delivery
• Lowered height of 8.62 inches suits confined or low-clearance setups
• Plunger internal thread at 1-1/2-16 for accessory and saddle attachment
• Collar thread of 3-5/16-12 for secure base or manifold mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use portable cylinder for single-acting hydraulic circuits requiring a 2.24-inch rod diameter and standard threaded plunger interface.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified hydraulic or mechanical technicians familiar with high-pressure hydraulic systems. Always depressurize the hydraulic circuit completely before connecting or disconnecting the cylinder. Ensure all threaded connections are fully engaged and torqued according to the hydraulic fitting manufacturer specifications before applying system pressure. Follow applicable OSHA and equipment-specific safety standards when using hydraulic cylinders for lifting or pressing operations.
