Value Collection PS-MH-HPC1-116 Hydraulic Cylinder

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PS-MH-HPC1-116 is a portable, single-acting hydraulic cylinder built for heavy-duty lifting, pressing, and forcing applications in the field or shop. Single-acting operation means hydraulic pressure extends the plunger while a spring or external load retracts it, making this cylinder well suited for use with a hand pump or air-driven pump unit. It carries an oil capacity of 25.08 cubic inches and a rod diameter of 1.63 inches. The lowered height of 12.64 inches and a maximum extended height of 20.63 inches give technicians meaningful stroke for a wide range of service tasks. At 18.59 pounds, it is portable enough for mobile service work yet built for substantial load demands.

This cylinder is commonly used in industrial maintenance, mechanical contracting, automotive service, and heavy equipment repair. Single-acting portable cylinders of this configuration are typical on bearing presses, flange spreaders, pipe bending setups, and general-purpose shop press applications. The plunger internal thread size of 1-8 and collar thread of 2-3/4 - 16 allow attachment of standard saddles, extensions, or custom tooling to match specific job requirements. This unit is appropriate for both shop-fixed and field-portable setups where a self-contained cylinder is needed without a dedicated hydraulic power unit.

Key Features

• Single-acting design extends under hydraulic pressure and retracts via spring return or load, simplifying pump requirements
• 25.08 cubic inch oil capacity supports full stroke delivery with a standard hand or air pump
• 1.63-inch rod diameter provides structural rigidity under off-center and heavy axial loads
• Plunger internal thread (1-8) and collar thread (2-3/4 - 16) accept standard hydraulic tooling accessories
• Lowered height of 12.64 inches with a maximum height of 20.63 inches for approximately 8 inches of usable stroke
• Portable at 18.59 pounds, suitable for field service and mobile repair environments

Compatibility

Designed as a portable single-acting hydraulic cylinder compatible with standard hydraulic hand pumps, air pumps, and electric pump units that deliver hydraulic fluid via a standard coupler fitting consistent with this cylinder class.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified hydraulic equipment technicians or millwrights familiar with hydraulic cylinder safety practices. Before connecting or disconnecting hydraulic lines, relieve all system pressure completely and ensure the pump is in the neutral or release position. Never exceed the rated operating pressure for this cylinder class, and inspect all fittings, hoses, and saddles for damage before each use. Position the cylinder on a stable, level surface and align the load directly over the plunger centerline to avoid side-loading the rod.
