Welded Clevis Hydraulic Cylinders, Explained

HomeBlogWelded Clevis Hydraulic Cylinders, Explained

Welded clevis hydraulic cylinders are just one of the many types of hydraulic cylinders we offer here at Dalton Hydraulic. These cylinders are used to turn hydraulic energy into linear mechanical motion, and therefore, they’re most commonly used in agriculture, material handling, construction, and industrial applications. The “clevis” part of these cylinders refers to the point on the end that allows the cylinder to be hooked up to other components or machinery.

Welded Clevis Hydraulic Cylinders, Explained

Welded clevis hydraulic cylinders begin to work when hydraulic fluid becomes pressurized and goes into the cylinder. The pressurized fluid will push against a piston, which creates a force that causes the rod within the cylinder to extend. Once the fluid is redirected or released into a different part of the cylinder, the piston then moves backward, and the rod goes back into the cylinder.

In most cases, welded clevis hydraulic cylinders are used in applications where there is a need for linear motion. For example, welded clevis hydraulic cylinders are used in cases where pulling, tilting, pushing, or lifting must occur. You can typically find these types of cylinders being used in dump trucks, excavators, loaders, and a wide range of agricultural equipment.

Welded clevis hydraulic cylinders come in many different sizes, and each has a different stroke length and force capacity. Thanks to these many options, they can be suited to meet any application requirements for nearly any piece of equipment.
