Choosing hydraulic cylinders for the application
Hydraulic cylinders are specified around the force required, stroke, closed height, available space and the way the load will be supported and controlled. The pump, hoses, couplers and any manifolds also need to form a compatible system.
Force and stroke
Provide the load, number of lifting points and the movement or stroke required.
Available space
Send the closed-height limit, working envelope and support-point dimensions.
Hydraulic system
Tell us whether a pump and other hydraulic components are required as part of the quotation.

What information is needed to select a hydraulic cylinder?
Send the load, number of lifting points, required stroke, closed height, available space and how the cylinder will be supported.
Can Durham Lifting quote a complete hydraulic jacking system?
Yes. Include the cylinder requirements and operating method so compatible pumps, hoses, couplers and manifolds can be considered together.
Send the application details you have and the Durham Lifting team can review what is needed for a quotation.
