Product Description

Simplex RC Series Hollow Plunger Hydraulic Cylinders offer the versatility needed to take on a wide range of applications. The hollow plunger design allows bars or rods to be pulled through the inside bore to enable pulling and pushing applications - ideal for tensioning cables, bolts, and pulling sleeves or bearings.

Inside the cylinder is a high-strength return spring for plunger retraction and stop rings for blow out protection. The cylinder exterior is finished with an enamel coating to extend cylinder life, and a wiper protects the inner cylinder assembly from dirt, moisture, and other contaminants.
