Single Acting Hydraulic Cylinders

Single-acting hydraulic cylinders are hydraulic devices that generate linear motion using hydraulic pressure in one direction only. These cylinders are commonly used in various applications where a pushing or pulling force is required in a single direction.

The cylinder barrel is a cylindrical tube that houses the piston and other internal components. It is usually made of high-strength steel to withstand hydraulic pressures.The piston is a movable component within the cylinder barrel. It separates the cylinder into two chambers: the pressure chamber and the return chamber. The piston is typically sealed with a piston seal to prevent fluid leakage.
