Features & Benefits

Piston plates
Piston plates can be screwed into the piston thread of cylinder series YS. They reduce the surface pressure and prevent the pistons from sinking into the ground. Also when using a piston plate in connection with a lifting claw the cylinder must be supported against the load.

Base adaptors and extension tubes
Extension tubes are mounted onto the bottom of cylinders series YS by means of the base adaptor and two hexagon socket screws (screws are included with the base adaptor). The use of extension tubes adds to the versatility of the standard cylinders.

Load-spreading plates
These load-spreading plates are recommended when slim cylinders are used for lifting operations. They prevent the cylinders from falling over and sinking into the ground. Robust steel design with carrying handle.
