Custom Hhdraulic cylinders generate linear force and motion from hydraulic fluid pressure. Dalton custom hydraulic cylinders are double acting in that the hydraulic pressure may be applied to either the piston or rod end of the cylinder to generate either extension or retraction force respectively. Hydraulic cylinders custom by Dalton Hydraulic are used in many mechanical applications wherever high linear forces are necessary. With a relatively small hydraulic motor, a large Dalton custom hydraulic cylinder may generate tens of tons of force, due to almost unlimited mechanical gain capability and inherent stability of hydraulic systems.
