* Pushing force of cylinder at 100 PSI inlet pressure. Pulling force
will be about 10% less due to the displacement of the piston rod. (Use
15% when Oversized Rods are chosen) Note: Actual realizable thrust could
be somewhat lower due to side loading and internal friction. It is best
to oversize you cylinder by about 25% to assure smooth operation.
** To
determine cylinder thrust at other inlet pressures, multiply this factor
times the desired inlet pressure.
†HD1 Cylinders are not rate or approved
for use in a hydraulic circuit where an impulse or pressure spike may
occur.
