EP-TF1004.55.8 Hydraulic Lift Cylinder

Technical Data

Product Features

Raydafon’s hydraulic lift cylinders—we build ’em to keep up with the grind. No fancy jargon here; these are workhorses designed for the real world, whether you’re lifting heavy loads on a construction site or adjusting equipment in a warehouse. Let’s talk about what makes them stand out.

Start with how they’re built. We use thick, high-grade steel for every part—no cutting corners. That means when you’re using a heavy-duty hydraulic lift cylinder to hoist pallets or a scissor lift hydraulic cylinder to raise workers, it won’t bend or wear thin, even after months of daily use. It’s the kind of toughness you notice when you’re in a rush and can’t afford a breakdown.

Movement? Smooth as can be. These cylinders don’t jerk or stall. Whether it’s a telescopic hydraulic lift cylinder tucking into a tight space on a harvester or a standard model lifting a conveyor, the motion stays steady. That matters when you’re trying to line up a load perfectly or keep equipment running safely—no surprises, just consistent action.

Mounting? We’ve seen enough odd setups to know one size doesn’t fit all. Clevis mounts for when you need a little wiggle room, trunnion mounts for arc movements, flanges for rock-solid stability—take your pick. Even had customers ask for custom brackets, and we’ll weld those right on. It’s all about making sure your hydraulic lift cylinder fits your machine, not the other way around.

Ports are another thing we don’t mess around with. Need SAE ORB threads? Got ’em. Prefer NPT or BSPP? No problem. And if your hoses are routed weird, we’ll move the ports—top, bottom, side—whatever keeps the lines from kinking. Installing a hydraulic lift cylinder for a dump truck or a small industrial lift? We’ll make sure the ports play nice with your existing setup.

Seals? They’re the unsung heroes. We use thick polyurethane or Viton® layers—wiper seals to brush off dirt, rod seals to stop leaks, buffer seals to handle pressure spikes. Ever had a cylinder leak oil all over your workspace? Not with these. Even in dusty fields or rainy yards, the seals hold tight. Means less time cleaning up and more time getting work done.

And for the little things that matter: finishes and coatings. Most folks stick with the standard—tough enough for regular use. But if you need something extra, like a stainless steel hydraulic lift cylinder for wet environments (think marine or food plants), we’ve got that. Want it to match your machinery’s color? We’ll mix paint to your exact shade. It’s not about looking pretty—it’s about making the cylinder blend in and last longer.

At Raydafon, we don’t overcomplicate it. A good hydraulic lift cylinder does its job, day in and day out, without fuss. That’s what we deliver.

Work Principle

Raydafon’s hydraulic lift cylinders—they work on a simple idea, really. No complicated tricks, just using fluid to make things move. Let me explain it like you’re standing next to one, watching it do its job.

It starts with hydraulic fluid. You pump that fluid into the cylinder through a little opening, and as it fills up, it pushes against a piston inside. That piston’s like a thick disk that fits tight inside the cylinder’s barrel. When the fluid pushes hard enough, the piston moves—either shoving the rod out (so the cylinder gets longer) or pulling it back in (so it gets shorter). That’s how a heavy-duty hydraulic lift cylinder heaves a stack of crates up, or how a telescopic hydraulic lift cylinder tucks itself into a small space on a machine.

But here’s the key: if that fluid leaks out, nothing works. So every Raydafon hydraulic lift cylinder has tough seals—around the piston, where the rod comes out, all over. These seals keep the fluid trapped, so the pressure stays high enough to move the piston. That’s why a scissor lift hydraulic cylinder can hold a worker up in the air without dropping an inch—those seals lock the pressure in.

Valves are like the on-off switches here. They control when the fluid flows in and out, and how fast. Need to lift something slow and steady? The valves let just a little fluid through. Got a big load that needs moving quick? They open up to let more fluid rush in. That’s how a hydraulic lift cylinder for farm equipment can gently lower a plow into the dirt, then snap back up fast when you hit a rock.

So it’s pretty straightforward: fluid comes in, pressure builds, piston moves, rod goes in or out. Seals keep the pressure in, valves control the speed. That’s all there is to it. Whether it’s a small hydraulic lift cylinder for a warehouse tool or a tough one for construction gear, that’s how Raydafon’s cylinders get the job done.

About Raydafon

Raydafon’s home base is Zhejiang Province—an industrial hotspot in China—where we’ve built our reputation making hydraulic cylinders and steering parts that get the job done. We don’t overcomplicate things: our goal is to craft hydraulic solutions that fit the real-world needs of modern machinery, no fluff, just dependability. From the production floor to the final design, we stick to what works—so our products, especially the hydraulic lift cylinders we’re known for, hold up under pressure, no matter the job.

We work with all sorts of industries: farm equipment, construction gear, forklifts, ships, and off-road vehicles. Each one has its own quirks, and we’ve learned to adapt. Need a precision steering cylinder for a forklift? We’ve got it. A double-acting cylinder for a construction crane? That’s standard. What about a heavy-duty hydraulic lift cylinder for a marine winch or a compact hydraulic lift cylinder for a small harvester? We build those too—tailored to how they’ll actually be used, not just some generic spec.

Quality isn’t a buzzword here. We follow ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949 standards to the letter, so every OEM hydraulic cylinder that leaves our shop meets the tough rules of the industry. It’s not just about checking boxes; it’s about making sure when a client bolts our cylinder onto their machine, they can trust it to run strong for years. That’s the kind of reliability that keeps folks coming back.

Custom work is where we really shine. No two machines are exactly alike, so why should their cylinders be? We tweak bore sizes, adjust stroke lengths, swap out mounting styles, and even change surface treatments to fit what you need. Whether it’s a telescopic hydraulic lift cylinder that needs to fit in a tight space on a dump truck or a corrosion-resistant hydraulic lift cylinder for a fishing boat, we’ll make it work. And it’s not just new builds—we supply aftermarket parts too, so if you need a replacement hydraulic lift cylinder for an old piece of equipment, we can match it.

Our stuff’s used in over 30 countries now—on farms, in factories, on ships, and in the rough stuff like mining or logging. We’ve earned our spot as a go-to hydraulic lift cylinder supplier by keeping it simple: build good products, stand behind them, and don’t make clients jump through hoops. At Raydafon, we’re here for businesses that need cylinders that don’t just work today, but keep working tomorrow, next month, and next year.
