Nio Equipment Double Acting Hydraulic Cylinders provide controlled hydraulic force in both extension and retraction strokes, enabling precise bi-directional movement for industrial machinery, automation systems, material handling equipment, pressing operations, and heavy-duty applications. Unlike single acting cylinders that rely on springs or gravity for return, double acting cylinders use hydraulic pressure on both sides of the piston, delivering full force control throughout the entire stroke in both directions. Manufactured using precision-honed steel tubes, hardened chrome-plated piston rods, high-performance seals, and engineered end caps, these cylinders are built for demanding continuous-duty industrial operations. Standard bore sizes range from 32 mm to 400 mm with stroke lengths from 50 mm to 3000 mm. Custom specifications including non-standard bores, extended strokes, special mounting arrangements, and application-specific rod end configurations are available. Double acting hydraulic cylinders are essential in applications where the load must be moved, held, and returned under full hydraulic control. They are widely used in industrial presses, automated production lines, mobile equipment, construction machinery, material handling systems, and any application requiring repeatable, precise linear motion.

Buying Guide

Overview
Choosing a double acting hydraulic cylinder requires consideration of required force in both directions, stroke length, system pressure, cycle rate, mounting arrangement, and environmental conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a double acting hydraulic cylinder?
A double acting hydraulic cylinder uses hydraulic pressure on both sides of the piston, providing controlled force in both the extension and retraction directions for precise bi-directional linear motion.
When should I choose a double acting cylinder over single acting?
Choose double acting when you need controlled force and speed in both directions, higher cycle speeds, precise positioning, or when gravity or spring return is insufficient for your application requirements.
What bore sizes and strokes are available?
Standard bore sizes range from 32 mm to 400 mm with strokes from 50 mm to 3000 mm. Custom specifications are available for specialized applications.
