  • Advanced Surface Treatment for Superior Durability
    The cylinder body, piston, and stop ring undergo gas nitriding + post-oxidation, resulting in exceptional wear resistance, self-lubricating properties, and corrosion resistance. This advanced metallurgical treatment ensures long-term performance even under harsh operating conditions.

  • Enhanced Corrosion Protection & High Visibility
    The external surface of the cylinder is finished with high-quality paint over a blackened (oxidized) coating, providing optimal corrosion protection and high visual identification – ideal for job sites where equipment recognition and rust prevention are critical.

  • Reinforced Nylon Thread Protector
    A heavy-duty nylon external thread protector safeguards the cylinder’s outer ring threads from impact, debris, and damage, preserving thread integrity for repeated installations.

  • High-Strength Lifting Eye – Heavy Tonnage Models
    Large-tonnage cylinders come equipped with a G80 grade lifting eye, certified for high-strength lifting and safe handling during transport and positioning.

  • Hidden Vent Port – Faster, Smoother Retraction
    An integrated concealed vent hole allows rapid and stable spring return, eliminating trapped air and ensuring smooth, consistent retraction cycles.

  • Polyurethane Seals – Longer Life, Better Performance
    Premium polyurethane seals offer outstanding sealing efficiency, high abrasion resistance, and extended service life – even under frequent cycling and high-pressure operation.

  • Piston Wiper Seal – Reduced Contamination Risk
    Equipped with a dedicated piston wiper (dust seal) that minimizes ingress of dirt, dust, and moisture, significantly extending hydraulic cylinder service life.

  • Ready-to-Install Interfaces
    Pre-machined external ring threads, piston threads, and base mounting holes enable quick and simple connection to accessories and mounting fixtures – no custom machining required.

  • Flexible Mounting – Any Position, Any Direction
    The RC Series cylinders can be used in all mounting orientations and positions (vertical, horizontal, or angled), offering maximum application versatility.

  • Standard Quick-Connect Coupler & Dust Cap
    Every cylinder is supplied as standard with a CEJN quick-connect coupler plus a protective dust cap, enabling fast, leak-free connection to hydraulic power sources.

  • Removable hard saddle to prevent damage to the piston when in contact with rough surfaces.
  • Dust seal, preventing external impurities from entering the interior of the cylinder and causing contamination or damage.
  • Exhaust port to expel air, preventing air resistance from causing jerky motion and noise, ensuring stable operation of the hydraulic system.
  • The Swedish CEJN coupler and dust cap ensure safety throughout.
  • The cylinder body is treated by gas nitriding plus post-oxidation process,followsed by external baked painting to deliver superior corrosion resistance
  • The gas-nitrided stop ring is used to absorb eccentric load and prevent plunger over-travel.
  • The piston rod adopts gas nitriding treatment,featuring excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
  • High-pressure seal to achieve zero internal leakage in the hydraulic system, reducing wear and extending service life.
  • Powerful spring for rapid return stroke.
