R2806C High-Capacity, Single-Acting, Hydraulic Cylinder 6 in Stroke.

The Power Team R2806C is a high-capacity, single-acting hydraulic cylinder engineered for heavy industrial lifting and pressing operations requiring substantial output force and controlled linear displacement. Rated at 280 tons with a 6 in stroke, the cylinder delivers high load stability through a precision-machined steel body and piston assembly designed for 10,000 psi system pressure. The single-acting configuration utilizes hydraulic pressure to extend the piston, while a heavy-duty internal spring handles retraction, reducing circuit complexity and enabling efficient operation in high-tonnage systems. The cylinder’s large bearing surfaces and optimized load path minimize side-load sensitivity and ensure consistent performance under full-rated load conditions.

The R2806C’s 6 in stroke provides ample travel for structural lifting, heavy-equipment maintenance, press operations, and controlled displacement tasks that demand both force density and rigidity. Its robust build, high-strength alloy construction, and Power-Tech surface treatment deliver enhanced wear and corrosion resistance for long service life in harsh industrial environments. Compatibility with standard 3/8 in NPTF hydraulic connections allows integration with Power Team pumps, manifolds, and control systems. Designed for repeatable, high-load cycling, the R2806C supports mission-critical lifting, positioning, and pressing applications across construction, mining, steel production, and heavy manufacturing sectors.
