The Power Team RPG2802 is a high-capacity, single-acting hydraulic cylinder rated at 280 tons with a 1.75 in stroke, engineered for heavy structural lifting and load-securement applications that require mechanical load holding. Its integral locking collar allows the piston to be mechanically secured once extended, enabling the cylinder to support full capacity loads without relying on hydraulic pressure, improving safety in long-duration or unattended lifts. Designed for 10,000 psi operation, the cylinder features a precision-machined steel body, heavy-duty bronze bearings, and a hardened piston assembly to maintain structural rigidity and alignment under extreme compressive loads.
With its short stroke and high tonnage rating, the RPG2802 is suited for controlled jacking, bridge and deck elevation, structural shoring, heavy equipment lifting, and large-scale industrial maintenance where secure load support is critical. The spring-return mechanism provides automatic piston retraction after load release, streamlining repositioning during multi-point lift sequencing. Its robust construction, low-profile geometry relative to its tonnage class, and mechanically locking capability make the cylinder effective in demanding field conditions where stability, safety, and high force output must be maintained with minimal operational complexity.
