Ask A Question

Description & Features

Rated at 5 tons and built to ASME B30.1 standards at 10,000 PSI, the C Series General Purpose Single-Acting Cylinder is a solid-steel, single-acting unit suited for lifting and pressing applications across industrial environments. The chrome-plated piston rod resists wear and corrosion, while an aluminum bronze bearing helps manage off-center load stress. Maximum-sized return springs support faster piston retraction and extended spring service life.

Standard base mounting holes and a 3/8" NPTF female half coupler are included. The cylinder's 0.994 sq in effective area and 5.438-inch extended height define its compact working envelope, and a wide range of threaded accessories is compatible with the piston rod, collar, and cylinder base. Offered by SPX Hydraulic Technologies under the High Force Hydraulics product line, this model is well-suited for maintenance, fabrication, and production press applications.

Question by: Rusty H on Mar 11, 2026, 9:46 PM
How much tonnage can this cylinder handle?
Answer by: Customer Support on Mar 13, 2026, 12:40 PM
This cylinder is rated for 5 tons, conforming to ASME B30.1 standards at 10,000 PSI.
Question by: Marvin B on Aug 19, 2025, 9:06 PM
got base mounting holes on this 5 ton cylinder, or do i need to rig something up?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 20, 2025, 9:54 PM
For the 5 ton model, base mounting holes come standard. That makes it easier to bolt it down for lifting or pressing setups without having to add a separate base mount.
