Air Cylinder

Air Cylinder

This is a heavy-duty 5-inch bore air cylinder used to open and close the large aggregate gates on concrete batch plants from manufacturers like Stephens and Johnson-Ross. Its robust construction is designed to withstand the harsh, abrasive environment of a concrete plant. Plant operators would need this part to replace a worn or failed cylinder to ensure reliable and consistent material flow from the aggregate bins. Key features include a special nitro-carburized piston rod that offers significantly longer life against corrosion than standard chrome plating, and a low-friction nylon piston wear ring to prevent metal-to-metal contact and ensure smooth operation.

Key Features

• 5-inch bore diameter for heavy-duty gate actuation.
• Nitro-carburized piston rod for superior corrosion resistance and extended life.
• Low-friction nylon piston wear ring eliminates metal-to-metal contact.
• Rod lip seal designed as a U-cup for zero leakage at various pressures.
• Designed for heavy-duty applications in concrete batch plants.
