Pistons are key elements in hydraulic cylinder assemblies, responsible for converting hydraulic energy into linear mechanical motion. Fitted inside the cylinder barrel and attached to the piston rod, pistons transmit force from pressurised hydraulic fluid to drive machinery, ensuring smooth, reliable, and efficient movement.
Pistons are designed to withstand high pressures, side loads, and continuous cycles, while maintaining precision and durability. Many pistons incorporate sealing grooves, wear rings, or bearings to reduce friction, prevent fluid leakage, and protect the cylinder walls, ensuring a long service life and consistent performance.
Pistons are widely used where reliable force transmission and smooth operation are critical. Depending on the application, pistons can be single-acting, double-acting, or designed with specialised ports and grooves to accommodate complex hydraulic circuits.
At Hydraulic Megastore, our Cylinder Pistons are available in a variety of sizes, bore diameters, and designs. Manufactured to strict quality standards, they provide precision, durability, and optimal performance, ensuring hydraulic systems operate efficiently under the most demanding conditions.
