The Large Split Piston is a specialised hydraulic cylinder component designed for large-bore cylinders and heavy-duty applications, where reducing friction and easing assembly is critical. Unlike solid pistons, split pistons are made in two or more segments, allowing them to be fitted around the piston rod without the need for extensive machining or disassembly of the cylinder.
Large split pistons are built to withstand high pressures, side loads, and continuous operational cycles. They often feature wear rings, sealing grooves, or bearings, which reduce friction, prevent fluid leakage, and protect the cylinder walls. This design ensures long service life, smooth operation, and reliable force transfer, even under the most demanding conditions.
Large split pistons are widely used where heavy loads and large bore diameters make traditional solid pistons impractical. Their segmented design simplifies installation and maintenance, reducing downtime and making them a preferred choice for custom and high-capacity hydraulic cylinders.
