Cylinder Kits

Each cylinder kit contains all the essential components necessary to fully assemble high-performance cylinders. In each box you will receive: gland, piston, end cap, lock nuts, seals and ports.
Honingcraft supplies all free cutting steel materials used in the manufacture of hydraulic cylinders. We supply cold drawn, seamless tubing, chrome bars and rods, cast-iron and semi finished products like cylinder barrels and rods. Honingcraft stocks hydraulic cylinder kits. Our kits are readily available off the shelf to suit the gland and pistons you have.

Honingcraft stocks clevises individually or as part of our cylinder kit range.

The main function of the cap is to enclose the pressure chamber at one end. The cap is connected to the body by means of welding, threading, bolts, or tie rod. Caps also perform as cylinder mounting components [cap flange, cap trunnion, cap clevis]. Cap size is determined based on the bending stress. A static seal / o-ring is used in between cap and barrel (except welded construction).

A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, reciprocating pumps, gas compressors and pneumatic cylinders, among other similar mechanisms. It is the moving component that is contained by a cylinder and is made gas-tight by piston rings. In an engine, its purpose is to transfer force from expanding gas in the cylinder to the crankshaft via a piston rod and/or connecting rod. In a pump, the function is reversed and force is transferred from the crankshaft to the piston for the purpose of compressing or ejecting the fluid in the cylinder. In some engines, the piston also acts as a valve by covering and uncovering ports in the cylinder.
