Maxim 218322 Hydraulic Cylinder 2-1/2 In Bore 16 In Stroke
Tie-rod hydraulic cylinder with 2-1/2 inch bore, 16 inch stroke and 2,500 psi rating
- 2,500 psi rating handles demanding hydraulic circuits
- 16-inch stroke extends reach for machine motion
- Ductile iron piston resists wear under load
- Precision honed steel tube ensures smooth rod travel
- Operates from -20 to 220 °F across seasons
Hydraulic Cylinder 2-1/2 In Bore 16 In Stroke
This tie-rod hydraulic cylinder provides linear force for industrial machinery and mobile equipment. The 16-inch stroke and 2-1/2-inch bore suit applications needing medium-range actuation with a 1-1/8-inch rod. It arrives new with pins and clips included for immediate installation.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Rated for a maximum pressure of 2,500 psi, the cylinder maintains sealing integrity across a temperature range of -20 to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. The ductile iron piston and precision-honed steel tube resist wear during continuous cycling. High-tensile tie rods keep the assembly rigid under full working pressure without elongation.
Build Quality And Mounting
The black-finished steel body measures 26-1/4 inches retracted and extends to 42-1/4 inches, defining the fixed mounting points required. Ports use 3/8-inch NPT threads for standard hydraulic hose connections. One-inch diameter pins and supplied clips secure the cylinder to clevis brackets without additional hardware.

Questions about this item
How much heat can the 220-degree temperature rating handle during all-day operation?
The cylinder is rated for continuous use up to 220 degrees Fahrenheit, so it will tolerate the heat generated in typical hydraulic systems running all day.
What hydraulic fittings must I already have to connect the 3/8-inch NPT ports?
You need mating 3/8-inch NPT fittings and compatible hydraulic hose or tubing to plumb the cylinder into your circuit.
Will the 1-inch pin diameter match the clevis brackets on my older equipment?
The cylinder includes pins and clips with a 1-inch diameter, so it will fit existing brackets drilled for 1-inch pins.
