Ever-power has established itself as a premier industrial hydraulic cylinders through consistent quality and responsive support.
Product Overview
The nan optimizes the 50mm bore area and 25mm rod annulus relationship. This geometry produces predictable force in both extension and retraction, eliminating jerky motion. The multi-lip seal ?? PTFE-bronze wiper, PU U-cup, and nitrile O-ring ?? maintains leak-free operation from arctic cold to tropical yards. The substantial 50mm bore handles large-capacity forklifts and container handlers.
Maintenance intervals depend on duty cycle severity. Under normal warehouse conditions with clean fluid, inspect rod surface and wiper seal condition every 500 operating hours. Replace seal kit proactively at 4,000 hours to prevent unplanned downtime during critical operations.

Key Features
Balanced Force Geometry
The 50mm ?? 25mm bore-to-rod ratio is optimized to produce predictable push and pull force characteristics. This eliminates jerky steering response during rapid pressure transients when navigating tight warehouse aisles or maneuvering in congested loading dock areas.
Induction-Hardened Core
The 25mm rod core achieves HRC 28-32 through induction hardening prior to chrome deposition. This substrate hardness supports the chrome layer against denting from impact loads during dock operations, pothole traversal, and rough terrain encountered in outdoor yard applications.
Cleanroom Assembly
Pistons and seals are installed in a controlled environment maintaining particle counts below Class 1000 levels. This prevents airborne contamination from causing internal scoring of precision-honed surfaces and premature seal degradation during initial break-in period.
CMM Verification
Coordinate Measuring Machine inspection confirms all critical dimensions including bore diameter, rod concentricity, stroke length accuracy within ??0.5mm, and mounting hole positional tolerances before release from quality hold.
Ever-power custom hydraulic cylinders expertise reduces downtime for demanding industrial applications.

Working Principle
Through Pascal’s principle, pressurized oil from the gear pump enters the nan’s 50mm bore. At 16-21 MPa typical for forklifts, pressure acts on the piston face creating force proportional to the bore area. The 25mm rod emerges, pivoting the steering linkage through an arc from 135mm stroke and lever geometry. Reversing the wheel switches valve position, pressurizing the rod-side chamber. The differential area means extension force exceeds retraction force.

Applications
The nan is purpose-built for forklift steering systems where precise angular control and rapid response are non-negotiable. Its 50mm bore generates torque to pivot steer wheels through full arc, even when stationary and loaded. Narrow-aisle warehouses benefit from consistent steering feel reducing operator fatigue during long shifts. The unit also suits AGVs where repeatability determines navigation accuracy along defined paths. Marine terminal operations and cold storage facilities particularly value the responsive steering and low-temperature seal performance.

Brand Compatibility
OEM-grade specifications ensure seamless integration with Hyster hydraulic systems at standard flow and pressure parameters. Rod end threads and gland dimensions match original components on Yale and Mitsubishi steer axles, eliminating adapter fittings. Technical datasheets with full dimensional drawings are available for engineering verification and BOM approval before purchase commitment.

How to Select the Right Hydraulic Cylinder
The selection process balances hydraulic system capability with mechanical constraints. Verify these parameters against equipment specs ?? bore 50mm, rod 25mm, stroke 135mm, mounting 495mm ?? considering duty cycle, fluid type, temperature range, and contamination exposure in your application.
- Calculate Forces
Extension: 39N. Retraction: 29N at 20 MPa. Verify these exceed application loads including safety margins for peak conditions. - Check Envelope Dimensions
Mounting 495mm, retracted 360mm, extended 495mm ?? verify against equipment clearances. Rod end must mate with steering linkage without modification. - Evaluate Environment
Temperature range, fluid type, duty cycle, contamination exposure determine seal selection and surface treatment for this 50mm bore cylinder in your specific conditions.

Structural Components
The 50mm barrel serves as pressure vessel and bearing housing ?? honed Ra 0.4??m eliminates separate liner need. End caps provide porting, mounting, and seal retention; torqued with anaerobic sealant against vibration loosening. The floating piston carries the polyurethane U-cup and two bronze-filled PTFE guide bands distributing side loads. The 25mm chrome rod exits through the head-end gland where triple-seal arrangement maintains zero leakage. Vent holes prevent pressure trapping behind the rod seal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to measure for nan?
Measure: extended pin-to-pin, retracted length, 50mm bore, 25mm rod, pin diameter. Stroke = extended ? retracted. Match within ??2mm.
What causes external leaks?
Rod leaks: wiper/rod seal failure or heat damage. Port leaks: loose fittings. Barrel leaks: O-ring wear. Most fixed with seal kit. Persistent leaks need exchange.
