Standard bore sizes up to 12" with pressure ratings of up to 3000 PSI, depending on mount and stroke. All Higginson cylinders are available with non-standard options such as stainless steel, high-temp seals or use with exotic fluids. We offer all NFPA mounts in addition to custom mounts, which we proudly manufacture in one of the industry's quickest lead times.
1.5" to 12" Bore
Flange mounted cylinders are mounted via square or rectangular flanges attached to the head. Heavy duty ME5 mounts use extra material on the head itself for mounting. Flange mounts ensure the thrust force of the cylinder remains in the centre of the rod, as long as there is no rod misalignment.
Rectangular Head Flange Mount. Force is transferred in a straight line, and force is absorbed along the cylinder centreline. We recommend MF1 mounts are used in tension and mounted with flange face against machine support.
Full Head Flange Mount. Force is transferred in a straight line, and force is absorbed along the cylinder centreline. ME5 mounts can be used at full pressure in tension or compression applications.
Square Head Flange Mount. Force is transferred in a straight line, and force is absorbed alone the cylinder centreline. MF5 mounts can be used at full pressure in either tension or compression applications.
