Hydraulic Cylinders work for pulling or tensioning.
Hydraulic pull cylinders come in 2 or 5 ton capacities with 5 in. of stroke. Made of high quality steel, cylinders incorporate threaded piston and base ends for easy attachment of tooling or accessories. They have plated pistons for corrosion resistance, and 3/8 in. NPT ports with quick disconnect couplers. Optional clevis attachment is available for piston or base end of pull cylinders.

OSP Series Thermocylinder can be used for door opening and transfer in extreme temperature applications. It uses heat transfer and thermodynamic principles to allow coolant to pass through entire length of cylinder. As coolant passes through, heat energy is absorbed and barrel behaves similar to water jacket. This keeps heat away from cylinder bore where plastic and rubber parts are used.
