Product Overview
At KASI, we supply high tonnage double acting hydraulic cylinders for rent and sale across Canada and Alberta. These cylinders are engineered for demanding lifting and positioning applications where force is required in both extension and retraction strokes.
Hi-Force double acting high tonnage cylinders provide superior performance compared to single-acting models by applying hydraulic force in both directions. This design ensures faster operation, improved precision, and the ability to handle complex tasks in multiple industries.
Key Features:
- High Tonnage Capacity: Built to lift and move heavy industrial loads.
- Double Acting Design: Hydraulic pressure applied in both extension and retraction
- Versatility: Suitable for lifting, clamping, punching, and positioning.
- Durability: Designed for long life in demanding environments like construction, mining, and steel works.
