Our WRC cylinders are proven performers for agricultural machinery that needs to work tirelessly at critical times during the seasons. Serving primarily the agriculture sector among others for over 30 years, their simple yet highly effective and robust threadless head design makes our WRC cylinders very quick to assemble and service.
The WRC head is fully floating and completely concentric. It won’t unwind, rotate, loosen or seize up. The tube is full-thickness throughout, giving it high mechanical strength. Simple design with plenty of power and reliable performance for when you need to get the job done.
Hydraulic cylinder tubing. Very high quality internal bore finish for maximum seal life and minimum leakage.
Fully machined from solid bar for heavy-duty durability.
Centrifugally cast, close-grained cast iron, giving maximum bearing surface in minimum length. Accurate sizing and close tolerance for maximum and consistent seal life.
This number is stamped into the barrel and records build detail. Quoting this number enables traceability.
Standard 11/2”- 3 1/2” bore Steel one piece piston, internally threaded for high strength. Heavy Duty 4”- 6” bore Steel two piece piston.
Manufactured from medium carbon steel, precision ground. Hard chrome plated and polished to give maximum seal life and good corrosion resistance.
Piston seals 2”- 6” cylinders Heavy-duty unit seal with anti-extrusion rings and wear rings. No metal-to-metal contact. Piston seals 1.5” cylinders Crown seal and wear ring, WRC style. Shaft seal Heavy-duty polyurethane pressure seal for long life. Head Static sealing O-ring with contoured face back-up ring. Wiper Heavy-duty polyurethane wiper scraper.
The wire retaining clip (WRC) offers a unique and highly effective threadless head retaining design, a round stainless steel wire retainer. This makes them very quick and easy to assemble and service. When reliability in the field directly affects profits, you need the muscles of the machine to perform. The WRC range won’t let you down.
