Description
Low Price 36kg hydraulic Right Forklift Lifting Cylinder 18.1MPa
The operation of the right lifting cylinder would be similar to the lift cylinder on the left side of the main lift cylinder in a forklift. When the operator activates the lift control lever or joystick, hydraulic fluid is directed to both the left and right lifting cylinders. The pressurized fluid causes the piston rods to extend, pushing against the mast and raising the forks and the load.
It's important to note that the terminology and configuration of hydraulic cylinders can vary among different forklift models and manufacturers. Therefore, it is recommended to consult the specific forklift manual or the manufacturer's guidelines for accurate information regarding the right lifting cylinder and its maintenance procedures.

How do the lift cylinder and tilt cylinder work in a forklift?
1. Lift Cylinder: The lift cylinder, also known as the main lift cylinder or lift mast cylinder, is a hydraulic component responsible for raising and lowering the mast and forks of a forklift. Here's how it works:
- Hydraulic System: The lift cylinder uses hydraulic power from the forklift's hydraulic system. The system comprises a hydraulic pump, control valves, hydraulic fluid, and various hydraulic lines and hoses.
- Lifting Function: When the operator activates the lift control lever or joystick, hydraulic fluid is directed from the pump to the lift cylinder. This pressurized fluid enters the cylinder, causing the piston rod to extend and push against the mast. As a result, the mast and forks rise.
- Counterbalance: Forklifts often have a counterbalance mechanism, such as a counterweight, to offset the weight of the load and provide stability during lifting. The lift cylinder works with the counterbalance to raise and lower the load safely and efficiently.
- Load Capacity: The lift cylinder's capacity is designed to handle specific load weights specified by the forklift's manufacturer. Exceeding the rated load capacity can lead to instability and potential safety hazards.
2. Tilt Cylinder: The tilt cylinder also called the mast tilt cylinder or tilt mechanism cylinder, controls the tilting motion of the mast and forks. It allows the operator to adjust the angle of the divisions for various load-handling tasks. Here's how it works:
- Hydraulic System: The tilt cylinder operates using hydraulic power from the forklift's hydraulic system, similar to the lift cylinder.
- Tilt Control: When the operator activates the tilt control lever or joystick, hydraulic fluid is directed from the pump to the tilt cylinder. The pressurized fluid enters the cylinder, causing the piston rod to extend or retract, which tilts the mast and forks forward or backward.
- Fine Control: The operator can precisely control the tilt angle of the forks through the control lever or joystick. This allows for accurate positioning of the load, improved stability, and safe transport.
- Safety Features: Forklifts are typically equipped with safety features related to the tilt cylinder operation. These may include tilt speed control, load backrests, and tilt lock mechanisms to prevent unintentional tilting or ensure the forks remain fixed during transport.
The lift and tilt cylinders play crucial roles in the functionality and versatility of a forklift. They use hydraulic power to provide lifting and tilting capabilities, allowing for efficient material handling and precise load positioning. Proper operation, regular maintenance, and adherence to load capacity limits are essential to ensure safe and efficient forklift operations.
Some general maintenance tips for hydraulic cylinders on forklifts
Regular Inspection: Perform routine visual inspections of the hydraulic cylinders to check for any signs of damage, leaks, or excessive wear. Look for cracks, dents, or corrosion on the cylinder body and piston rod. Inspect the seals and connections for any signs of leakage.
Fluid Level and Quality: Regularly check the hydraulic fluid level and ensure it is at the recommended level. Monitor the liquid quality and inspect for any contaminants or discoloration. Contaminated or degraded fluid should be replaced promptly per the manufacturer's guidelines.
Seal Inspection and Replacement: The seals on hydraulic cylinders are critical in preventing fluid leakage. Inspect the cylinder seals for wear, damage, or signs of deterioration. If any seals are compromised, they should be replaced promptly to maintain proper cylinder function.
Lubrication: Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for lubricating the hydraulic cylinder components. Proper lubrication helps reduce friction and wear, ensuring smooth operation. Pay attention to lubricating the piston rod and any pivot points associated with the cylinder.
Cylinder Operation: Operate the hydraulic cylinders smoothly and avoid excessive force or sudden impacts during lifting or tilting operations. Abrupt or jerky movements can strain the cylinders and lead to premature wear or damage.
Cleanliness: Clean the hydraulic cylinders and surrounding areas from dirt, debris, and other contaminants. Regularly clean the cylinders to prevent the accumulation of land that can cause damage to seals and other components.
Professional Maintenance: Schedule regular maintenance and inspections with qualified technicians or follow the service intervals recommended by the forklift manufacturer. They can conduct more thorough checks, perform necessary repairs or replacements, and ensure the hydraulic system is in optimal condition.

TestingTo further improve product performance, and establish the leadership position of our hydraulic cylinder in the industry, our company and zjimee jointly established a Comprehensive performance laboratory of hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic valves, and hydraulic pumps; the lab is computer-assisted testing, using electro-hydraulic control technology, the test conditions preset by computer, which improves the test accuracy and system versatility, and the experimental data.
The automatic collection is realized through the application of sensors, and the output data, such as the internal leakage and load efficiency of the cylinder or the valve, are directly processed by the
computer and converted to standard units (ml/min; %). At the same time, to ensure the working safety of the hydraulic system, the state monitoring function is carried out for key performance parameters, such as "oil temperature monitoring, liquid level monitoring, filter device monitoring," etc. Among them, the hydraulic cylinder test stand can test the performance of "load efficiency" and "internal leakage" by readings. At the same time, it is equipped with a grating ruler measuring instrument, which meets the requirements of all test items of hydraulic cylinder products in the national standard
