Requirements and material section of hydraulic cylinder barrel
The required hydraulic cylinder barrel/honed tube is the very important part of hydraulic cylinder , and sometimes the direct acting component of hydraulic cylinder (when piston rod or plunger is fixed); the barrel, end cover and piston (plunger) form a sealed chamber for containing pressure oil and driving the load for acting; thus the barrel has requirements for strength, rigidity and sealing as below: (1) The cylinder barrel should have sufficient strength to prevent permanent deformation under long-term rated operating pressure and short-term dynamic test pressure. (2) The barrel should have sufficient rigidity to prevent bending caused by lateral force imposed by the piston and reacting force during installation. (3) Reliable seal: The grade of dimensional tolerance and accuracy of geometric tolerance of cylinder inner surface, piston seal and supporting ring should be designed rationally to ensure reliable se...
