Piston Rod Extensions

Piston rod extensions are mechanical components used to increase the effective length of the piston rod of a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder. They are designed to be threaded or bolted onto the end of the piston rod, providing additional length and extension beyond the original length of the piston rod.

They are used in various industrial and mechanical applications, such as in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries, where precise control and positioning of mechanical components are critical. They can be made of different materials, such as steel, stainless steel, aluminium, or other high-strength materials, depending on the specific application and environmental conditions.

Proper installation and maintenance of piston rod extensions are important to ensure safe and reliable operation of the hydraulic or pneumatic system. The extension should be properly threaded or bolted onto the end of the piston rod and securely tightened to prevent any loosening or separation of the connected components. Regular inspection and maintenance can help detect any damage or wear to the extension and other components of the system.
