Rod clevises are mechanical components used to connect the piston rod of a hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder to another mechanical component, such as a valve, actuator, or linkage. They are designed to provide a pivot point or connection between the piston rod and the other component, allowing for some degree of angular or rotational movement.
They typically have a U-shaped design with two arms that are attached to the piston rod and the other mechanical component, respectively, and a clevis pin that passes through the arms and provides a pivot point. They can be made of different materials, such as steel, stainless steel, or aluminium, depending on the specific application and environmental conditions.
Proper installation and maintenance of rod clevises are important to ensure safe and reliable operation of the hydraulic or pneumatic system. The clevis pin should be properly inserted and secured with a retaining clip or other mechanical fastener to prevent any disconnection or separation of the connected components. Regular inspection and maintenance can help detect any damage or wear to the clevis and other components of the system.
