Double Acting Hydraulic Cylinder

The Helesul double acting hydraulic cylinder is the central component of hydraulic steering systems, three-point hitches, header articulation, planting depth control and arm actuation in tractors, combines, self-propelled sprayers and planters. Wherever precise positioning and force in both directions are required, it is the reference solution.

In agricultural handling and construction equipment — such as loaders, backhoes and forestry winches — the cylinder ensures millimetric control of buckets, booms and stabilizers, even under asymmetric loads. Implement manufacturers use the component to automate previously manual functions, adding value and safety to their products.

In every application, the result is the same: smooth, controlled movements, the ability to hold loads in intermediate positions and faster work cycles, which convert into more hectares operated per day.

The operating principle is based on two pressurizable chambers: hydraulic fluid acts alternately on each side of the piston, producing force in both extension and retraction. This allows positioning, holding and reversing movements with precision, regardless of gravity or load weight.

In practice, the customer gains total control of the implement: constant planting depth, uniform cutting height and responsive steering on any terrain. High-performance seals and the surface-treated rod ensure prolonged sealing, reducing maintenance interventions and hydraulic fluid consumption.

The structural robustness of the assembly — designed for pressures up to 300 bar — ensures safe operation even under load peaks, while the anti-corrosive painting protects the component from exposure to fertilizers, agrochemicals and weather. The result is an asset that preserves its performance for consecutive seasons, with decreasing cost per operated hour.

1. Low Lead Time: Helesul operates with agile manufacturing processes and integrated logistics, ensuring fast and punctual deliveries of the double acting hydraulic cylinder. With strategic component inventory and flexible production, the company drastically reduces the time between order and delivery, preventing production stoppages and ensuring that your operation — or your assembly line — never waits for a critical component. This agility translates directly into competitiveness for the customer.
