Industries & Applications
Click on the buttons below to learn more about the industries and applications that use hydraulic cylinders manufactured by Fisher Hydraulics.
Earth Moving
This is tough, dirty work and requires a hydraulic cylinder capable of working day after day, year after year. Due to the environment, cylinders must be highly engineered to ensure contamination is not introduced into the functionality.
Truck Cranes
Hydraulic cylinder requirements vary from simple, single acting steering applications to double counterbalance valves capable of holding a load in the case of a system failure.
Log Splitter
Cylinders in this market are designed for field use and ease of operation in the field. This segment is very cost driven and must be designed with this in mind.
Turf Management
Hydraulic cylinders for use as mower deck lifts to industrial mowers mounted on extendable arms to reach out or up for trimming everything from grass to trees.
Material Handling
Safety is paramount in material handling because so many applications are as much about the people working in the vicinity as it is about the material being moved.
Trailers
This segment of the industry very diverse. Hydraulic cylinders range from larger bore lift and tilt cylinders to small door cylinders on a hopper grain trailer.
Agriculture
As equipment size and system pressures increase, more robust designs are required in agriculture all of the time. Design challenges also include the dirty environments and the various chemicals the cylinders are exposed to in the field.
Aerial Work Platforms
Man-lift application cylinders must be designed to ensure operator safety. We take that responsibility seriously and design to the maximum safety factor.
Railroad
This type of cylinder is designed for a high cycle application. Typical head designs include thread cap or bolt on designs for retention in a high vibration environment.
