Cylinders

Reliable tilting

These cylinders are used in the lifting mechanism of tipper vehicles. Metal bearings have been used for this application up to now. However, the damp and dirty working environment the vehicles have to cope with on construction sites or in agricultural applications led repeatedly to problems caused by rusty bearings. For this reason, the metal bearings have now been replaced by particularly sturdy, lubricant-free and durable iglidur® bearings from igus® which can even withstand heavy jolts and blows.
