A 5″ Bore x 30″ Stroke Log Splitter Hydraulic Cylinder is a heavy-duty, double-acting hydraulic component designed for log splitters, capable of withstanding up to 3,500 PSI. The 5-inch bore (inner diameter) and 30-inch stroke (piston travel distance) enable it to generate significant force, approximately 58,900 pounds, making it ideal for splitting large, tough logs. Constructed with a high-tensile, honed cold-drawn tubing and a chrome-plated rod, it ensures durability and corrosion resistance, even in extreme conditions. Features include a welded clevis mount for secure attachment, a 2-inch rod with a tapered end (often 1.75″ with a 9\/16″ or 1″ pinhole), and 1\/2″ NPT ports for easy hydraulic system integration. Polyurethane seals and wear rings enhance longevity, and they\u2019re compatible with gas log splitters, electric log splitters, 3-point tractor log splitters, and skid steer log splitters.<\/p>\n
This log splitter hydraulic cylinder is a direct replacement for many OEM double-acting, clevis-mount cylinders. Common OEM no-modification-needed replacement for: Tractor Supply Co., Huskee, SplitMaster, Oregon, SpeeCo, and many others.<\/p>\n
A hydraulic cylinder for a log splitter works by converting hydraulic pressure into linear mechanical force to split logs efficiently. It is a key component in hydraulic log splitters and operates on the principles of hydraulics, where pressurized fluid is used to generate force and motion.<\/p>\n The hydraulic log splitter cylinder consists of several parts: the barrel, piston, piston rod, seals, and end caps. The cylinder is connected to the hydraulic pump, which supplies pressurized hydraulic fluid (usually oil). This fluid is routed into the cylinder through ports, applying pressure to either side of the piston.<\/p>\n When hydraulic fluid enters the base end of the cylinder (behind the piston), it pushes the piston forward. This forward motion extends the piston rod, which is attached to the splitter wedge or blade. The immense force generated by the hydraulic pressure drives the wedge into the log, splitting it apart. The amount of force depends on the size of the cylinder\u2019s bore (diameter) and the pressure of the hydraulic system. For example, a larger bore generates more splitting force.<\/p>\n To retract the piston rod, hydraulic fluid is redirected to the opposite side of the piston while the fluid from the base end is released back to the reservoir. This motion resets the splitter for the next log.<\/p>\n The log splitter hydraulic cylinder\u2019s reliability, power, and precision make it ideal for splitting logs of various sizes, ensuring consistent performance in both residential and industrial applications.<\/p>\n When considering the purchase of a log splitter hydraulic cylinder, it is important to evaluate key specifications such as:<\/p>\n A 5″ Bore x 30″ Stroke Log Splitter Hydraulic Cylinder is a heavy-duty, double-acting hydraulic component designed for log splitters, capable of withstanding up to 3,500 PSI.
