CF50 Flat Body Hydraulic Cylinder – 50 Ton, 0.63″ Stroke, Single Acting – PowerX CF-Series
High tonnage meets low height in the PowerX CF50 Flat Body Hydraulic Cylinder, delivering 50 tons of lifting force in a compact, single-acting spring-return design. Built for tight-clearance applications that demand high-pressure performance, this low-profile hydraulic cylinder (also known as a pancake jack or ram) is perfect for lifting, leveling, pressing, and alignment tasks across construction, mining, industrial, and heavy-equipment maintenance environments.
Rated to 10,000 PSI (700 bar), the CF50 Low Height Cylinder provides smooth, consistent power and superior stability under heavy load. Its hardened alloy-steel body resists distortion, while the chrome-plated, grooved plunger ensures smooth movement without the need for a saddle. A built-in spring-return system allows fast and reliable retraction after pressure release, boosting productivity and efficiency in repetitive cycles.
The wide, flat base delivers stability during high-tonnage lifting, and dual mounting holes enable secure attachment for fixture or press integration. The 3/8″ NPTF high-flow coupler with protective dust cap ensures quick, leak-free connection to PowerX hydraulic pumps for dependable operation in demanding environments.
Engineered for strength, precision, and longevity, the CF50 combines PowerX reliability with compact, high-pressure performance you can count on.
Power this cylinder with PowerX high-pressure hydraulic pumps and power units, including Air Over Hydraulic Pumps, Electric Hydraulic Pumps, and Hydraulic Hand Pumps for consistent, reliable 10,000 PSI performance.
