30 Ton Low Profile Hydraulic Cylinder, Single Acting, 2.44″ Stroke

CL30-2 Low Profile Hydraulic Cylinder – 30 Ton, 2.44 Inch Stroke, Single Acting – PowerX CL-Series

Compact, powerful, and built for precision, the PowerX CL30-2 delivers 30 tons of lifting capacity in a low-profile hydraulic cylinder designed for applications where space is limited but force is essential. Rated for 10,000 PSI (700 bar), this single-acting, spring-return cylinder, also known as a hydraulic ram or jack, provides reliable performance for maintenance, construction, and heavy-equipment repair operations that demand high tonnage in tight clearances.

Engineered with a flat, low-height design, the CL30-2 easily fits into confined areas for lifting, pushing, or pressing tasks. The high-strength steel body resists side-load stress, while the precision chrome-plated piston and hardened internal bearing surfaces extend seal life under full load. A built-in return spring ensures fast retraction after pressure release, increasing speed and efficiency during repetitive jobs.

Each PowerX CL-Series low height cylinder is built for durability and field-ready performance, featuring a threaded collar and base mounting holes for secure positioning and easy integration into lifting systems. The 3/8-inch NPTF high-flow coupler allows quick connection to PowerX power units.

Compact enough for confined workspaces yet strong enough for demanding jobs, the CL30-2 low profile jack provides consistent force and long-term reliability—ideal for construction sites, machinery maintenance, industrial plants, and fabrication facilities.

Power this cylinder with our high-pressure hydraulic pumps or power units, like the Air Over Hydraulic Pumps, Electric Hydraulic Pumps, and Hydraulic Hand Pumps.
