What Are Hydraulic Cylinder Accessories?

Enerpac Cylinder Accessories are specialized components that enhance the functionality, flexibility, and safety of Enerpac hydraulic cylinders. These parts are designed to:

• Improve force distribution

• Protect cylinder components

• Enable safe and secure load handling

• Extend reach and connectivity

• Facilitate precise pressure monitoring

• Adapt cylinder mounting for various orientations

By selecting the right accessories, users can adapt a standard hydraulic cylinder into a task-specific solution for lifting, pushing, pulling, or pressing.

Most Common Enerpac Cylinder Accessories

Here’s a breakdown of some of the most popular accessories offered by Enerpac, and what they’re used for:

1. Hydraulic Hoses & Couplers

• Hoses: Rated for 10,000 psi, Enerpac’s high-pressure hoses are essential for safe, reliable hydraulic connections.

• Couplers: Quick-connect fittings allow for fast, leak-free setup and changeover between pumps and cylinders.

2. Saddle Plates & Tilt Saddles

• Flat Saddles: Protect the piston from damage and distribute force evenly across the load.

• Tilt Saddles: Accommodate angled loads to reduce side loading and increase stability during lifts.

3. Pressure Gauges & Adapters

• Gauges: Allow operators to monitor real-time hydraulic pressure to ensure safe, consistent force application.

• Adapters: Connect gauges directly to pumps or manifolds for better control.

4. Mounting Adapters & Base Plates

• Used to securely fix cylinders in horizontal or vertical positions. Essential for repeatable, precise operations.

5. Extension Rods & Threaded Attachments

• Extend reach or connect cylinders to loads in pulling or tensioning applications.

• Common in post-tensioning, maintenance, and press fit tasks.

6. Lock Rings & Retaining Nuts

• Found on lock nut cylinders, these components mechanically hold loads in place for extended periods.

7. Manifolds & Valves

• Control the flow of hydraulic fluid to one or multiple cylinders. Critical in synchronized lifting or multi-point operations.

Where and How Are Accessories Used?

Enerpac accessories are used in every industry that relies on custom hydraulic systems:

• Construction & Infrastructure – For multi-cylinder bridge lifting systems, shoring equipment, and load testing rigs

• Manufacturing & Maintenance – Used with presses, bearing pullers, and heavy assembly lines

• Power & Utilities – To align turbines, tension anchor bolts, and lift transformer bases

• Oil & Gas – For remote site toolkits and modular rig installation

• Shipbuilding & Rail – For controlled lifting, pressing, and mobile repair tasks

• Mining & Steel – In extreme environments where tool safety and reliability are critical

By choosing the correct accessories, operators reduce the risk of failure, improve performance, and meet specific load or positional requirements without improvisation or unsafe workarounds.
