Chrome layer: min 20um or according to customer's requirements
Surface roughness: Ra <0.2um

READY-TO-ASSEMBLY
PISTON BARS


Ready-made piston rods contribute to major savings in the manufacture of hydraulic cylinders. A rational machinery park manufactures competitive, assembled piston rods. A careful quality control means that the piston rods can be taken directly to the final assembly.

Friction welded eyelets givse the piston rod maximum strength and the joint has the same strength as the base material. Rolling threads also give the rod the highest possible strength, which extends the life of the piston rod. Induction-hardened rods and chrome layer provides the best possible wear protection and ability to withstand bumps and blows. With Fricweld's method, we enable the chrome layer to be placed closer to the joint, which among other things gives shorter cylinder dimensions. Ultrasound testing is performed according to the customer's specifications.
