Sale and manufacture of hydraulic cylinders in all sizes

Hydraulic cylinders perform extremely heavy work. As the most important drive elements in hydraulics, they convert the pressure energy of the hydraulic fluid into mechanical energy. Cylinders can transmit very high forces while producing uniform and precise movements. HANSA‑FLEX sells a wide range of single- and to double-acting standard cylinders and manufactures customised hydraulic cylinders up to 8,000 mm in height.

Hydraulic cylinders for all fields of application

Order standard cylinders now from the HANSA‑FLEX online shop

Our online shop has numerous single- and double-acting plunger cylinders up to 200 bar with standardised dimensions and, if required, mounting elements on the rod and base.

  • Permissible temperature: -15 °C to +80 °C
  • Various sealing materials (NBR, Viton, PTFE)
  • High-strength steel piston rod (200 h resistance in NSS test)

Customer-specific manufacture of new cylinders

HANSA‑FLEX manufactures hydraulic cylinders as replacement parts, prototypes or new product lines to your individual requirements as one-off, small batch or series manufactured items. The cylinders, which are designed for the intended application and use standardised components, provide an attractive price-performance ratio combined with easy procurement of spare parts.

  • Various pressure ranges up to max. 350 bar
  • Comprehensive advice, creation of 3D models
  • Customer-specific materials, surface treatments and paint finishes

Purchase hydraulic cylinders from the fluid specialists

In its own manufacturing facilities, which have a high level of vertical integration, HANSA‑FLEX manufactures high-quality hydraulic cylinders and offers very good price-performance ratios with impressive delivery times, even for special articles.

  • Poetry in motion

    Low-friction operation produces soft start and smooth movements

  • Long service life

    High-strength piston rods made from carbon steel alloy absorb the hardest shocks

  • Easy servicing

    Replaceable sealing bushes mean servicing is quick and productivity remains high

  • High availability

    Perfectly matched cylinder tube seals prevent leaks, even under pressure shocks

First-class cylinders with the best price-performance ratio

Comprehensively tested, high-quality cylinders

Manufactured out of high-strength steel or, if required, stainless steel, all HANSA‑FLEX cylinders meet the highest quality standards and undergo thorough testing on modern test benches.

  • Extensive test processes including test report
  • Pressure, leakage and function tests in accordance with standards
  • Setting of sensors and valve technology
  • Supplied ready to install

Your hydraulic cylinder in your choice of colours

Our customised cylinders not only match your technical requirements; we also paint them so that they blend in perfectly with the rest of your machine or system.

  • Painted in various colours of the customer’s choice
  • Corrosivity category up to C5-M
  • Available as one-off, small batch or series produced products

Surface treatment for maximum corrosion protection

The piston rod material used for HANSA‑FLEX hydraulic cylinders has a corrosion resistance of up to 1000 h verified in salt spray (fog) tests performed in accordance with ISO 3768, class 9 ISO 4540, depending on the material grade and surface coating.

  • Steel (Ck45) hard chrome plated
  • Steel (20MnV6) hard chrome plated
  • Stainless steel (1.4057) hard chrome plated
  • Steel (20MnV6) nickel plated and hard chrome plated
  • Steel (42CrMo4V) surface-hardened and hard chrome plated

Everything from a single source

HANSA‑FLEX manufactures systems and cylinders under one roof. This allows us to offer our customers a perfectly matched overall system with an attractive price-performance ratio.

  • Cylinders designed to match the hydraulic unit
  • Manufacture of hydraulic systems including all components
  • Installation by HANSA‑FLEX Industrial Service if required
  • Tests performed during and after bringing into first use

Integrated sensors and valve technology

We equip hydraulic cylinders with integrated valve technology and sensors for additional safety functions, precise positioning, trouble-free driving of different movement axes or for automation of movement sequences.

Hydraulic cylinders with integrated displacement measuring systems

We equip cylinders with displacement transducer systems for precise positioning, actuating and control movements. A continuous position signal supplies precise real-time data about the cylinder movement.

  • Precise reporting of the cylinder position and speed
  • Displacement measuring systems sourced from a renowned manufacturer
  • Wide choice of sensor type (including digital, analogue, capacitive)
  • Cylinders of any size can be manufactured
  • Reliable signal generation under all conditions

Hydraulic cylinders with inductive limit switches

Position switches are a simple and cost-effective alternative to linear displacement transducers where the movement of a piston rod needs to be determined. Inductive, pressure-resistant proximity switches are attached in the end position of the hydraulic cylinder. If the piston reaches one of the two end positions, the relevant proximity switch transmits an electronic signal.

  • Reliable and precise position determination
  • Contactless, wear-free switching
  • Precise end position polling and high repeat accuracy

Hydraulic cylinders with valve technology

Protect people and machines! We offer hydraulic cylinders with integrated valve technology for even better safety. The safety measures can reliably ensure braking of the cylinder movement and prevent unintentional lowering, even if a hose line has failed.

  • Valves can be installed in the cylinder base or on the cylinder
  • Various load-holding and releasable check valves
  • Experienced fluid specialists configure the valve technology in-house
