This is a piston body assembly, a crucial component within hydraulic cylinders responsible for containing and directing hydraulic fluid pressure. It is precision-machined from durable materials to withstand high pressures and resist wear, unlike a damaged piston body that may show scoring or deformation. Operators might observe a loss of hydraulic power, slow or erratic cylinder movement, or external hydraulic fluid leaks if this component is compromised.

Never strike bearings directly — use a bearing press or driver set. Heat housing (not bearing) to ease installation. Replace bearings in sets where applicable. Check housing bore diameter before fitting — out-of-round bores destroy new bearings.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
Initial signs of a failing piston body include a decrease in hydraulic system performance, such as sluggish or jerky cylinder actuation. If the damage is significant, external hydraulic fluid leaks may become apparent around the cylinder. Continued operation can lead to internal bypass, further loss of power, and potential damage to the cylinder bore or rod.
Ensure the cylinder bore is meticulously clean and free of any debris before inserting the new piston body. Carefully align the piston body with the cylinder rod to prevent cross-threading or damage to the seals.
Inspect the cylinder bore for scoring, the rod for straightness, and replace all associated seals and O-rings when installing a new piston body.
