This is a CAT Cylinder Group for Tilt, a hydraulic actuator essential for controlling the tilt angle of equipment attachments like buckets or blades. Built to meet stringent OEM standards, it provides reliable and powerful operation, outperforming worn or leaking cylinders. Operators may notice a loss of tilting force, slow or uncontrolled movement, or visible hydraulic fluid leaks from the cylinder when this part begins to fail.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Flush hydraulic lines before fitting new components. Use only manufacturer-specified hydraulic fluid. Check O-rings and backup rings for correct orientation. Bleed air from system after installation.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
Initial symptoms of a failing tilt cylinder include a reduction in the force available for tilting or a noticeable drift when holding a position. If left unaddressed, the cylinder may develop significant leaks, leading to uncontrolled movement of the attachment and potential operational hazards. Continued operation with a compromised cylinder can also lead to contamination of the hydraulic system.
Ensure the hydraulic system is properly depressurized and that all fluid lines are clean before connecting them to the new cylinder. Avoid forcing mounting pins into place, as this can damage the cylinder's bores or the pins themselves.
Inspect the hydraulic fluid and filter for contamination, and check the condition of the hydraulic lines connected to the tilt cylinder.
