\"GrainThe grain tank lifting cylinder is a precision-engineered hydraulic component at the heart of modern combine harvesters. Responsible for raising and lowering the grain tank cover or extension flap, it must perform under sustained pressure, repeated cycling, and the unpredictable vibration loads of field operation. UK arable farms \u2014 from the flat fens of Lincolnshire to the rolling chalk downland of Hampshire \u2014 push harvesting equipment to its limits during the narrow seasonal window. A cylinder that fails mid-harvest does not just slow output; it stops it entirely. This is why our HCYY11112016 grain tank lifting cylinder is manufactured to exceed, not merely meet, standard operating tolerances, giving operators genuine confidence through every harvest rotation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How the Grain Tank Lifting Cylinder Works<\/h2>\n

\"Grain<\/p>\n

The HCYY11112016 operates on a single-acting or double-acting piston principle \u2014 hydraulic fluid is supplied under pressure to the full-bore side, extending the piston rod and raising the grain tank cover through a mechanical linkage. When pressure is released or reversed, the rod retracts smoothly under controlled flow. The working pressure ceiling of 16.7 MPa provides more than adequate force to lift loaded tank extensions even on heavily burdened machines, while the 24.5 MPa burst rating delivers the safety margin that UK field machinery regulations and OEM quality standards demand.<\/p>\n

The cylinder body is manufactured from seamless cold-drawn steel tubing, internally honed to Ra 0.4 \u00b5m for consistent seal life across wide temperature swings \u2014 critical in Britain’s damp autumn harvesting conditions. The piston rod is hard-chrome plated (minimum 20 \u00b5m depth) then ground and polished, resisting the corrosion and abrasion that dusty threshing environments generate. Wiper seals at the rod end are fitted with polyurethane dust exclusion lips to keep chaff and grit away from the working seals, and internal O-rings are NBR compounds rated from -25\u00b0C to +100\u00b0C. Every unit is hydraulically pressure-tested at the factory to 1.5\u00d7 maximum rated pressure before despatch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Why Operators Choose This Cylinder<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

Oversized Safety Margin<\/h3>\n

The 24.5 MPa burst pressure is 46% above working pressure \u2014 a genuine engineering buffer, not a datasheet footnote. Pressure spikes from rough terrain or rapid cycling will not compromise the barrel or seals.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Corrosion-Resistant Finish<\/h3>\n

Hard-chrome rod plating and phosphate surface treatment on the cylinder body hold up to the salt-laden coastal air experienced in areas like the Lincolnshire and Norfolk fens during autumn harvest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Dimensional OEM Compatibility<\/h3>\n

The 823 mm installation distance and standard clevis mounting pattern allow direct-fit replacement on a wide range of combine models without bracket modification \u2014 saving workshop time during the critical harvest season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Low Weight, High Output<\/h3>\n

At 18 kg, the HCYY11112016 keeps unsprung mass minimal while still delivering the full force output required. Lighter cylinders reduce stress on mounting brackets and pivot pins, extending service life across the whole linkage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nWhich agricultural machinery brands in England and Scotland can the HCYY11112016 grain tank lifting cylinder be fitted to?<\/summary>\n
\n

The HCYY11112016 is dimensionally compatible with a number of combine harvester brands where the OEM cylinder uses the same bore (\u03a665), rod (\u03a635), and 607 mm stroke specification. UK customers have successfully fitted this model to machines manufactured by Claas, John Deere, New Holland, and Case IH where the grain tank linkage dimensions match. Because OEM specifications can vary by year and regional configuration, we always recommend verifying dimensions against your specific machine before ordering. Our technical team is available to cross-reference against OEM part numbers upon request.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\nCan I get a custom grain tank cylinder with a different stroke or bore size if my combine harvester has non-standard hydraulic fittings?<\/summary>\n
