Genuine Metaris® Trunnion Mount Telescopic Cylinders

3 and 5 Stage Single-Acting Cylinders

Genuine Metaris MH series trunnion mount telescopic cylinders are engineered for rugged reliable operation. With major design improvements over other competitors' cylinders like a low friction dual lip rod seal and having all stages chrome plated and roller burnished for smoother operation, increased scratch and impact resistance, rust/corrosion and fretting resistance and greater stability. Our special low friction dual lip rod seal also has many benefits including reduced running friction for smoother and faster operation, no mis-staging, no seal adjustments are necessary, no compression set like standard V-packing, longer seal life than V-packing and a better operating temperature range. Our MH series single acting telescopic cylinders are fit, form and function interchangeable with other manufacturers' such as: Hyco®, Parker® and Custom Hoist®.
