Precision Cast Plunger Rod | Special For Agricultural Hydraulic Cylinders | Wear-resistant And Corrosion-resistant Parts

FAQ

1. What makes your plunger rod "special for agricultural hydraulic cylinders"?
Our plunger rods are specifically engineered to combat the unique challenges of farming. This means they are built to withstand extreme abrasion from soil and dust, resist corrosion from fertilizers, chemicals, and moisture, and endure the high-pressure shocks and continuous cycles typical of agricultural machinery.

2. What is the advantage of the precision casting process?
Precision investment casting allows us to create a plunger rod with superior metallurgical integrity, near-net-shape dimensions, and an exceptionally smooth surface finish. This results in fewer stress points, better compatibility with seals, and a foundation that enhances the performance and longevity of our surface treatments, leading to a more reliable and durable final product.

3. How does the wear and corrosion resistance benefit me in practice?
In practice, this means:

• Reduced Downtime: The rod is less likely to fail due to scoring, pitting, or rust.

• Lower Total Cost: You will replace rods and seals less frequently.

• Improved Reliability: Your equipment (tractors, harvesters, etc.) will be more dependable during critical seasons like planting and harvest.

4. What is the standard surface treatment? Can I request a different one?
Our standard surface treatment is Hard Chrome Plating, which offers an excellent balance of wear and corrosion resistance for most agricultural applications. However, we understand that some environments are harsher. We do offer alternatives, such as high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) coatings, which provide even greater abrasion resistance. Please contact our sales team to discuss your specific needs.

5. Are your plunger rods compatible with equipment from major brands like John Deere, Case IH, or New Holland?
Yes, absolutely. We design our plunger rods to be direct replacements for original parts in a wide range of agricultural equipment brands. To ensure a perfect fit, please provide us with the OEM part number, cylinder model, or the precise dimensions of your existing rod when inquiring.

6. Can you manufacture custom-sized plunger rods?
Yes, we specialize in customization. Our standard range covers diameters from 25mm to 200mm and lengths up to 6000 mm. If you require a non-standard size, different material grade, or a unique design feature, we can manufacture it to your exact specifications. Request a quote for custom parts.

7. What is the lead time for orders?
Lead times vary based on order quantity and specifications. For standard off-the-shelf sizes, we can typically ship within 50 business days. For large or custom orders, a more specific timeline will be provided upon order confirmation. We always strive to meet our customers' urgent requirements.
