Description
When your hydraulic cylinder rod is bent, scored, or just plain worn out, you know it immediately—jerky operation, fluid leaks, and equipment that won’t hold its position. If your hydraulic cylinder is losing power or won’t hold steady under load, the problem might be a worn-out rod. This threaded connection point takes a beating every time your cylinder extends and retracts, and when it’s worn, you’ll notice it right away—wobbly attachments, loose connections, or worse yet, a complete failure when you need your equipment most. This replacement rod gets your Cross DB cylinder back to smooth, reliable operation.
What You’re Getting
- Precision-machined 1-1/4 inch diameter rod built to Cross specifications
- Chrome-plated finish that resists corrosion and provides smooth cylinder operation
- 16-inch ASAE stroke length for standardized compatibility across equipment brands
- Proper thread pitch and dimensions for secure clevis attachment
- 2500 PSI rating that handles the high-pressure demands of modern hydraulic systems
Built for Real Farm Work
This rod is designed to work with Cross hydraulic cylinders found on implements and equipment throughout the farm. Whether you’re working with a front-end loader, running a hay baler, or operating a grain cart, these cylinders handle the heavy lifting on everything from 2-inch bore cylinders up to 2-1/2 inch units with various stroke lengths. The 3-inch bore size makes this a popular choice for mid-size equipment that needs solid lifting power without the bulk of larger cylinders.
Made to Last
This isn’t some lightweight replacement part—it’s built to the same standards as your original. Cross manufactures these components to handle the constant stress of hydraulic systems, so you can count on it holding up through busy seasons and tough conditions. The chrome plating extends rod life by protecting against moisture, dirt, and the wear that comes from constant use in dusty field conditions.
Installation Notes
Installation is straightforward—just thread it onto your cylinder and secure it with the appropriate clevis and pin. Make sure to check the thread pitch and pin hole size before ordering, and always replace both the clevis and pin together for the best fit and longest life. If you’re rebuilding the whole cylinder, now’s a good time to replace the seals too—a fresh rod deserves fresh seals to go with it.
