The ORBIT Double Acting 100 ton 13” stroke cylinder weighs a mere 90 lbs. Comparable steel models weigh up to 205lbs! Needless to say, in a job like this where the cylinders are constantly being moved and repositioned,
weight plays a critical factor in the choice of cylinder.
- This transformer weighs 120 tons but is moved easily by the ORBIT
Aluminum Jacks.
- 4 Double Acting Jacks were used in series because each jack needed
to be precisely controlled, both separately and together
- In a job like this there is no room for error, that is why the contractor chose ORBIT Double Acting Aluminum 100 ton Jacks
