Steering Hydraulic Cylinders Supplier - Marine Propulsion

Steering hydraulic cylinders in marine propulsion systems control the direction of vessels by converting hydraulic pressure into mechanical motion. These cylinders are critical for precise maneuverability and stability in watercraft. They are designed to withstand harsh marine environments and high loads.

Steering Hydraulic Cylinders for Marine Propulsion:

Size: Typically 1.5" to 12" bore diameter, stroke lengths up to 60"

Grade: ISO 6020/6022, DIN/ISO 6431/6432 standards

Viscosity: ISO VG 32 to VG 68 hydraulic oil

Buoyancy: Neutral or slightly positive, depending on seal design

Material: Carbon steel (piston rod), stainless steel (cylinder body), nitrile or polyurethane seals

Pressure Rating: 1500 to 3000 PSI (100 to 200 bar)

Operating Temperature: -20°C to +80°C (-4°F to +176°F)

Corrosion Resistance: Chrome-plated rods, marine-grade coatings

Mounting: Trunnion, clevis, or flange types

Seals: High-pressure lip seals, wipers for saltwater protection

Yes, Steering Hydraulic Cylinders and Marine Propulsion systems typically comply with maritime standards such as ISO, SOLAS, and classification society rules like ABS, DNV, or Lloyd's Register.
