The RH10010 is a robust 100-ton, double-acting center-hole hydraulic cylinder that in both extension and retraction, making it ideal for push / pull, tensioning, anchor bolt, and cable applications. It features a 10.12-inch stroke, a retracted height of 19.50 inches, and an extended height of 29.62 inches. It gives 106.9 tons of theoretical push force at 10,000 psi, and its (retract) side has (47.1 tons). The outside diameter 8.50 in, and it includes a 3.14 in center hole.
Built for durability and demanding service, the RH10010 includes features such as corrosion-resistant standpipe treatment via Power-Tech, plated piston rods to resist wear, superior packing combinations to minimize leakage, and interchangeable piston head inserts for application flexibility (plain vs tapped connections). A built-in safety feature helps prevent over-pressurization of the retract circuit, and the cylinder uses standard 9796 3/8 in NPTF female half couplers for hydraulic connections. Steel versions from 60 to 200 tons also come with removable carrying handles for easier handling.
The RH10010 is tailored for demanding push/pull or tensioning operations where a through-rod or cable must pass through the piston—use cases include anchor bolt stressing, cable applications, stud forcing, or structural jacking with load reversal. Because it’s double-acting, it offers controlled motion in both extension and retraction without relying on springs. The presence of a safety relief valve in the retract circuit is critical in preventing overpressure damage if retract fluid flow is restricted. As with any high-tonnage cylinder, alignment of load along the axis is essential to avoid side loads that accelerate wear. Maintenance or disassembly should be performed only by qualified technicians, especially given the presence of internal pressure components and the built-in relief valve.
The Power Team RH10010 is a 100-ton capacity, double-acting, hydraulic center hole cylinder engineered for heavy-duty industrial applications that require both push and pull capability. Its 10.12-inch stroke provides substantial travel for tasks such as tensioning, pulling cables, pushing bearings, and removing or installing pins or bushings where force must be applied through a central opening.
