📘 What Are Hydraulic Lock Nut Cylinders?
Hydraulic lock nut cylinders are hydraulic lifting cylinders equipped with an integrated threaded lock nut that mechanically supports the load after lifting.
Once the desired lift height is achieved, the lock nut is tightened against the cylinder body, transferring the load from hydraulic pressure to a mechanical support system. This allows the load to remain safely supported without relying solely on hydraulic pressure.
Lock nut cylinders are commonly used in critical lifting projects where long-term load support is required.
