The Enerpac RC1006 is a 103-ton, single-acting, general-purpose hydraulic cylinder engineered for heavy lifting, pushing, and maintenance tasks requiring high force and dependable performance. With a 6.63-inch stroke, the RC1006 offers an excellent balance of lifting height and compact form, making it ideal for industrial maintenance, steel fabrication, bridge work, heavy equipment positioning, and construction applications.
RC-TRIO is the next generation of the legendary Enerpac RC-Series single acting hydraulic cylinders. These hydraulic jacks include many advanced features to ensure superior durability, versatility, and productivity.
A pre-tensioned spring provides fast plunger retraction and enhanced productivity. The robust bearing system features composite wear bands and a hardened stop ring to resist side-load which minimizes damage and repairs. The plunger wiper, high-grade polyethylene seals and tough external finishes also help towards an extended service life.
With so many hydraulic cylinder models to choose from, we’re confident you’ll find the perfect match for your applications, and if you already own prior RC-Series cylinders, the good news is the new cylinders share the same familiar dimensions and threads for full compatibility.

Part of Enerpac’s industry-leading RC-Series, this cylinder is built with a high-strength alloy steel body, precision-ground piston, and heavy-duty bearings designed for long service life under rugged conditions. The single-acting, spring-return design provides hydraulic power for extension and automatic return when pressure is released — simplifying operation, reducing setup time, and increasing efficiency in repetitive lifting tasks.
The RC1006 includes Enerpac’s CR-400 high-pressure coupler, a removable grooved saddle for load protection, and high-performance seals designed for 10,000 psi systems. Its durability, reliability, and compatibility with Enerpac pumps make it a trusted choice for demanding industrial environments where precision and high force are essential.
103-ton lifting and pushing force:
High-capacity cylinder built for demanding industrial and construction applications.
6.63-inch stroke:
Offers substantial lifting movement while maintaining a manageable cylinder height.
Single-acting, spring-return operation:
Allows faster setup and automatic retraction when pressure is released, ideal for repetitive lift cycles.
Enerpac RC-Series durability:
Alloy steel construction, precision piston machining, and industrial-grade bearings ensure long-term reliability.
Removable grooved saddle:
Protects the piston and improves load stability across a wide range of jobsite conditions.
Standard Enerpac CR-400 coupler:
Ensures full compatibility with Enerpac 10,000 psi pumps, hoses, and control valves.
General-purpose versatility:
Suitable for lifting, pushing, pulling, pressing, and positioning tasks in harsh environments.
Single-acting (spring return):
Retraction speed depends on the internal spring and the load — not suitable for applications requiring fast hydraulic return.
Must be aligned properly:
Side loading can damage seals or piston surfaces; loads should be kept centered on the saddle.
100-ton+ cylinders are heavy:
Lifting equipment or multiple personnel may be required for safe positioning.
Medium stroke:
While 6.63 in is generous for most lifts, long-travel applications may require RR/RRH series cylinders instead.
Heavy equipment lifting, repair, and positioning
Structural work, bridge jacking, and shoring operations
Steel mill and industrial plant maintenance
Construction lifting and alignment
Pressing and pushing applications requiring controlled high force
Mining, shipyard, and refinery operations where heavy loads must be moved safely and accurately
Set the cylinder on a stable, flat, and load-rated surface.
Use only 10,000 psi-rated hoses, couplers, and pumps compatible with Enerpac systems.
Center the load on the saddle to avoid off-axis damage.
Keep hydraulic hoses protected from pinch points, heat, and sharp edges.
Allow the spring-return system to fully retract without forcing it.
Inspect couplers, seals, and the saddle frequently, especially in high-cycle industrial use.
Follow all Enerpac operating guidelines — at over 100 tons of force, correct setup and alignment are essential for safe operation.
