Hydraulic Cylinders

Hydraulic cylinders are how hydraulic power turns into real-world motion — pushing, pulling, clamping, lifting, and pressing the loads your equipment is built to handle. Dewald stocks and builds hydraulic cylinders for industrial, mobile, and workholding applications across Northern Indiana and Southwest Michigan. We carry Enerpac and Yuken as primary lines and source standard NFPA tie-rod cylinders, welded mobile cylinders, and specialty custom builds through our manufacturer network. If you’ve got an old cylinder that needs matching, bring it in — we measure bore, stroke, rod, and port configuration at the counter, and we’ll get you the right replacement fast.
A hydraulic cylinder is a mechanical actuator that uses hydraulic fluid pressure to produce linear force and motion. It extends and retracts a piston rod to move, clamp, lift, or press a load — delivering far more force than a pneumatic equivalent of the same size.

Custom builds that fit.

Our engineers size cylinders by load, pressure, speed, and mounting — no guesswork.

Multi-brand sourcing.

If our stock brands don’t have what you need, we’ll find it through our network.

FAQs

Can I bring in an old hydraulic cylinder to match a replacement?

Absolutely — walk-ins are welcome at our Mishawaka counter Mon–Fri. Bring the old cylinder and we’ll measure bore, stroke, rod diameter, and port configuration on the spot to find the right replacement.
Yes. We spec and source custom hydraulic cylinders to your exact bore, stroke, rod size, mounting style, and pressure rating. Lead times vary by configuration but most custom builds ship in 2–6 weeks.
Enerpac and Yuken are our primary lines. Roemheld cylinders are available for workholding applications. We source additional brands through our manufacturer network.
For standard cylinders, yes — we can source repair kits and seals through our manufacturer network. Call us with the cylinder brand, model number, and any markings and we’ll quote the kit.
