Designed for the truck and mobile equipment industries, rod wipers come standard on every hi-lift cylinder; as well as bearing blocks on the longer strokes.

APSCO valve and fitting kits are available for all cylinders, making installation efficient and easy.

In the past dump bodies with higher sides and gates, had to sacrifice bed width to accommodate the larger cylinders needed to lift the gate, while staying within DOT regulations. Understanding our customer’s needs, APSCO’s engineers applied our experience and innovation to eliminate the sacrifice, while remaining cost effective. Our twin high lift cylinder provides all the necessary force required for taller gates, while fitting in a footprint that is 4” wide.

Our new round cylinder design was developed in response to OEM initiatives to take weight out of their trailer and body designs. Our innovative design eliminates the traditional tie rods and end caps resulting in weight savings of up to 60% over traditional designs. Available in 4” bores, it is a very versatile design
