​Garbage truck cylinders are typically manufactured from high-strength steel and control key functions such as the compaction plate, the tailgate, and the lifting mechanism of the truck.

Compaction Cylinders: Ensure maximum compaction of waste inside the body. Double-acting cylinders with high pressure resistance are preferred.
Lifting Cylinders: Enable the loading and unloading of waste containers. They require fast operation and high durability.
Tailgate Cylinders: Control the safe opening and closing of the rear door. These cylinders are often equipped with safety valves.

Key Features

• Double-acting working principle

• High-pressure resistant sealing elements

• Protective coatings against dust, mud, and external factors

• Wear-resistant, hard chrome-plated piston rods

Due to heavy workloads and demanding operating conditions, garbage truck cylinders require regular maintenance. Seal replacements, oil leak checks, and piston surface inspections are essential to ensure long-lasting and reliable performance.
